My new favorite things


Glo Minerals is my new favorite makeup. I don't know how I have lived without it. Karli showed up to dinner the other night and her skin looked flawless! When she told me she wasn't even wearing foundation, just powder from a compact, I had to go get it! I am generally opposed to mineral makeup (all that swirling and tapping just seems like an overly complicated waste of money,) but this stuff is phenomenal! I couldn't imagine not wearing foundation but I can seriously just wear the powder and it looks awesome! The best part is it's just a normal powder compact...no swirling or tapping required! And that's all you need! I bought mine at Fuschia spa at Dana Park.


Yes, I am totally obsessed with candles, air fresheners, and all other manner of things that create yummy smells in my house! I picked up this candle at Bath and Body the other day, mainly because it was 50 percent off, and I can't stop burning it! It is delicious. Jaimi keeps catching me hovering over the candle with my face near the flame. It smells that good. I have only had it for a week and it's half gone! I need to go pick up a few more while they're still on sale.


Have you seen Dexter yet? It is so good! This is not usually my type of show but every time I watch an episode, I find myself thinking about it the next day. I watched the first season on CBS where it apparently was pretty watered down compared to the Showtime version. I can't wait till season 2 comes out on dvd! I love Michael Hall who plays Dexter (his personality is so dry, it is totally hilarious) and it's set in Miami so it reminds me of home. All the episodes are on the CBS website. I HIGHLY recommend watching it if you haven't already!

Dexter is one of our favorite shows in my house. It is great! We watched it on CBS but we heard the same thing about the Showtime version. I love the fresh lemonade. We have the plug ins of that scent in our bathrooms and I have the oil we burn. It smells so good :)
