Pink Pam


Had the pleasure of meeting Pam at Ladyfest's Tarts n’ Crafts in Ottawa this winter.  Her prints fascinate me. The bold lines and bright colors send my eyes on a roller coaster ride of adventure.  Though my favorite at this time is the black and white print on the left titled Bleed-Hair . This print is on the wall behind my computer screens. It reminds me that we all have an alternate side. A side of us that can only been seen if looked at correctly.

So can you see me?

Lip Smaking Good.

As I was cleaning out my purse I noticed my stash of lip balms have growen. Purse had 15, yes that is right 15. Coat has 3, randomly through out the house is about 30. Needless to say I like lip balm. The need for smooth soft kissable lips is a constant need, due to the fact they are some damn big. Cracked big lips hurt, nuf said.

All Natural balms are the way to go but they do need to meet some criteria before they can be placed on  the putty lushes.
  1. Has to be in a tub. Fingering on lip balm is a no go for this girl.
  2. Slides on smooth. Stiff upper lip is a no no.
  3. Great taste. If it tastes bad it goes in the trash.
At this time fav lip goo is Wildberry by Purple Urchin. Not only does it meet all the criteria it is locally made in Ottawa.

Now if you will excuse me I must go lube up.
