5 things I’ve Been Loving Lately

1. Alanis Morissette’s Jagged bit Pill

I checked out a extremely fascinating story the other day in this week’s home entertainment regular about Alanis Morissette’s Jagged bit Pill. The album turns 20 years old this year (GULP!). আপনি কি বিশ্বাস করতে পারেন …? It seems like I was just listening to it yesterday in my college dorm while doing o-chem as well as considering the implying of life… LOL!

So the short article had some interviews with people who were included in making the album, like Alanis, of course, who was 20 at the time, as well as her composing partner Glen Ballard. They had a extremely organic composing style, apparently. at times they’d compose an entire tune a day, as well as they completed with the whole album in weeks.

I hadn’t listened to the album in years, so I put it on the other day, as well as ya understand what? It holds up truly well! My preferred tune utilized to be One Hand in My Pocket, as well as it still is…

I’ve been singing it to infant woman a great deal this week.

At the danger of sounding completely as well as totally gross, I haven’t washed my hair because Sunday night.

It’s Thursday afternoon now, sooo… Yeah. I’m trying to see if I can make it to Saturday. Which will be five days.

Why am I so thrilled about this?

Well, Living proof ideal Hair Day dry Shampoo. stuff is quite great.

My long hair is a pain in the booty to style, so I’ll typically laundry it on something like a Sunday night, then curl it the complying with morning. then I’ll try to see exactly how long I can go before washing it again, since I just dewnt like to offer with the drama.

Dry shampoo truly help. With a great one such as this one from Living Proof, my roots don’t get as well oily or stinky throughout the week.

The one I’d been utilizing is from Klorane, as well as I still believe it’s extremely good, however I believe ideal hair is even better. Like, “change your life” better!

So, about dry shampoos, after I’ve utilized one for a few days in a row, the powder, which is what they’re made of, starts to develop up at the roots, as well as I can feel it stacking up as well as sitting there… typically after three days or so, I’ll get to the point where I just can’t stand it anymore.

Living proof is expected to have some newfangled dry shampoo technology, as well as the method I comprehend it, you’re expected to brush the fine powder spray with your hair, as well as when you do this, it kind of whisks away the oil, dirt as well as funk, to “clean” (air quotes) your hair. There’s likewise a fresh, light time-release fragrance that I like.

I purchased it on a whim at Sephora a few weeks back as well as have been utilizing it a great deal since. It works great! directly up, this is the cleanest as well as freshest my hair has ever felt while utilizing a dry shampoo, so homegirl is already making plans, yo! When the next VIB sale hits, I’m gonna stockpile.

3. This month’s cooking Light magazine

I’ve discussed this a few times, however after infant woman set up shop in my tum, I wasn’t truly feeling the cooking bug (feeling a bug??). Anyway, it was the first-trimester food aversion thing, however I’m just about totally over it now, so I’ve started cooking again, yay!

I mean, El Hub — that man? He did his finest to keep us fed while I didn’t want to cook, however as much as I like him, one can only eat so numerous grilled cheese sandwiches…

Now that I’m starting to cook again, I’m believing that it’s one of those perishable skills that you begin to lose if you don’t use. My good friend provided me this month’s cooking Light magazine, as well as it’s been extremely helpful, ’cause seriously, it’s like I completely failed to remember exactly how to cook anything that isn’t toast or pasta.

My OB/GYN has me eating a much more different diet plan than I typically do with the prime goal of “growing that baby!” so she has me eating meat once again (I’m typically a pescatarian, however fish still tastes a bit funny to me), as well as the mag has a lot of simple beef as well as poultry recipes, like a 20-minute fast Shepherd’s Pie (no, it’s not just for fast shepherds, haha) I made a few nights ago.

It was tasty, albeit under-seasoned, as well as that’s one thing I’ve noticed about cooking Light. They tend to go simple on the salt as well as spices.

4. RMS charm nail Polish

Vegan makeup line RMS charm just came out with a new nail polish line ($15 each as well as offered in 10 shades), as well as the ones I’ve tried are great! They’re vegan, cruelty-free as well as 5-free (no parabens, DPB, toluene, camphor, xylene or formaldehyde).

