What I'm Reading This Week #30
Happy Final Friday of July everyone! I will not be sad to see this month in the rear view. The Mr finished the HOA minion's job by checking on the basement wall crevasse of missing mortar pretty much every waking hour after he "filled" the hole. I gave him a bamboo skewer to see if it hit the long bottom we saw with the camera. Nope. source When he poked it, it drained away. Every hour, he'd do the same and it kept emptying. I had him check to make sure it wasn't pouring out the front of the house and thankfully it wasn't. But if you figure that water has been etching away at the stairstep crack leading from the top of the hole then that goes down the entire length of the wall , so it had a long way to travel. In the end not only did the Mr use one quart of the filler but had to buy another one and used 1/3 of the bottle before it finally started leveling off!! If we'd left it to the HOA dude, an eighth of the bottle woul...
I'm having visions of my entire face being refreshed...except around the mouth area where my tongue liked it all off.
ReplyDeleteIn all seriousness, I'm always on the lookout for at-home/DIY beauty, so thanks for this. The next time I use pumpkin, I'll try to refrain from eating the rest out of the can with the spoon and do this instead.
I never would have thought of this. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, it left my face feeling totally hydrated, soft and FIRM! Not something my regular stuff leaves me with (firm wise).
ReplyDeleteYou can also crush up some almonds (or use almond meal) or pulse some rolled oats to mix it in and use it as an exfoliator! Yummy!...err...I mean yahoo!
Wow what an awesome idea! It would be hard to not want to eat that mix though. :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I just found your blog via your comment on Beth's site. It's great, I've bookmarked and will be back often!!! Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteBeth- Definitely! I just got my lunch and saw that and thought "ooh, that looks good!"
ReplyDeleteRoz- Nice to see you! Welcome!
Ahh! You put it on your face? Lol! Freaky!
ReplyDeleteI know! But don't knock it til ya try it! I think I'm going to use it before I go out with others because it made my face feel so firm and lifted. Who knew!? :)
ReplyDeleteWho knew??? How do you come up with all this stuff?? That is really cool. Will have to remember this when I have some left over pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could take credit for it but I either saw it on TV or read it in a magazine about a year ago. I wanted to remember it for when I had a wee bit o' pumpkin left and finally had enough to use it!
ReplyDeleteYou make me smile and my family will thank you that they no longer have to eat pie with my face imprint in it! Whooo...just in the nick of time!
