This past weekend I did something I haven’t done in over four years—traveled solo. No kids, no husband, just me (and Baby 3). It was strangely liberating and also… just kinda strange.

Now that we covered what I like to cover up the face, let’s move northward on the face to.. the eyes! Again, this is just a list of what I like, what I’ve found is made well, delivers, and—in my opinion at least—is worth your money. So, on that note, onward!  NARS Hardwired eyeshadow palette  If […]

All I have the energy to type out right now is, I am so tired. At 16.5 weeks, I’m pretty sure I’m supposed to be over the exhaustion part, yet somehow, I’m not. So today I present to you a self-portrait of Pathetic:  I’ll be back with more tomorrow, when I will have something more meaningful […]

Let me just start out by saying this: I am not a beauty professional. I’m not trained in makeup or hair. BUT… (big “but”… haha. Okay, I’m juvenile. Moving on…) also, novice I am not.

It stands about 35 feet tall. Full, verdant and positively regal. Turning the corner of the sidewalk into my parents’ backyard, you would think that pine tree had been there for generations.

Welcome back to the work week! Hope your Thanksgiving weekend was wonderful… Now time to get back to the grind!

Well, friends, another Thanksgiving is in the books. How many weeks til our waistlines recover? 😀 This year was the first I hosted my family and friends, and I don’t mind saying—despite the days-long preparation and exhaustion—I think we nailed it.  I’m not saying it was a five-star meal, but we got good reviews on the […]

Here’s Part Two of my tour of the Four Seasons Resort Orlando, in which I reconnect with my inner child and absolutely kill a waterslide. Oh man.
