I have not done one of these in a very long time! Life’s been pretty crazy recently, but I wanted to pop in a share a few things with y’all today.
This Facebook video. It’s the perfect combination of my childhood, PBS theme songs and a Southern Baptist choir. Do yourself a favor and watch it until the end. I don’t know why this tickled me so much!
We’re having an Oreo taste testing at work today! I know that I’ve mentioned my awesome co-workers on here before, but I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned our Friday rituals. We typically take a leisurely lunch (sometimes with our manager) and finish off the Friday with a 3PM mix. It’s a different theme each week and so far, no one has disappointed me. We’ve done oldies, boy bands, 90’s, songs from movies, etc and a great time is usually had by all. We all get to sing and dance and get ready for the weekend. We recently got some new televisions (I’m not sure if I would even call them that because they’re so much more than TVs) for the two meeting rooms we have in our suite and can write on them! We ended up playing Pictionary that Friday and let’s just say that my artistic skills are still pretty crappy. I know we’ll find a way to incorporate the screens into our taste testing today, maybe as a way of taking tallys? We’ll see!
I get to see Tori Kelly this weekend! I’ve never seen her live, but I’ve been a fan of hers for some years now. She’s playing in Houston on Sunday afternoon and I’m going to the show with one of my girls. I cannot wait! I’m sure I’ll snapchat and live tweet from the show so make sure you’re following me!
I have two new favorite makeup products and they’re from drugstores! My relationship with concealer is an on again/off again one. I’ve bought a few in the past and usually gave up on them a few weeks in because of the application process or because they felt heavy. Well that’s not the case with the one I got from a cousin last weekend. It’s the HD concealer by Nicka K and this stuff is amazing! It’s full coverage and super light! I’ve developed light bags under my eyes and this concealer hides them so well. One of my co-workers noticed an immediate difference when I walked in the office on Monday. I’m also a huge fan of NYC’s CityProof 24hr Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil. I got it in a beauty box last year and was concerned because it initially looked like it couldn’t be sharpened…well it can and I’ve done it quite a few times since December. This liner is true to it’s name, it lasts all day and doesn’t smudge much. You guys should definitely check out these two products.
I’m jet-setting to Vancouver next week. I have another quick getaway planned for next weekend with a friend of mine and a friend of hers. We’ve booked crazy low priced flights, as well as an AirBNB in the heart of downtown Vancouver and we plan to tear the city up! Be sure to follow our shenanigans on my social media accounts!
