increase as well as shine, morning glory! fantastisk morgen! I may or may not have just ingested what may, technically, be referred to as a dessert for breakfast, as well as while part of me feels like I shouldn’t tell you about this cake from Trader Joe’s since its health and wellness benefits are…beyond questionable, one more part of me does since it’s SO DANG DELICIOUS.

I don’t understand what’s going on with this brownie pumpkin blondie confection, however it’s crazy addictive. It’s so great that you have to close your eyes when you take a bite. It’s that serious!

REKLAME

If a pumpkin cake satisfied a carrot cake that satisfied a white chocolate/slash pecan fantasy, this would be their progeny. Like…I’m not usually into white chocolate chips, however I’m around them in this. Normally, I’m not a fan of chocolate as well as pumpkin together, however they are WORKIN’ here.

Mmm… The crumb is so light it just melts in your mouth. best with a cup of hot coffee.

Så ja! You’ll either like me or dislike me since I told you about this. ? Or, perhaps you’ll like as well as dislike me, hahaha! now I recognize why this was the last box on the shelf when I saw it at TJ’s. people are addicted!

En grundlæggende daglig makeup look, der passer i din hånds hånd

, skal jeg aflevere det til disse produkter …
Bare et hurtigt tip, som makeup ikke behøver at være for kompliceret.

Jeg kiggede på makeup, som jeg måske hellere faktisk medbringer palmen af ​​den ene hånd!

REKLAME

Det er ikke-Tradewuss, naturlig udseende makeup, som jeg plejede at gå til middag samt vinduesopkøb med Fam-Bam i lørdag, så meget lidt basebeskyttelse med en ultra ren tonet fugtighedscreme samt blød, næppe-der farve på mine låg, læber såvel som kinder. Der er ligeledes den teeniest, mindste fløj på de ydre hjørner.

Foringen var den mest “komplicerede” (luft citater) del. For det første trak jeg en linje af sort væskeforing langs mine øvre lash linjer, derefter fløjede ud enderne. Derefter lagdede jeg en lysfarvet liner direkte på toppen, stoppede omkring tre fjerdedele af metoden fra det indre hjørne til det ydre hjørne. Jeg gjorde dette for at åbne mine øjne lidt, så de ser lidt mindre hooded.

Min makeup på en masse weekender ser ud som dette.

Makeup bruges i dette udseende

Base: covergirl ren frisk hud mælk nærende fundament i 590 tan / rig

Blush: Mac Glow Play Blush i Grand

Brows: Mac Fjern pande gel

Læber: Mac Yash (fra højt og fjern indsamling)

Vipper: it kosmetik superhero mascara

LINER: Charlotte Tilbury Liquid Liner (Sort Liquid Liner) samt Metropolitan Decay Scorch (Lighter Pencil Liner)

Søndag med faner katten, makeup samt charme blog maskot, vol. 622

Jeg forstår ikke præcis, hvordan det skete, da jeg troede, at jeg var pensioneret fra assisterende liv, men på en eller anden måde blev jeg roped til at forberede en række zoomklasser til Rosie i dag. Tilsyneladende har hun været mentor astrofysik på siden, ud over at være Connor’s # 1 Gal Pal. En stor del af det var helt over mit hoved, men Rosie syntes at forstå, hvad hun talte om. Hun var virkelig ganske god til mig såvel som ikke kastet noget eller swat på mig, da jeg ikke kunne få ligningerne rigtigt.

Alt dette er at sige, at Rosie er ekstremt begejstret over at gå tilbage til institutionen næste måned. Hun bad mig om at gøre hende til en festlig krave, såvel som specifikationerne var ned til millimeteren. Det var en yderst anderledes oplevelse i forhold til at arbejde sammen med faner, hvilket giver mening; Hun er en anden kat. Med faner var mode stil meget mere af en økologisk couture proces, mens Rosies planer var omfattende såvel som præcise.

REKLAME

Tilsyneladende er tal hendes forte. Der kan man bare se? Jeg opdager noget nyt om hende hver dag. Jeg på en eller anden måde overtalte hende til at tage disse billeder, selvom hun fortalte mig gentagne gange, “Jeg er ikke en model. Jeg er en astrofysikist! ” Jeg forsøger at overtale hende, at hun kan gøre begge dele.

Tabs (A.K.A. “The Master”)

Det kunne selvfølgelig ikke være søndag med faner uden et par billeder af legenden selv.