I’ve been using two coats of creamy orange curious with pearly gold Solar as an accent nail, together with a base coat (no top coat since I forgot, whoops!), as wellচার দিন পরে, প্রান্তে অবিশ্বাস্যভাবে ছোট চিপস মাত্র কয়েকটি আছে, যা আমার জন্য বেশ মহান। আমি বিশ্বাস করি পরবর্তী গাঢ় ছায়া একটি চেষ্টা করার চেষ্টা করুন।

5. সাবান ও মহিমা মসৃণ তারকা গভীর আর্দ্রতা শরীরের দুধ ($ 12)

এই স্টাফটি একটি ভ্যানিলা শেকের মতো গন্ধ, এটি হেললা ময়শ্চারাইজিং, সেইসাথে একটি উল্লেখযোগ্য 16.2-আউন্স বোতল মাত্র $ 12।

একমাত্র ত্রুটি হল যে আমি এর সাথে ময়শ্চারাইজিং করার পরে, আমি একটি ভ্যানিলা শেক চাই। হাঃ হাঃ হাঃ!

5 things I’ve Been Loving Lately

See the bun peeking out from the top?
1. Embracing the straw visor

OK, I know, I know. A week ago I was solidly against the oversized packable straw visor, mostly because it reminded me of my glamorous grandma and all of her homies back in the day, but then I watched this favorites video by Dr. Dray (she’s a dermatologist, and she is all about sun protection). She mentions how much she loves her packable straw visor because she can put her hair up in a bun on the top of her head while she wears it! YOU DON’T even know how MIND BLOWING THIS WAS TO ME.

Since my hair is past my shoulders, it’s always a struggle to figure out where to put my bun or ponytail when I’ve got a hat on. I end up wearing buns/ponytails low on the back of my head, but I don’t really love that because then my hair sits against the back of my neck, and I get really hot. Anyway, I ended up going back to Nordstrom rack and grabbing the visor for $15, and I love IT. I wore it today to go hiking, and my hair was off my neck, and it felt really good.

Yes, I have to tilt my head back to see sometimes, ha!
2. finding Rosie in the weirdest places

She’s been getting creative lately with her napping spots. Here’s her new favorite hiding place: Connor’s old play mat, where she keeps some of her stuffed animals (Connor, not Rosie).

I see you, Rosie Pose!
3. The radio station Q-102.1

I try not to get too attached to any radio station here in the SF Bay area because the ones I love just seem to always disappear mysteriously! Seriously, one day you get in your car, turn up your favorite ’90s hip-hop throwback station expecting to hear Lil’ Kim, but then you hear the screech of guitars from a speed metal band instead.

Anyway, I was flipping through the channels in my car the other day, and this station is one of a handful I can actually tolerate. In the span of 10 minutes, I heard Wham’s Careless Whisper, Mariah’s emotions and 2Pac’s California Love. GLORIOUS!

4. TJ’s traditional French Brie with sliced Opal apples

THIS COMBO, OMG! After you try it, you’ll love me and hate me at the same time. eating apples with brie is really nothing new, but the TJ’s traditional French Brie will take your breath away. It’s what I like to call “a funkier brie,” so it’s got that pungent, smelly toes aspect to it (which I love), and it’s just so, so soft and creamy. When you eat it with sliced yellow Opal apples, goodness gracious, it’s a heavenly experience.

YUM
5. keeping a small army of sunscreens on hand

I’m earnestly trying very hard to be diligently wearing sunscreen (that’s a lot of adverbs!). I’ve read that it helps to keep a variety of formulas and types on hand, and that’s what I’ve been doing lately.

I think it’s working for me! Previously, I would only keep one or two bottles around the house, but now that I have a bunch of them on hand, it’s been easier to remember to wear sunscreen, especially when I have different options available (spray, lotion, even stick sunscreen) to suit how lazy I’m feeling at any particular moment. Also, now I know I’ll always have some on hand! I used to always wait until I finished a bottle before getting a new one, but now I just always have sunscreen around. It’s kinda cool!
