up at 7:30

i bought the material for my costume. i settled on a color (paprika) that wasn't what i originally had in mind (light aqua blue), and was just a little disappointed. but i got it at a really good price ($20 for almost 4 yards). then i did an image search this morning and was very happily satisfied. see for yourself.



what i've researched about the regency era described the clothing as light and airy, alot of white and having the greek goddess look. and i was thinking, 'even in fall and winter?' it's england for crying out loud. i was there in may (11 years ago. remember, john?) and it was cold and rainy. so i was very excited to see 'jane' in jewel tone colors not unlike the material i just bought.

i continue to get deliveries of my ingredients and supplies. yesterday, i received 80 lip balm tubes. and a couple days before, i received a shipment of oils. coconut, avocado, jojoba, castor, apricot kernel, olive, grapeseed, and shea butter. today, i should be getting some herbs and bottles. this credit card bill is going to be monstrous. good thing my secret cash stash should cover it. if all my readers bought one product... at least a lip balm, you know you need it. they'll be clear and in 2 shades of 'red' gloss. i found the perfect herb that lends it's color. don't put mystery chemicals on your lips any longer. no one knows the long term effects of ingesting petroleum jelly or what mineral oil seeping through your pores will do. be natural.

sweet lime, sweet life, sweet dreams, sweet skin

What can I say, great minds ALL think alike, and based on the fact we are both MGK's friend means we would definitely, without a doubt, get along superbly

Penelope is a fantastic movie...totally feel good, love yourself for who you are sort of flick. Course, Mr. McAvoy made it all the better being the guy who saw past the appearance to the real person..... I would totally have married his Johnny character