Ly i lokalitet / social distancering / homeschooling aktivitet: sjov med fotografering

søger efter noget sjovt, akademisk såvel som interaktiv til at afslutte med din bit en? Prøv at vise dem præcis, hvordan du bruger videokameraet på din telefon til at tage billeder af den fremragende udendørs, mens du er på en tur. Se verden med deres øjne!

Hver morgen, regn eller skinne, uden at fejle, under opholdet i Home-Home, er vi under lige her i Californien, Connor Claire såvel som jeg går ud en tur rundt i kvarteret, så vi kan få frisk luft, Stretch vores ben, samt få alllllll the wiggles ud. Vi er typisk ud af en time, hvilket er tilstrækkelig tid til at bære hende ud før hendes lur, såvel som den lur tid er gylden! (Jeg vil typisk gøre noget arbejde eller fange i en træning.)

Nogle gange vil vi bare tilfældigt strejfe rundt og inspicere blomster såvel som state hej til samfundskatte, men andre gange vil jeg forsøge at gøre en meget mere struktureret udenfor aktivitet for at holde tingene interessante, som denne: opdager præcis, hvordan man tager billeder.

REKLAME

Connor tog disse billeder af vores nabolag …

Du har bestemt ikke nogen form for elegant udstyr. Din telefon (ideelt med en varig situation samt en skærmbeskytter i situation med utilsigtede dråber) eller et gammelt digitalt videokamera vil fungere fint.

Du har ligeledes ikke kravet om omfattende fotografering. Med telefoner i disse dage tager billederne næsten.

Connors hænder er stadig ekstremt små, så jeg hjælper hende med at holde videokameraet, mens hun tager sine billeder, men andre end det gør hun alle de udøvende kunstdirektørbeslutninger. Når vi går rundt, såvel som hun ser noget, ønsker hun at tage et billede af, hun fortæller mig at stoppe, såvel som jeg tager telefonen / kameraet ud. Jeg hjælper hende med at vælge, om hun vil have billedet lodret eller vandret, så rammer vi skuddet, såvel som hun skubber udløserknappen.

Et par ting at huske på

Stadig som statuer: For et klart, skarpt billede vil du såvel som din bit vil gerne stå så stadig som muligt for at reducere kameraets bevægelse. Jeg har connor gøre en smule “wiggle dance” eller køre et par cirkler, såvel som da når det er på tide at tage billedet, som vi foregiver at være statuer såvel som stå så stadig som muligt.

Vælg et tema: Tænk på at vælge en stil, før du begynder din tur, som blomster i dit kvarter, hunde eller tal. Vores stil til vores nyeste fotografering var “tegn på forår”, som binder ind med hvad vi laver til førskole homeschool i denne uge.

CRAZY OM COLLAGES: Hvis du kan udskrive billeder derhjemme, skal du udskrive dit barns foretrukne billeder, samt få dem til at lime skudene i en collage.

Denne aktivitet er heller ikke kun for børnene. Præcis hvad med at strække dine fotograferingsmuskler også? Brug din telefons videokamera på dine vandreture uden for at fil, der flytter dig!

have a tasty Saturday!
Oh, you guys. Parenting during a pandemic: it is not for the faint of heart. like lots of people, El Hub as well as I have had to make some hard decisions about sending our youngster back to school, so it’s been a rough week… So rough that even lipstick might barely get me with it. however you know.

Part if me is relieved, as well as part of me is, like, “Well, what occurs if/when there’s a second wave? Or what if the vaccines don’t work?” I’ve been “adulting” quite intensely lately, as El Hub as well as I have seem to have severe discussions about difficult things, oh…every two seconds.

On the glass-half-full side, at least it’s not the zombie apocalypse! , Which would be about 100 times harder. Our metaphorical boat is still above water.

On that note, here’s some levity! This has kept me afloat this week…

My youth on a plate

You understand those foods that take you back to your childhood? Filipino mung bean stew (ginisang mungo) does that for me. We had it at least when a week during the week when I was growing up. It’s simple to make as well as oh-so fulfilling.

Mung beans look as well as taste a bit like lentils. When you cook them, they soften to an nearly creamy consistency.

Don’t even believe about serving it atop cauliflower rice.
There are lots of different riffs on this stew, which doesn’t have extremely lots of ingredients, however my preferred has bacon as well as spinach. as well as pancetta, shallot, garlic, dried mung beans (of course), beef broth, water as well as fish sauce.

