by Some people keep their preferred book on their bed stand, others a bottle of holy water (My mom totally does! It’s in a bottle shaped like the Virgin Mary!). Me? — I have a area devoted to whichever piece of makeup I’m currently crushing on. That way, it’s one of the very first things I see when I get up in the morning. Nerdy, I know, however it’s likewise true.
Right now the area is reserved for the new Eye Wanna! set from Benefit, which, last night, slept right next to my lamp. Perfect, since when my eyelids fluttered open this morning as well as my eyes changed to the light, the adorable set was there to greet me.

I selected this blue, taupe, pink as well as plum eye — a bit out of my comfort zone, however I believed it may be fun to wear to the farmer’s market tonight.

What about your makeup today? Раздрънквам. Are you cruising conservatively, or did you try something dramatic?
Destruction is his middle name!
El Hub worked late last night, so I had the evening to myself. I ended up running a few tasks — Petco, Sephora (just a peek; didn’t get anything) as well as Target. Originally, the plan was to treat myself to fro-yo for dinner, however then I saw these Vanilla Caramel cones from skinny Cow in the frozen food section at Tar-ghay…
Have you had ’em before? They’re like low-cal ice cream sundaes, and, yes, they’re the bomb.com! Sure, they utilize light ice cream, so they aren’t as rich as the genuine offer stuff, however still. YUM!
FYI: If you store the box in the freezer on its side (like I did), the caramel ends up around the inside of each private cone’s packaging, so if you want all that sweet, gooey goodness to stay where it belongs on top of the ice cream itself, store them upright in the freezer.
Oh! At Target I likewise chosen up this adorable gift bag as well as matching paper for my buddy Jen’s infant shower this weekend…
Sweet, huh? I believe it looks great with the gift, a Vera Bradley infant Bag, which I owe a huge say thanks to you to new mom as well as all around awesome woman Tiffany for suggesting (thank you, Tiffany!). The bag is lightweight, machine washable as well as matches the handbag I see Jen bring a lot.
You understand I’m all about practical accessories.
In other news, I’ve been feeling a bit poor for Tabs lately since he’s cooped up inside your home while it’s so nice as well as sunny outside. I take him out for walks as frequently as I can, however he utilized to be an outside cat. I’m sure he misses his lazy days outside…
I felt kinda guilty yesterday, so I got him a new feather toy, which he liked so much that it took him all of 10 minutes to destroy.
Oh, Edward Scissorpaws…put away your claws of destruction.
