OH! I’m watching one of Rick Steve’s travel programs for Paris on PBS as I type this (he was just at the Musee Rodin) and would so LOVE to be sipping my hot coffee at a Parisian cafe…
That would be nice. 🙂
Rise and shine, morning glory! It’s going to be a beautiful day. I hope you have something nice lined up, or at least don’t have a ton of chores to do today. I should do a little cleaning and finish decorating the tree…but I really don’t want to. I’d rather futz around and play.
Have a wonderful weekend, OK? If I keep watching this program, I’m never gonna get anything productive done, so I’d better hop to it. The treadmill is calling my name… “Karen!? Aren’t you going to run on me?? You’re supposed to run on me today!!”
Haha! I made myself laugh.

I do have paintings on my wall. I go every fall and spring to a local yet famous art school and they have their artists in residence do an auction for 3 Fridays every Fall and Spring. It used to be a lot cheaper to buy before they started putting the auctions online where anyone in the world could buy. No mtter, I bought in the earlier years (about 10 years ago) some gorgeous works for less than 200 bucks.
Megan says
Hope I win! I love Sephora!
Linda says
Not even a language that I speak, but right after I read the second question, I immediately thought, “bella”. What is up with my brain? I’ve learned a little bit of a few languages in the last decade (French, German, Korean), so it’s funny which translation my mind zooms to.
I remembering reading that Musee Rodin cafe tip in Rick Steve’s Paris guidebook, but unfortunately decided to skip it. Oh well, maybe the next time I’m in Paris…
sylvia says
i love laura mercier blushes!
Tiffany says
I ordered the Naked3 palette…hopefully it doesn’t make my eyes look swollen!
CKG says
Oh, I should use mine too. Darn lol
Tweakweasel says
I’m discovering that I can almost never do a nude lip without some sort of twist on it. For instance, today I decided to top a very pale liner with the gunmetal shade from the Rimmel Kate Moss collection and a random black sparkly lipgloss I picked up for…$2? Yes, very understated indeed. 😛

I’m so tempted to get all the Benefit blushes! They look so pretty!

Hi! New to your blog, newish to makeup, and a first time commenter!! I’m really enjoying all of the above so far. Sooo…Spanish was spoken in my home (but I’m really bad at it!) and has a lot of words for beautiful/pretty: hermosa, guapa, linda, bonita… etc etc!
Jennie H says
Love all the tips I’ve learned from you over the years and love the Call Me Maybe lipstick!
Deanna M says
My favorite blush to use depends on the season. In Winter, I typically grab a rosy shade like Tarte’s Amazonian clay blush in “Adventurous.” In the spring and summer, though, I always go for peach or coral, and my all-time favorite is NARS blush in “Orgasm.” =)
jessica davis says

In my language we say beautiful so “bonita”! And the funny thing is that we say “so what, beauty?” as a greeting, and the answer is always “gem”! ^_^ i’ts like that here in Brazil!

Julia Mumme says
beautiful in German means ” wunderschön” , English is so much better. 😀
kwmechelle says
Favorite blush? Well, let’s see. Up until yesterday, it was Cinnamon by NYX. It is gaw-geous up against my brown skin. It’s kinda a dupe for Tangerine by MUFE. BUT, then yesterday happened.
I was just stopping by the MAC counter for a brush to purchase & add to my collection. Then, I did it. I stopped to “play” in the blushes. Most notably, MAC Raisin. So many YT makeup gurus swear by it’s effect on brown skinned beauties. One swap and I was SOLD. Which is what I said to the sales rep. It made an immediate difference on my everyday makeup look. And that’s what I love about it. It’s a blush that I can wear everyday with any color lipstick or outfit. And for reference, I was rocking MAC Lickable (stunning cream sheen fusia) and the blush complimented it so well. And for that reason, MAC Raisin is my FAVE blush ☺️
Monica L. says
I love TheBalm’s blushes but these days I’ve been getting into the Nars ones.
Nathalie says
My all time favorite bronzer is Hoola by Benefit Cosmetics. It’s the perfect shade for contouring and the packaging is fabulous.
Stevie Pruitt says
My first language was gibberish. Beautiful is “bootyfull” in gibberish.
Mahdi Martin says
My favorite blush is Tarte’s Amazonian Clay 12-hour blush. I use it nearly every day even though I have some other good ones. It usually wins out.
Marija Nagulic says
Beautiful-is prelepa! 🙂
Mich says
I wouldn’t really call it a talent but, I can pick up almost anything with my toes,lol.

Siobhan says
I don’t know what the most beautiful bottle of perfume I’ve ever seen is, but I am definitely a sucker for their packaging. Even if I loved the scent, if the bottle was awful I don’t think I could have it out on my perfume display. And there may be a couple I own simply because they are so beautiful!
Mary-Gaëlle says
In french we say beau (male subject) or belle (female subject), also I went to the quebec museum of contemporary art about two months ago.

