Eyebrows

Monday, March 1st, 2010

I love Real Simple magazine. Fortunately, I got a subscription for a steal on Amazon-dot-com. Get this, it was only $5 for the whole year! (One mag off the supermarket rack costs $4.50, yikes)

In January, Sania Vucetaj a renowned eyebrow expert was in the mag and also on The Today Show. Pair the love of the mag with my love of The Today Show and I got a message sent out loud and clear. “You usually don’t need to remove much,” notes Vucetaj. So my secret revelation was I should let my brows have a break from plucking (except for he outliers -they need to go). Then I can ensure my arches and edges are correctly in line with her system.

Here is the “How-To” in case you were wondering or need help.

There are loads f other how-to’s on the site. (One old fave of mine is t-shirt folding).

Ch-ch-ch-check ‘em out… you MIGHT learn something awesome.

It should be noted that they do not have a bank of payphones at Metro Pointe. However, it is unknown whether they are pager-friendly or not.

Baby hats are sometimes very cute.

Yeah, I bought a Macramé plant hanger. Yep, and I put a plant in it. Uh-huh, and I hung it in my house. Believe it or not, it is cool an I like it. It turns out all the hooks in my 1970′s house were meant for this purpose.

I bought this little hot/cold water bag for future boo-boo situations. I hope Peter will appreciate its awesomeness.

This is right after one of our walks last week. His smile is pretty great.

I almost bought a “real” one of these the other day at The Container Store. I wasn’t sure about the size and fit of the plastic one from The Container Store. So I decided t make my own out of the cardboard flats from Peter’s food. It was super easy, a perfect fit and free.

We spent Valentine’s Day at Disneyland. It was super fun to be able to go run around like daters (without a stroller). I love Valentine’s day because I love pink, red, hearts, love, flowers, chocolates, and all it brings. We saw a couple of ladies on treasure hunts (engagements?) – that is a fun idea for sure.
