I've Got A Secret

I really don't have a secret, but I do have something to share!  I have the sweetest bloggy friend who lives right in my computer.  Okay she really lives in New York City.  Despite living in such a big city, Nikki lives the simple life.  And by simple, I really mean simple.  She loves to make everything.  From fabulous foods, to her own laundry soap, shampoo, and even lotions!  I wish I would be so willing to do the things she does.  But the fact is, I am not.  Which is why it is so great that she is offering to share a bit of her talents with all of you.

She and her mom make soaps.  That's their stuff right there.  They call themselves, "Olive Your Beeswax."  I have actually been lucky enough to try her soap once before.  The first time was because I won it.  This time is because she asked me to do a review and offered a giveaway. 

The soap I tried this time has aloe and eucalyptus in it.  The eucalyptus is great for fighting the cold/flu and the aloe is awesome for the skin.  I have been using it mainly for my face and let me tell you it really has made a huge difference in my skin.  I have adult acne.  Yeah.  It sucks.  But I haven't had a major breakout since I started using her soap.  And I got a compliment the other day that I had not heard in years.  "Your skin looks so soft and beautiful."  Made. My. Day.

So now Miss Nikki is offering one of you a soap of your choice.  What do you have to do?  Not much really.  I'm pretty easy going and she's a love!  Just comment here and go visit her as well.  Show her some love today.  That's it. 

Come back tomorrow for my first recap of the season for Dancing with the Stars!  It's going to be a great season.

Oh, she is darling! I just stopped by her blog, and lover her green/frugal tips, and she is just cute! I also have the lovely adult acne. I thought I wouldn't have to deal with that once I hit my twenties. Boy was I wrong! What a great product if it helps with that, and makes you feel beautiful.

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
