skin secrets!
actually not so secret as i grabbed it off of pinterest.
so if you follow me you already pinned it and perhaps you tried it.
but if not...that's ok.
because i have been doing it once a week for 2 weeks (ok, twice) and i think my skin's texture and tone have improved.
so as your guinnea pig for life..
i highly recommend this treatment..
take 3 tablespoons of baking soda and mix it with 1-ish tablespoons of water (you want paste).
spread it on your fiznace and massage for a minute.
splash your fiznace with water and massage more.
at this time you will feel like microdermabrasion-esque "beads" are sloughing away all the wine and chocolate you consumed last night.
i think you can safely do this 3 times a week.
depending on your skin.
mine is oily and sensitive.

my butt.
i work out all the time.
but before you get all FUCK YOU! on me...
know that my workouts rarely include cardio and/or anything too strenuous.
i do tracy anderson 2x's a week and the rest of the time i do yoga (the yoga i do is basically like sleeping) and pilates.
and some days i watch real housewives instead.
so when a reader and i were discussing things she mentioned that she was a personal trainer and used to have a flat butt but now it's a bubble donkey.
many of you know my quest for a bubble donkey runs deep.
my butt is small.
so small you can barely see it.
i need to donkify it.
i don't want a phaedra donkey.
i want this donkey:
so she said she would send me her secret to a donkey so long as i posted about it.
so i said, deal!
this is apparently how i will acheive the donkey.
i am going to start this program in june and all of you lucky bastards will get to watch as my pancake becomes a bundt cake.

fiona's room.
it is pretty much done.
except her bench/stool still needs reupholstering, but the hot pink faux ostrich (so good)
is here and i will get her done once i return from new york.
i am waiting on her (cream linen with lavender ball fringe) curtains but her existing roman shades are good enough for now.
and i'm STILL on the hunt for a duvet that works with her headboard fabric.
there aren't many out there that i can afford.
i have sent 2 back bc they clashed horrendously.
so anyway it is almost there!!
i thought i would AT LEAST give you a crappy dark photo of her glossy olive green ginormous desk!
it's all so much better in good light and non-suckass photography.
when i return next week i aim to deliver the goods regarding this room.
and now...