My mommy as well as daddy always cooked it in a pot on the stove, however if you do it that method you have to soak the beans beforehand, as well as they take permanently to cook in a pot. If I get impatient, they don’t turn out as soft as well as creamy as I want them to be, so now I make it in the immediate Pot. In 10 minutes the beans are cooked perfectly.

Here’s what you do!

Saute a pack of chopped pancetta (I get the pre-diced bundle at Trader Joe’s) in the immediate Pot up until the fat has rendered, as well as add 1 chopped medium shallot as well as 3 tablespoons of chopped garlic. continue to saute up until great as well as fragrant, as well as then turn off the heat.

Add 2 cups of beef broth, 1 cup of water, as well as 1 cup of rinsed mung beans (I did not soak them).

Cook on high pressure on the Bean setting for 10 minutes, as well as then utilize the immediate Pot’s quick release to release the heavy steam (be careful!). then add fish sauce to taste, as well as throw a few handfuls of spinach in there. stir up until wilted.

To get the full Filipino experience, you have to serve it on top of white rice. ??

If you don’t have fish sauce around, you can likewise utilize ordinary salt to flavor the stew, or try a different sauce that has a salty undertone, like soy sauce, tamari or perhaps even Worcestershire sauce. It’ll modification the flavor profile, however as long as it’s yummy, right? Og hvad så?

Instant Pot saves the day!
I made this a few days ago, as well as it did me a world of good. I’ve been missing my family, as well as this tastes just like home.

Oh! — I gotta provide a shout-out to my Instagram friend Beverly. She articles Filipino recipes every Friday, as well as she made this meal in her stories last week, which got me craving for it.

For the like of granny panties

Allow me to provide you some area for a preemptive “thank you” since your granny panty-lovin’ heart will be permanently altered for the much better after you buy this six-pack of Fruit of the Loom Women’s Breathable Micro-Mesh Low-Rise Briefs from Target for $13.99.

Say “yes” to underpants.
I’m normally a cotton undies kinda woman because of being unusually specific about breathability, however even though these are 93% Polyester as well as 7% Spandex, the micro-mesh produces a great breeze that cascades over the mountains of your booty. The material is likewise wetness wicking.

The material is incredibly soft as well as easily lightweight. No pulling or tugging either.

Even though these are allegedly “low-rise,” the waistband still goes up quite high, so my stomach still feels covered up sufficient when I’m using high-rise pants.

The sizing is quite on point too.

SELV TAK!

“Alone” on the history channel

EHRMAHGOODNESS. I like as well as dislike this show. It’sEn sandhedskonkurrence, hvor 10 personer (vildmarkfagfolk såvel som overlevende, der forstår, hvad de laver) bliver faldet i en hård, fjernt vildmark sted alt af sig selv såvel som med begrænsede bestemmelser, såvel som den person, der varer af Land længst vinder en halv million dollars.

Jeg kan lide det. Jeg opsiger det op før sengen såvel som kinda halvtur det, mens jeg strækker mig. Så hvis jeg beskæftiger mig med ned på min yoga mat under due pose, kan jeg bare hænge tilgængelig i et par minutter såvel som halv-lyt uden at savne meget. Men det er et interessant show! Jeg er kun rustet til at styre biler og lastbil camping (jeg skal have et brusebad med rindende vand samt et brusebad samt toilet i nærheden. Disse er ikke omsætningspapirer.), Så jeg opdager meget.

Jeg ville trykke ud selv før de faldt mig, tbh.

Det er ligeledes interessant præcis, hvor så meget koger ned til held. Selv de allerbedste uddannede, mange erfarne deltagere ofte underkommende til grundlæggende rotten held. Det handler ikke altid om den mest kompetente person, der gør det til slutningen. Ofte er det bare den person, der håndterer at undvige meget mere af mor naturens metaforiske kugler.

Anyway, det er ligeledes, hvorfor jeg samtidig ikke kan lide dette show – da han efter El Hub nyder omkring fem episoder, begyndte han at få ideer. Sidste søndag gik vi på en vandretur med nærbillede af Indian Valley Nature Preserve, samt han besluttede at lave en bue samt pil udnytte materialer han opdagede på sporet.

Nu er han dækket af gift eg.

Og hvorfor er han dækket af gift eg? Nå, da han lavede sin bue såvel som pilen ud af gamle tørpispisning eg grene uden at realisere det.

SUK.

Rosies nye rolle: Babydoll

Sidste, men absolut ikke mindst, fortsætter jeg med at fange disse to besties, der krammer såvel som at spille sammen, såvel som det er den sødeste ting. Rosie er så så tålmodig. Hun lader Connor behandle hende som hendes spædbarns dukke. Connor kjoler hende op i dukke tøj samt omslag hendes poter omkring bamser såvel som fyldte dyr.

