Playing when sick

Playing when sick

I'm still sick on the couch, but well enough to play on the computer.  Wish I was out wearing this instead of my jammies.  Hope y'all are healthy and enjoying the new year.

Lip options

Lip options


I do not own any lipstick and I'm considering buying some.  I even had to borrow some from my future SIL on my wedding day.  My make-up maven friend has given me lip gloss the past two Christmases.  I wonder if she is trying to tell me something.  Now to find a shade that will not scare me when I look in the mirror.  Any color suggestions for a blue eyed blonde? 

    p.s. No plumping needed, already have full lips.

Cookies & wish lists




Yesterday I made molasses cookies for my office since we're going to be putting in long hours for a few days.   And for some reason I keep on thinking about my wish list and the Chanel Large Shopping Bag.  I'm torn between silver or gold hardware.   I wonder if it has anything to do with the crazy amount of money the hubs has spent on his latest bicycle.  He just bought a Trek Madone 6 series to replace his other Madone & it is a pretty penny.  Speaking of wish list, I  also found out that while on the cruise we can take a cooking class with a Chef in Mexico.   That sounds right up my alley.

Wish List

I know that there is a group of believers out there that say if you write something down, it will come true.  I am going to follow that logic here on my blog.  I will start with a few today and add to the list.  Some of the items are frivolous and I readily admit to that.   Of course, like so many, I would love lower gas prices, no more wars and food & shelter for all.  

A pool with the perfect deck and landscaping.  My  house is 100+ years old and would look out of place with a trendy Mediterranean backyard.  I really would love a salt water pool and some type of covered structure or a cabana.

I have a thing for purses and my closet is showing it.   A classic Chanel bag like the one pictured below would be a lovely addition to the masses.

I just went on line to search and was shocked at how many sites selling fakes are out there.  If it is too good to be true, it is a fake!   I do admit that I get bored with bags quickly to the benefit of family and co-workers.  I think I am going to start selling the ones I no longer use on Ebay.   That can be my Chanel starter fund. 

 

A vacation in which I travel and get to learn more about food/cooking.  The hubs & I enjoy going to new places,  but I long to go back to Italy to cook.  He wants to do a biking/wine tour in Tuscany so I think this will happen since he is on board.

 I am willing to do one even closer to home.  I adore Charleston and a food tour by Culinary Tours of Charleston  or one of the many other companies there would be fun.

A butterfly garden that attracts butterflies!    I followed the Better Homes and Gardens plan to a T and the butterflies keep going back to a plant that has been in my yard since before we bought the house.  I know it will take a few years to fully mature.  I keep on adding to the basic plan and I pray that they will love their new garden.

 That is the start to my list. I will keep you posted if any come true.
