Pretty Things… Ironing Board Covers from Etsy

When I first moved to the city, we didn’t have an ironing board.  It took up too much space, we rationalized.  We had far more important things (loads and loads of clothes) to fit into our extremely limited closet space.  It was only after I’d burned myself several times (attempting to iron garments while wearing them) that we succumbed, deciding that yes, after all, an ironing board really was a necessity.

Family in Town!

I’m so excited…  My mom and sisters will be in town this weekend… and the forecast is projecting low 50’s and SUN!

Every Beauty Junkie’s Dream…

Every year, I look forward to Cosmetic Executive Women Product Demonstration.  It’s basically a demonstration of all the best beauty products that launched over the course of the year.  It’s a lot of fun.  Anyone and everyone (women, at least) in the beauty industry stops by – at least to pick up their gift bag.  I get to catch up with old co-workers… all the while, sampling fun products, sipping wine, and nibbling on delicious treats.
