I've seen more of my sister these last few days than I have for ages. She was here until midnight a few days ago and today she's been here four times already. Her first visit this morning she was still wearing her pjs and eating her toast when she arrived. It's good she only lives a few doors away.
It's been a gorgeous day today, I was hoping to go for a drive to the beach once James got home from work but he's late so its not to be. Shame, it was lovely to see the sun again. Corey's gone out with his friends and man, does it take effort to find out where and who with. I ask and he just keeps saying he's going out, but I told him unless I know where he's going and who with he was going nowhere.
A tip for you all. Using free weights right after putting on moisturiser is not a good idea. I had to hang on to those babies real tight or would have taken out a window.
I've watched the first two episodes of Southland and love it! It's such a gritty, fast paced show that kept my attention all the way through. I'm still learning the characters but want to know more about them, which I think is always a sign of a good show. If I'd have had time I would have mainlined the whole season, as it is I'm having to take them slow.
I just made chicken in black bean sauce and it was delicious! I wish I'd discovered black bean sauce before before it's really tasty. Now I just need to work out how to stop having soggy vegetables and I'm set. I may have to get the steamer out but it always seemed like yet another thing to fuss with when you could much more easily boil the veggies. Of course that then leads to eating runner beans and having water squirt out of the middle.
I wish James would hurry up from work, he's got my Avon order and I have plans for a long shower and my new peel-off face mask. They're my favourites, they indulge my need to pick at things and have the bonus of making it look like your skin is falling off in a zombie fashion.
Ha. He's back. Come to me showery peel off goodness!

You're a terrible parent, demanding that he tells you where he's going!
Have fun in the bathroom!

That sounds like a great plan - how was it?

It was awesome!
I like face masks in general, there's something satisfying about slapping on beauty stuff and relaxing in a steamy bathroom, but the peel off ones are just cool!

In other news, I totes laughed at you and your free weights. There, I admitted it.

Man, laugh away. I was after. It's such a rookie mistake to make.

Re moisturizer: I don't know what your current routine is, but I suggest moisturizing immediately after showering/washing because it goes in easier and leaves you feeling less slippery or sticky. Of course it also depends on the type of moisturizer you use, but I've found that helps. :)

Well, right now I keep my moisturiser in my desk drawer and have got into the habit of applying it after breakfast, which is about an hour after washing up. The problem is I've started doing my half hour around after breakfast too, which led to the slipping issues. Most obvious solution is to take the moisturising to the bathroom, which it should have been all the time in all honesty.

If the steamer is too much faff, what about microwaving the veggies, for as short a time as you can get away with, with just a little bit of water, or, if they're frozen, just the water from their own ice? That's how I do non-soggy broccoli.

You know, I never even considered nuking them with their own ice. I microwave them anyway but suspect I'm using far too much water as I have issues about them drying up and bursting into flames. I'm going to try your method.
