I got my brows waxed. Whew. They were starting to talk to each other at night. Annoying.
I tried some Stila lip stain at the store, and while it's a pretty color, I am wearing it to see how long it lasts. I'm thinking that I might like Benefit's stain/gloss stick combo better, since the stain doesn't add moisture. Anyone used the Benefit lip stain? Likes, dislikes?
I also made it to the grocery store AND I got my Slacker Secret Santa present from Israel, which I squeed about in Good Riddance 2010! What a nice Saturday!
I think that enduring the wind and snow today means that I deserve some soda bread. I wonder if I can find some.
You absolutely deserve soda bread.
And huh, I totally let a pot boil dry while doing all the wrangling. Perhaps I should be less self-congratulatory. But, I did not burn down the house so at least I`m not on fire?
No wonder I`m still hungry. Ok, now to to get going on the laundry.
Regarding eliminating cheese, eggs, etc., to lower cholesterol, I've read a lot of boring-ass medical studies on it, and -- overall, in large population studies -- it's not really that effective.
Yeah, I've been reading the same thing. Basically I'm resigning myself to more oatmeal and going to the gym 5 days a week.
Which -- maybe I have a disconnect, here. When people make oatmeal at home, do they just cook it in water and then eat it plain?
Close to it. I'll add some fruit and a drizzle of something sweet, but it's a sugar explosion that I'm trying to avoid, not fat.
I love a savory breakfast!
Ooh. Thanks for that link, lisah! I totally prefer savory things for breakfast.
Even though I have a cold, I was thinking that I could maybe go outside and walk, but the sideways snow has convinced me to stay inside. I'll do laundry, and consider whether I currently have the lung capacity to clean the bathroom.
Ooh, what size were the Fluevogs, Jilli?
I am being strong and reselling two of the six dresses. And at least three of the petticoats. That way I should come close to breaking even.
Now I want oatmeal. I blame all of you.
Today has been a success. I don't know if it was the iron, B12, or Abilify, but I have felt great today and I made it through over 2 hours of karate. And I still have energy. I have a hair appointment at 6pm and I think I'll head out a while before that to go wandering.
Go, Suzi! Hooray, energy!
So, it sounds like the general idea of the savory oatmeal is to take stuff you might put in an omelet and have them on/in oatmeal instead. Even if that is not the idea at all, I'm going to try it because it sounds wonderful. I might even be able to talk my local diner into serving stuff to me that way - their omelettes always sound so good but I just can't eat that much egg.
Although right now I am full of chicken and stuffing and broccoli and will never need to eat again.
