Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a mild fruit fly issue, but even worse, something is infested with moths. I may just throw out on all my grains without looking.

even around my eyes to good success

Was there supposed to be a "not around the eyes"? I'm assuming the monistat is like the default primer, right? Not the evening or luminising one? I'm trying to make up my makeup shopping list for the weekend. I suspect I'll go one more iteration with Smashbox, and I need to find a really soft black eyeliner pencil. And maybe Black Honey lip gloss. But the reviews on the dual product complain a lot about the cap coming off.

What kind of mascara are people using? My daily stuff is the Blinc mascara, because I like the tubing, and the way it comes off easy with soap and water, but is waterproof. Sephora said that was the only tubing mascara they had. Did it not take off?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I saw an entire Black Honey display at the Clinique counter at Macy's last week and thought of you. Of course, your mall may vary.

I use it around my eyes as default primer. SO CHEAP and works great.

But something happened this year and my body has gone to shit. So my lines around my eyes are bad and not even primer can fix it. I think it's plastic surgery time.

I'm just gonna chop the figs and boil them down then... Fig newtons! homemade! I'm not as excited as my homemade pop tarts. those things fucking rock the universe.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Blinc is the only tube I know of and it's the only thing that won't smudge under my eyes. So even when I am going for BIG lashes on top, I use that on the bottom. After years of smudge annoyance.

I'm just glad Sephora has it now. Used to be a pain to find. Though I don't know if they have all of the colors.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Which one? Because I have a Reed's in the fridge that's really good. It's the Extra Ginger one, so it has a lot of bite. I think the Reed's Original Ginger beer is kind of bleh.

I think it says extra ginger, but I wasn't impressed. I am hard to impress? I have three more, so we'll see.

Because books.

I need a good drugstore mascara. I was using the Cover Girl Lash Blast for a while (I like thicker rather than longer), but lately it seems to clump and dry out more easily.

I like the Clinique Lash Doubling, too, I just don't like to pay for it.

That's my mascara! But I only wear mascara when I'm dressing' up fancy.

Ok, I have a mess of stewed peaches (in rum!) and want to make something like coffeecake from it. Bakers, please suggest recipes. I figure I can adapt an applesauce-sub recipe, though I think the peaches are wetter, so will have to adjust.

Make an upside down cake! I bet you can just throw them where canned pineapple would go. And it would be teh yum.

I think they are too mushy for that- really resembles applesauce, but stringy rather than grainy.

This is my unfancy mascara, since I have some with a oblate spheroid brush that does some insane lifting and separating. And is mussy.

Blinc passes any all-day everyday tests I might have.

I was sure I'd seen some tubing mascara ads on TV, and didn't think it was Blinc.

Statistically, men are supposed to have longer lashes than women. Yet use them as such a signifier.

I am so nauseous I haven't eaten a full meal in two days. I'm going to try find a snack and at least get hydrated. Sadly, with the portacath, the manic need to hydrate isn't quite there anymore. But I still should.
