Shoot.
I just realized that I missed out on a free bear claw…
The last time I went to Panera Bread they said I’d earned one through their membership thingy program, but I had to use it by the ninth. I didn’t want it then because I was there for lunch, and it was noon. Now I’m too late…
See, there’s an important life lesson there. Never look a gift bear claw in the mouth. No matter what time it is, no matter if you want it or not, don’t wait. You take that bear claw, and you eat that bear claw, you hear me? 🙂
LOL!
In other news, happy caturday! Rise and shine, pal o’ mine. I hope you got a good night’s sleep. I slept pretty well, considering the scary movie I watched last night. (A sci-fi horror thriller called The Machine on Netflix. Brace yourself for the opening scene. That’s all I’m saying.)
Purr usual, I haven’t figured out what I’m doing yet today… I know that we definitely need some groceries (we’re down to carrots, soy milk and instant decaf coffee, blech!), so probably Trader Joe’s right away. After that, we’ll see.
Good luck in the giveaway, babe, and have a wonderful day. Talk to you soon.

Agata says
Happy Saturday, Karen! Any special plans?
Karen says
Hi Agata! Have a great day out there. We’re on our way out the door to grab breakfast from a greasy spoon in town, and then Trader Joe’s.
I’m really not in the mood to do grocery shopping today, but it has to get done. Other than that, nothing really. A little cleaning, laundry, maybe some reading on the couch, stuff like that.
I hope you’re doing something more fun than it sounds like I’m doing today, LOL!
Agata Piestra says
You’re always so sweet for answering to my comments on Saturdays, it makes my day. Not a whole lot of fun stuff planned here. One more hour of work, then maybe running and probably working on my blog a little bit. Grocery shopping is a Sunday (dreaded) activity for me and hubby.
Ankita@corallista says
I am an Indian currently living in Japan so I’ve tried plenty of Asian brands 🙂 My favorites are Lakme, Colorbar (Indian) and Shiseido (Japan). I also like Kanebo products!
Naomi Ng Ru Mi says
I’ve said it, and I’ll say it again. You look like Michelle Yeoh! haha
Kiss & Make-up says
Favorite Asian beauty brand? Easy! Shiseido!
Krista says
My kitty has the cutest meow ever. He turned one in July, but he still has a kitten meow and is still a very small cat. I love him, except when he steals my brushes and tries to eat them.
SeriouslyDaph says
Our cat’s have the cutest meow. And if you meow to them they’ll talk back.
steve weber says
raw cookie dough- always a yay.. especially in ice cream.
Alleycat says
Let’s see…I don’t have a “favorite” Asian brand, but I do like Fairydrops (for its Platinum mascaras) and Etude House (for its BB creams). I feel so-so about my brows. On the one hand, their natural shape fits my face well, but on the other, it’s so darn hard to make sure they match. Most of the time, they’re not sisters or even cousins, just two people on the opposite end in the six degrees of Kevin Bacon.
Jessica says
I love TonyMoly. Their products are adorable! Also, your blog is fantastic! So witty and funny and informative all at the same time 🙂
Candace Jordan says
What a generous giveaway!
Funny you should ask about brow satisfaction. I’m glad I’ve been letting them grow in, because today, the wax got a little close to the hairs I wanted to keep! Glad my hair grows like weeds!
yemaya says
I like various products-Bobbie Brown eyebrow kit & Beach fragrance, Sephoras eye pencils, Philosphy’s Purity etc… Etc….
Alix says
Yay for raw cookie dough!
Gretchen says
My cat has a very abrasive meow… it sounds like a mix between mooing and meowing. My husband is not a fan of it in the middle of the night!
Alessandro says
As a gay men who doesn’t wear makeup, I’d say my favourite Asian brand is Shiseido, I’ve been using their facial scrub regularly since last year and it’s great for my greasy skin.
I person I used to date actually did a portrait of me once. Gosh it was ugly. He was going through a sort of artistic phase, but he had very little talent. I didn’t want to offend him though, so I told him it was beautiful. Plus I think at that point I had already planned to break up with him soon, so I preferred to lie.
Lynda tran says
I hate my brows they are like far distance cousins!
Anne G. says
Hmm favorite asian make-up brand… Depending on wether you count a cushion bb cream as makeup, i would say dr. Jart
Yurianna says
Ick to raw cookie dough
TrippyPixie says
A friend in grade school once drew a sketch of me, but in a semi-caricature style. She was really talented at art, so it turned out pretty nice. I still have it.
Susie says
Have to say nay to raw cookie dough, the more I think about it the worse I feel about eating it! Cookies however…..
Laura says
I don’t have a favorite Asian makeup brand, but my favorite Asian skincare brand is Hada Labo.
Jennifer Pham says
Hi Karen,
Just noticed that the facebook entering option is not there!
On another note, I saw the movie The Giver recently, and thought it was a very intriguing story. I haven’t read the book yet – but that will happen soon!
Ingrid says
My husband is an artist, and he paints pictures of me (or, rather, I’m in them — they’re not portraits) all the time. He says I should list my occupation as “muse” on our taxes.
Krista says
I’ve had the UD Naked palette for over 2 years, but I’m going to wear Creep and Gunmetal for the first time tonight to complement a midnight blue dress I’m wearing to a wedding. My first departure from neutrals or purples, so wish me luck!
Camille says
Karen!
happy caturday. hope grocery shopping flies by. i hate doing it too, but like you mentioned: it must be done.
i’m pretty keen on shiseido, but i’ve heard great things about tatcha. i might make the splurge one day. soon, hopefully. 🙂
Steff says
My cat hardly ever meows but when he does–it is super adorable.
Love your blog!
Colleen Boudreau says
My cat has the cutest little meow.. sometimes he doesn’t even open his mouth when he does it.
KaitieTee says
I’ve been working on my brows this week. I finally splurged on the Anastasia brow wiz and then I also picked up the Milani Brow Shaper gel. They’re a good pair!
Krista says
I’m not happy with the state of my brows at the moment, and I can’t find my good tweezers so I’m kinda stuck. Uggh.