Jeane says
When you asked about a museum, it reminded me of a trip I took to Sarasota Florida. I was just walking around in between meetings, it was the first time I had been there. And there was a beautiful old mansion that was being restored, in walking distance of my hotel and you could tour through it, and there was a museum on the grounds also. It turned out to be the home the first Great Gatsby movie was filmed in and the museum had items from Ringling Bros. and Barnum Bailey Circus and owners. I had no idea at the time, as they were restoring it. I found all of this out after I got back home and looked it up. It was a gorgeous museum where you could sit on benches and not just the artwork, but also the marble and woodworking of the building. I may not have all of it exactly right, it was years ago so anyone who lives there, please correct me. There was also a beautiful Christmas display. So it is very much worth the tour. If you are near there, it was worth a visit. I love to walk around towns I visit and find out of the way things. Hope to tour it again some day.

Natasha P. says
Last time I went to a museum was this past summer. I went to a museum called Winterthur in Delaware – it’s the former home of Henry Francis DuPont, and though there are amazing things to see inside, the grounds are free to walk on and are absolutely gorgeous. It’s my absolute favorite. In the spring it’s filled with cherry blossom trees and greenery everywhere. I went several times this spring/summer actually. It’s such a beautiful, quiet serene setting.

Sarah Kipling says

Leela says
2 weeks ago… I love museums! I went to MCA (Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago). It’s a fantastic museum – people reading this y’all ought to go!
Sydney Arens says
I almost always prefer cream blushes to powders because i think they look more natural and sit on the skin better. That being said my favorite blushes at the moment are Stila’s Convertible Colors, I love lillium and peony. However, I am in love with my new NARS One Night Stand Cheek Palette so I have been cheating on my cream blushes lately.
Lulubelle says

My favorite thing in the world is my chihuahua Uno who is sleeping on my lap as I read your blog 🙂
Amy says
My native language is English, but I’ve currently learning Turkish, which is ‘güzel’. Both it and the German ‘schön’ contain front round vowels, which are relatively rare in the languages of the world, making the words even cooler. Language is fun!

How do you say “beautiful” in your first language? – BEAUTIFUL!
Most beautiful bottle of perfume you’ve ever seen? – Apart from the vintage glass from various vanities in timeless classic films, I’d have to say the Jean-Paul Gaultier perfume bottles shaped like a woman’s torso. So breathtaking!
Who makes your favorite blush/bronzer? – Tarte blushes (all), Too Faced bronzer, Buxom powder blush, Nyx stick blush!
Do you have any strange and unusual talents? – I can adjust and test ski bindings, and many other ski and snowboard-related skills! I guess that’s not that weird, but still, not tons of women are ski technicians 😛 Also, I’m really good at accents. Some people say they are, but I actually am (and therein lies the paradox, lol!)

I used to be a Set Decorator in Hollywood and my first show that I decorated was “Roseanne”, so I love decorating and beautiful things, including what we use to beautify ourselves! Unfortunately, I became ill and am unable to work any longer. This makes me extremely unhappy as I loved my job! I am now in a wheelchair, but still love beautiful things! And that includes beauty outside AND inside! 😀
Debbie says
The last museum that I visited was the British Museum in London. It was amazing!

Sorry, I see you asked, “When was the last time you went to a museum?” So, the British Museum would be about a year ago. …But I just remembered that we went to an art museum this summer, so that would be about 4 months ago. I love going to museums.
Isabel V says
I’m not sure it counts much as a talent, but I’m an ear wiggler! It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure that out, honestly. It definitely comes in handy when I’m too lazy to readjust my glasses; I just let my ear wiggles slide those puppies back up my face a little!

What’s your favorite part about the holidays? There’s a neighborhood across from mine that displays lights on their houses every year. It’s always attracted a bunch of visitors. My brother and I walked from our place last year to see them, which is a far better experience than viewing it from inside your car. The effort these people make to put this together always puts a smile on my face.
Jon says

I have this painting on my wall from my acrylic painting classes several years ago. 🙂 I’m quite proud of it even though it’s not an original. I copied it from a photo of a green bottle laying on its side in the sand on the beach. I’m particularly proud of how I painstakingly painted the sand. It actually looks real!

The last time I went to a museum was in October to see an exhibit at the MFA called She Who Tells a Story: Women Photographers from Iran and the Arab World. The exhibit was quite beautiful, moving and thought provoking.

I’m really liking Bella Bamba blush. The last time I went to the museum was when I visited the Smithsonian and went to the natural history museum because the aeronautical one was closed. It was a lot of fun!

Fave blush is the Hourglass Ambient Light powder in Mood Light. Just a hint of pink on my fair skin give a hint of colour. When I want a little more colour punch, I add a bit of pink from an Urban Decay palate I got as a gift, which also includes a matte bronzer and a highlighter. Great palate!