Anywho, det er hvad jeg har været så meget som i denne uge hidtil. Præcis hvordan har du det?

Makeup and appeal blog Monday Poll, Vol. 646

I hope good surprises find you this week.

So…what is the Monday Poll?

Fremragende spørgsmål! It isn’t, in contrast to its name, an actual poll, like with little clicky buttons. Det er bare en liste over fem meget mere eller mindre tilfældige spørgsmål, jeg har postet på denne blog hver mandag morgen for de tidligere quadrillion år (siden 2007). Jeg elsker at læse dine svar, og det hjælper mig med at få min uge til en god start. ?

1. One must-have product you keep in your purse in any way times (besides your wallet, keys and phone)?

I would love to answer this with something quirky, like a tube of green paint or an ice cream scoop (both of which have been in my little black backpack lately), but the real answer is something decidedly a lot more functional — an asthma inhaler. So not exciting, but necessary!

2. What’s your favorite pie?

Still trying to figure this out, which is why I recently embarked upon what I call “The epic Pie Quest of Fall/Winter 2020.” It’s why I tried making lemon meringue pie for the first time last week.

REKLAME

As of this morning, I’m about 80% sure my favorite’s pecan pie, but I’m leaving wiggle room in case I find something I like more.

3. One thing you still have from your childhood?

Three scars, none of which I remember getting. I’ve just always remembered having them, but I’ve been told how they appeared. two of them are small oval-shaped marks, one on each shoulder, which were from immunizations I got as a kid, and I also have a tiny divot on my forehead that I got from chicken pox when I was four.

4. Eyeliner: purple or bronze?

BEGGE! but if I had to choose one, I’d opt for a dark plummy purple.

5. What color was your prom dress?

It was a black skirt with a white top, which was surprisingly conservative now that I think about it. I took a lot of fashion risks when I was in high school and dressed kinda wacky, so I’m shocked I didn’t opt for something colorful.

6. least favorite color?

Baby poo green, blah!

7. What’s the weirdest word in the English language?

Gaffel. No question about it. because when you say “fork” over and over again, it starts to sound like nonsense. Fork, fork, fork, fork, fork!

8. stairs or elevator?

Stairs, because 1) I wear tennis shoes anywhere now so my footwear is no longer an obstacle (a legit issue for me back in the early aughts), and 2) I gotta get my steps in whenever and wherever I can.

9. A makeup skill you’re pretty good at?

Dainty winged liner is my jam, lady. I can do it pretty swiftly on the fly!

Dette er, hvad den første dag i julepause lignede ‘runde disse dele. Først gjorde Coycoy min Lewk, og da jeg bad hende om at nedbryde de væsentligste ting, sagde hun: “Det er fed. Det er mode. Det er et overskæg. ” ?

Så gjorde hun sin egen fotd.

På denne note, denne uges læsning!

Fordi swratching er på lockdown, har mange skønhed elskere været afhængig af Selfie Technology til næsten “prøv, før du køber.”

Summer faves and Raves: Neutrogena Skin care

good mornin’! happy Friday to you. ? I hope your day is getting off to a good start.

Simply for discussion purposes, here are a few drugstore Neutrogena faves I’ve been loving lately…

REKLAME

Ultra gentle daily Cleanser

This paraben-, phthalate- and sulfate-free bad boy’s made for all skin types, but it works extra well for sensitive skin (including acne-prone peeps like moi). This oil-free face wash whisks away oil, sweat, makeup and anything else on your face without stripping your skin. I’ve loved this cleanser for years, and I typically return to using the Foaming formula in the summer because of how quickly it removes leftover sunscreen and makeup from the day. gode sager!

$9.99 for a 12-oz. flaske med en pumpe.

Neutrogena Shampoo Anti-Residue Formula

This basically brings my hair back from the dead! ?‍ If you lean on smoothing hair products to control frizz and remove leftover residue from shampoo, conditioner and styling products, this gentle but effective clarifying shampoo is SO money. It’s made for all hair types, including color-treated manes, and I use it once or twice a week in place of my regular shampoo to deep clean my roots and strands. Afterwards, my hair looks and feels more voluminous.

$6.99 for a 6-oz bottle.

