In Beauty Banter 1368948491.74 Desi, probably right and yes we too had sewing in junior high, made an apron, PJ's and a dress. Since I hated it so much and didn't know there was going to be a fashion show for the parents when finished I got what my mom and gram use to call a feed or grain sack, grain came in them but they had patterns, mine was all vegetable, cabbage, carrots, beans and tomatoes, yep, for my dress. I was embarrassed when I had to walk across the stage wearing that. It was to have a zipper on the side but I couldn't put a zipper in so I put hook and eye closures on the side of my dress. My PJ's were bright... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368906344.067 Janet, I don't sew at all. My gram was a dress maker and I never had anything bought till I was in the 10 th grade when she got sick. She made for a lot of people. She even made our winter coats, everything, made my prom gowns and so much wanted to make my wedding gown since she made one of my good friends that was 5 years older than me. She never used a pattern, would measure us/them, buy material and cut a pattern out of newspaper. I showed her a gown I wanted for one of my proms that was in a store window so she went to look at it than made it for me. My mom use to sew as well and was good... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368746359.397 Desi, lucky DS and DH like almost anything and I can pick anything out for either of them but then, I do know what they prefer and what they will wear from experience. I have already gotten things that ended up going to the Purple Heart or another of that type so, get what I know they like and wear now but even so, neither are very fussy and both wear an XL in tops and shorts since DS needs them for the length. Both are very very casual dressers, jeans and pullovers or shorts and pullovers, T shirt for every day and those golf type shirts with a collar for otherwise in summer. DS wears sandal... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368694076.67 I just signed in and my post I posted last night around this time is gone? Desi, yes, can't replace any and all are so different even in the same breed. Mickey is all little boy where Katy was a little lady even though she was 13 lbs and my Kayla, 4 lbs was a tom boy but all so affectionate especially Katy who had to keep giving kisses almost non stop. Kayla though was my eating buddy, loved to share and sat on my shoulder while I sat in front of the TV eating our dinner late night when DH came home from work. She always thought I made it for us to share. I use to enjoy going out shopping an... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368519841.92 Desi, same here, my OOO TE 7 + touch of foundation says nothing needed under that as well but I started putting either my OOO regenerist serum or my OOO think it is called wrinkle revolution or complex, something like that, is almost a thick serum and makes my face feel like silk but have to go easy with either of these things, less is certainly more for both of these products. I too am very glad he took me to see them and sit in them before just getting them just in case I really wouldn't have liked them, do of course, love them thank goodness. I think he learned from before after heari... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368434184.21 Desi, that is why DH took me to look at them Wednesday night, wanted to play it safe and make sure I like them before he went ahead like he does a lot but luckily this time he took me to look at them and sit in them first. I do really like them. He really knows about what I like and don't and is usually pretty good with that but for some reason these 2 huge Paul Bunyan ones he just fell in love with and felt he had to have them. They are now sitting in the middle of our living room till we find someone that would like them and if not, will call one of the rescue missions to come and take them... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368343519.14 Desi, so glad CB is home for Mother's Day, always nice anytime but now especially bet you are glad he is home. I too have loads of liners but so far love the crayon type of Ulta's. Janet, nice the cottage is so close, bet my friend wishes hers was as well since she won't go that distance by herself. Her DH use to drive home twice a week to check things out so, she really doesn't know yet what she is going to do. I really don't know anything about vit. K or what it does or doesn't do? We use to met a minister at lunch sometimes that had a pig valve put in. Oh boy do I love these chairs and the... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368228634.76 finally able to sign in. I could sign in but than it just kept saying, waiting for qvc.com and nothing ever happened. Janet, if you wear eye liner you have got to try the ELF liquid sheer(is what I got, the sheer) in a bottle with a sponge tip brush, works great. I never used a primer of any kind before but after reading so many love it here on the beauty boards I thought why not for $1 so picked it up and glad I did. You only put on a small amount and blend with your finger tips and let completely dry so I put it on first than apply my OOO TE 7 + touch of foundation, so my lips, brows than m... Continue Reading In Beauty Banter 1368002423.43 Janet, I found out the hard way after getting cosmetics at Walmart, won't take back once opened. How do you know if you like it if you didn't open it? I usually watch for the BOGO sales than get what I need. Their stuffed french toast is the best but I can in no way eat two of those. We went again today at 6:30 AM before we went to the doctor and I had a muffin, large fresh fruit cup, coffee and a glass of juice for $4.25. The fruit itself was well worth that. Desi, my feet are always warm. I don't wear socks even in the winter but do wear my Sketchers clogs that are fleece lined and my feet ... Continue Reading In TSV Talk 1368001158.33 I got 2 pair in chocolate, one black and one white. I plan on wearing one of the chocolate as slippers. It was raining today so I took my Orthaheels off and put on an old pair of birkies I wear in summer in bad weather, always thought they were so comfy. I couldn't wait till I got back home to get them off and put my Orthaheel TSV back on. I pre-ordered 2 pair through my insider, chocolate and black than after wearing them I ordered another in chocolate and a pair in white. For me anyway, they are the most comfortable shoe and sure helps my bad knee and back, love these. Continue Reading
