This and That

Good Friday to all of you! I don't have a recipe or a crafty project today.... just a little bit of this and a little bit of that.

1. Have I have mentioned my obsession with mascara? I love the black, gooey stuff.... I want my lashes long, thick and luxurious. And I love to try to brands. Ulta had a sale on Lorac mascara last week, so I picked up a tube of visual effects in black. So far, I love it! I always use a lash primer and when paired with this Lorac mascara, my lashes are fab. If you ever see it on sale, pick up a tube.

2. Miss A loves to color in the bath tub.... it makes bath time fun and creative. We have some wonderful bath crayons by Crayola... they wash off easily and don't leave any markings on your tub. BUT - the Alex star bath crayons are horrible. Santa gave her this star crayon in her stocking and it is awful. It leaves bright, waxy marks on your tub and has to be scrubbed with bleach to come off. And even after the bleach, you can still see streaks. And, it leaves marks on your skin. Miss A drew on my leg and I had purple and green stripes on my skin for the rest of the night. So, save your money and DON'T buy this product. Stick with the Crayola TaDoodles- they are great.

3. Miss A's 2nd birthday is going to be hear before I realize it, which means it is time for me to get my party planning rear in gear! I think we are going to have a girly farm theme party, with a color scheme of pink, red and turquoise. I have picked up some great $1 items from the Target Dollar Spot, but I still need lots of other stuff for her party. Games, food, decor - pass along your ideas!

4. Did you watch Grey's last night? Based on a twitter (@MrsPreppy) conversation last night, I am confident that I am in the minority with this next statement.... I am excited about a McBaby! This Lexie/Mark/Callie/Arizona love square storyline is definitely going to be interesting and the coming weeks should make for some good episodes. And like I said last night, I am strong enough in my love for Grey's Anatomy that I can handle the heat of being in the minority. ha!

5. I still have some things life in the Blog Sale SALE - All items are $5 + shipping.

Have a nice weekend!