Ultra sheer face mist Sunscreen 55

I literally — literally — never leave home without this because I always have a bottle in my little black backpack. I usually do a mineral sunscreen before I leave the house (Elta MD), but I like to touch up with this physical sunscreen when I’m out and about. It’s a sheer, non-sticky liquid sunscreen that feels lightweight and comfortable. I mist a few few pumps in my hands, and then work the liquid onto my neck, arms, face and wherever else I want/need sun protection.

$17.49 for a 3.5-oz. flaske med en pumpe.

Soothing clear Turmeric Jelly makeup Remover

This soothing, lightweight makeup removing gel for dehydrated and/or acne-prone skin melts into my skin, and the turmeric formula smells great to me! — kinda like ripe orange studded with cloves. good for removing small-to-moderate amounts of face makeup. That said, if you regularly wear long-wearing, heavy-duty face paint or waterproof mascara or liner, you’ll need major backup.

$6.97 for a 5-oz. flaske med en pumpe.

Soothing clear Turmeric Mist

This lightweight and refreshing oil-free moisturizing mist won’t make your skin sticky, and it’s a nice extra to have on hand if you don’t mind another step in your skin care routine. free of sulfates, silicones, mineral oils and parabens.

$9.99 for a 4.2-oz. spray dåse.

Radiant setting Spray healthy Skin

When I spray this directly on top of my makeup when I’ll be wearing a mask out in public, my base doesn’t transfer onto my mask. ?

Your NYE celebration outfit for this year — pajama pants or leggings?

You decide to do a NYE makeup look this week (just for the heck of it!). between the following two options, do you choose colorful smokey eyes or duo-chrome glittery lids?

How about graphic liner or pink eyeshadow?

Which would you rather have for a NYE hairdo — a big, bangin’ blowout or a sleek high pony?

Go to sleep early or stay up all night long?

You and your quarantine crew decide to have a Zoom “beauty night” in for NYE. What diy treatments do you choose (pick two)?

Facial with the works

Spa-style Mani/Pedi

Deep-conditioning hair mask and an at-home gloss

Who’s making your NYE meal — you or someone else?

How do you show up to your Zoom NYE party with your friends — full-on glam with hair, nails, makeup and a feather boa, OR barefaced in your jammies?

Your NYE celebration outfit for this year — pajama pants or leggings?

Leggings, y’all. High-waisted in a warm, soft cotton material. Matte black, baby. As you can see, I’m a leggings aficionado, HAHAHA! Plus, with leggings, I don’t have to deal with the hem of my pants dragging along the ground, which is otherwise known as “petite lady pajama problems.”

REKLAME

You decide to do a NYE makeup look this week (just for the heck of it!). between the following two options, do you choose colorful smokey eyes or duo-chrome glittery lids?

I’ll choose duo-chrome glittery lids because 1) there’s much more room for error, and 2) they require less blending.

How about graphic liner or pink eyeshadow?

Pink eyeshadow.

Again, much more room for error. ?

Which would you rather have for a NYE hairdo — a big, bangin’ blowout or a sleek high pony?

So, in theory, I would love a sleek high pony because it would get my hair out of my face and probably be faster to do. plus — bonus! — I swear, a high and tight ponytail takes 10 years off my face! Unfortunately, two hours in I’d have take it out because sleek ponytails always give me a headache.

So, this is my long-winded way of saying that I’d choose the blowout!

Go to sleep early or stay up all night long?

I would try to stay up all night…but I’d still falling asleep on the couch at 9:30 (because 9:30 is the new 12); however, knowing this about myself, I’d set my alarm for 11:45PM and wake up just in time to do all of my Filipino old lady NYE’s rituals, like opening the front door at midnight to welcome the good luck in, and jumping up and down at midnight while banging pots and pans to invite the good spirits into the house, etc., etc.).

Then I’d quickly fall back asleep at roughly 12:05…

You and your quarantine crew decide to have a Zoom “beauty night” on NYE. What diy treatments do you choose (pick two)?

Facial with the works

Spa-style mani/pedi

Deep-conditioning hair mask and an at-home gloss

The facial and the mani/pedi!

Who’s making your NYE meal — you or someone else?

Probably me, but there’s also a chance the good people of In-N-Out will be the sole purveyors of our NYE repast.

How do you show up to your Zoom NYE party with your friends — full-on glam with hair, nails, makeup and a feather boa, OR barefaced in your jammies with a feather boa?

REKLAME

Barefaced in my jammies, 100%! and I will also be wearing a messy topknot and glasses.

Your friendly neighborhood charm addict,

Karen?
