I am starting the great mascara hunt, I would love input on this subject!  I think this is gonna get expensive, I hope there are lots of Birchbox samples in my future

Today is day one with the “Colossal Volume Express”  meh…  I was not too impressed with this mornings application.  After several coats it looked good, but it takes several coats to get my desired effect.  I have sparse and thin lashes and I am looking for a Tammy Fae Baker look…  Not the complete look just the lashes.  I had several brands and suggestions on Instagram last night so it looks like this gonna be a long quest.

suggestions were in no particular order, 1. Volouminous Carbon Black 2. Maybelline The Falsies 3. Diorshow Blackout 4. MAC Haute and Naughty 5. Rimmel Scandaleyes in 001 Black,  Thank you Molly and Virginia for start…  I am going to comb the sale racks and keep adding to the collection, I am a girl on a mission.

Bonfire

Bonfire

Well here is a shot of the HUGE bonfire we had at our friends house for the annual fall birthday bash for T&J.  It is the first Saturday of each October.  Well that said there is always more food than ten armies can consume and even more booze, kegs and most years a band.  This year was quite a blast. Troopers made us shut down the band at about 1:30 in the morning.   E had a tad too much for one man, and spent much of the ride home puking his guts up and calling to the soles of his shoes though his esophagus.  Strangely he is about the most sober sounding drunk I have ever met…  I really try not to laugh when he feels so terrible but damn its funny.   Love you E, and I love having a chuckle gut splitting laugh at your expense even more…

My dinner tonight

My dinner tonight

Well remembering that I own a juicer and that I do not get enough veggies and fruits, I thought what the hell.  I will get it down and clean off the 6 years of kitchen dust and what ever else that took up residence on my poor neglected kitchen gem.  I remember the huge one that was in my grandmothers kitchen in Germany.  I also remember I loved the fresh carrot juice she made for breakfast.  So after hosing off the layers of abandonment, I ran some carrots and an apple, with a hand full of spinach through ole trusty yesterday and lo and behold I had fresh juice.  This morning I repeated the tasty goodness and had my normal protein shake and drove to work.  I felt oddly good today…  hum, coincidence? I wasn’t even hungry at lunch time.  I do know better than to skip lunch tho…  if I do by the time I get home I am so hungry that nothing is safe in my kitchen…  I will eat what ever holds still long enough.  So I settled for some soup and an apple.   I came home and WOW, still not ravenous.  I had stopped by costco and bought apples and carrots and a few other things to stuff in my long forgotten juicer, so I decided on a liquid dinner.  It is almost bed time and I think this might work…  *Fingers Crossed*
