I'm boring me...

I was just scanning through my 2005 posts looking for a particular link, and I realised that my blog used to be a lot more interesting than it is now. Food, food, food, FOOD!!! I'm pretty sure there's more to life than food, and I don't know how or why I let my blog evolove into a mostly-food-related blog? Not that there's anything wrong with that. I love food. Food is very important to me, and many of the blogs I frequent are the blogs of foodies! But I don't do it as well as them, so I'm going to switch it up a little.

So, let's get a little GIRLY and talk about make-up! I don't see myself as much of a girly-girl, never have. But since being on my own over the last several months, I've found that indulging my girlish tendancies can be some of the best kind of therapy! I borrowed a copy of Carmindy's 5 Minute Face from my beautiful friend Heather, and picked up a couple of products she recommends in the book. Two products have completely changed the way my face looks to me - blush and highlighter. I look awake and alive...freaky! If you're dumb about make-up like me, check out Carmindy's site for tips.

Oh, and I've realised that big hoopy earings are pretty awesome too...thanks to another beautiful friend, Kim, for inspiring me to be more fashionable! I bought some big butterfly earrings and a multicoloured bangle in NYC. I've also got enough dresses in my closet for a full work-week, and I bought a scarf (still afraid to wear it though)?! Geez, what's next? I think I might need to organize a slumber party, complete with a teary viewing of The Notebook, baby-dolls, and cotton-candy-pink pedicures to take the next step in my girly-volution! I'm game!
