Brain Dump

I like makeup. I buy makeup. Too much of it at times. However I do not really know HOW to put on makeup. This is worsened by the fact that I don't like spending time getting ready. If makeup can't be applied in 5 minutes or less I want no part of it.

I am a sucker for products. I bought Smart Lash from the Derm Store in hopes that it will grow me some eyelashes. I have very sparse lashes and they tend to have falling out issues. Every month and a half it seems like, they start hurting, I rub them, they fall out and I look like I've been thru Chemo or something equally horrific on the eyes. I tried Latisse a year or so ago and it was really expensive, and seemed to give my lashes really thick roots that HURT! So Smart Lash it is. The box says I can see results in 7 days, and full results by 30 so I'm really hoping!

I made the BEST Tomato Pizza the other night! And it's super simple. I got a pizza crust from the grocery store, and the put a light coating of Philadelphia's Cooking Cream cheese on it-Italian Herb. Covered that with a light coating of Italian Blend Cheese, sprinkled some cut up ham on top of that, and the covered the entire top of the pizza with slices of tomatoes. mmmm.... And then sprinkled some more Italian Cheese on top of that, throw in the oven for 10 mins and voila!! 

My Mom makes her own Wheat pizza dough, and then actually grills all of this on their grill. I have no grill, and my bread machine is packed up. :) She also puts onion on, and sprinkles some basil as well. I forgot to buy either so again, yeah.. Anyways It is SO tasty, and I feel like it's pretty healthy too! I put three huge tomatoes on it. In retrospect I should have used Roma tomatoes because the smaller slices are much easier to eat, less mess, and cutting issues. But when I saw those big, beautiful, apple sized tomatoes I just couldn't handle myself.

I didn't clean out or get rid of anything in my apt this week. Apparently the cleaning bug has calmed down for a bit. Still trying to get rid of my bookshelf and old entertainment center. 

Excited for this weekend, Bryna is de-fluffing my hair Friday night. Badly needed, I am resembling Simba yet again. And then Sunday after church Holly and I are meeting for lunch and then watching a movie at my place! I picked the movie and it has the potential to either be really good, or epic egregious. Knowing our taste and our luck it's going to be the latter.

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
