Well darn, if it didn't happen again.......

I was at the mall.

Went to pick up a few things for our Fourth of July picnic.

Was in the middle of housewares and it came over me.

Again.

Painfully Shy.....

OAt luncheon today, something came over me, so I excused myself to go powder my nose.

A Brief History of False Eyelashes

Legend has it that in 1916 film director D. W. Griffith wanted supporting actress of Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages, Seena Owens, to have such fluttering eyes that her lashes literally appeared to brush her cheeks. Strips of felt were glued to her eyelids to achieve this effect.

It was 1930 before false eyelashes were available commercially when Maybelline introduced them as part of a mascara package. The cost? 10 cents.

In the 60s Twiggy became that era's patron saint of the fluttering eye.

And now, thanks to 21st century NASA technological advances, we have made great strides in the creation of fluttering eyes and helping achieve truly natural beauty.

I'm often asked the question.....so much that I have to remark upon it

Pearl, they say,' we see the bling, but why are you dripping with perspiration?'

The answer is simple if you've studied organic chemistry.

Deodorant is made from hydrated potassium sulfate, KAI(SO4)2 + 12H20, or alum, to those of you who haven't.

So, alum is used for deodorant. Also as a flame retardant.

Now, Honey, why would I want to put out this fire?

Mother's Day 2013

Spent a delightful day with Mother at the beach. Would have posted sooner but it took awhile to get the sand out of my britches.
She's looking well, don't you think?  And good news! She's preggers!

It's not fashion, it's regalia......!

Artists, actors, performers--what are *your* regalia?