Jessie C. says

Steffinie says

Liz says
I think LaNeige makes some really nice color cosmetics, despite being mostly a skin care brand.

Raw cookie dough: yea or nay?
YEA, DUH!
Does your cat have a cute meow?
Yes! My favorite is when he brings me a milk tab (his favorite toy) to throw across the room and he makes this “cakackackack” meow that is hysterical.
Are you currently happy with the state of your brows?
– I am. Fortunately I inherited some rockin’ brows from my momma. Thanks mam!

-Nopes

Sarah Hall says
I had a characture done of me once. It was kind of funny.
cdawn04 says
Our cat Mookie stalks me..I have found myself shifting as far away as possible from anything she just might launch herself from in an attempt to sit on my shoulders.sometimes I look like a complete weirdo when she is really persistent, shuffling side to side as she changes furniture.even the middle of the room isnt safe.I have to armor up with a sweater cause she just wont get the hint.
Rebecca says
What would you do as a makeup addict whose job of 8 years suddenly says that makeup, nail polish & perfume is no longer allowed?

I miss my neighbour’s cat. They moved early this week, he’s white, long hair he used to come at my door and “scam” some cat’s treats with a very whiny meow 🙁
stacey rosenthal says
Seconding Tonymoly. I just ordered one of their limited edition lip balms from sephora in the cute metallic lip shape. Loveee!!!

Yay for raw cookie dough! Except when i was a teenager i ate too much of it and got sick to my stomach. Lol
INCI says
Favorite Asian makeup brand? Shiseido, maybe. 🙂
Drew says
I have been sketched twice that I can remember. Once was a full body (clothed) sketch for a drawing class. The other one was by my sister. She’s not exactly artistically inclined, so she drew a majestic moustache on me to make up for it (I’m a girl).
Sofia says
Yes, myself! As a former art student I have made a couple of self portraits to this date, although sketching other people on the street is one of my favorite things to do
Marie H says

Shu Uemura! Their false eyelashes are truly to die for!
Has anyone ever sketched or painted a picture of you?
Nope 🙁 I need to make myself more purrrtty for this
Raw cookie dough: yea or nay?
YAY! We only live once. I would wear my favorite lipstick and eat this delectable raw food. If for some reason I drop dead while consuming this delectable raw food, I know I’ll drop with a lipstick colored smile on my face. But then again I might just end up running to the bathroom, still with lipstick on lol!
Does your cat have a cute meow?
If you consider a chihuahua a cat, then no.
Are you currently happy with the state of your brows?
Eh! Currently growing these bald caterpillars out

Tosha H says
Definitely a fan of raw cookie dough, sometimes I even like it more than the cookies lol

I WISH I were happy with the state of my brows. They’re sparse and patchy. It takes so long to get them right some days, I almost need a nap after. :\
Monal says
I don’t like raw cookie dough but I could eat cookies every day. I love the state of my eyebrows right now. I go to a lady that does them and she always does a great job!

Berry says
Yes, to raw cookie dough. And now I’m craving it.
Lisa J says
While on our honeymoon we were approached by a man asking if he could draw a picture of the 2 of us. We wouldn’t have to give him any money if we didn’t like it so we let him go ahead. He was pretty persistent. Once finished I hated his drawing of me, I looked like an ugly man. I think we gave him a couple bucks and pitched the drawing when he was out of site. Ha!

Ellen says
Raw cookie dough – definite yea. Haven’t gotten Salmonella yet!
Sierra says
Currently, I am not happy with my brows. They are very bushy because I am always scared that I am going to pluck a hair that I shouldn’t. I’m also scared to get them done professionally because that takes too much trust that I don’t have, lol.
Kim Pincombe Cole says
Raw cookie dough does not survive in my house – everyone eats it before the cookies can even be made! And I had a caricature done of my husband and I at his work Christmas party years ago. It was horrendous!!!

Raw cookie dough ONLY if it’s made with egg substitute – and so pasteurized!

BLANCA says
Raw cookie dough: yea!!!!! 🙂

Denise M says
I love all your stories every week! You are soooo funny!!
Kristen says
My cat sounds like a baby when meows especially when he wants food.
Katrina says
I guess I’m okay with how my brows are lately. To be honest with you I don’t have a lot of time to fuss with them these days but that seems to work out better for me anyway because I leave them alone more and they seem to be fuller than normal. LOL
Lulubelle says
DHC is my favorite Asian brand – their Deep Cleansing Oil is a holy grail.

Christine says
If you’re ever in Japantown (San Francisco), check out The Face Shop location there. They have heavier coverage for Korean beauty brands but you get to try all of those neat Korean beauty trends you hear about.
Eva says
My cat had no teeth when I adopted her so she didn’t pronounced her mew-mews quite right. But still obscenely cute. I’d recognize her mews anywhere.

Karen do you have any kids besides Tab’s?
Rhoda K says
Raw cookie dough? YAY!!
Fran says
No, I’m not completely happy with the state of my brows… I plucked the ends, because they’re very droopy (read sad and old-looking), so I need to learn to extend them just a bit in the direction I want with pencil… I should probably visit my favorite MUA at my local ULTA, who does tons of eyebrows, but I think I want to use the Hourglass pencil, which I would get at Sephora… oh, well, Anastasia or Too Faced or Tarte probably would have a pencil I would like, too.
Liz says
Cookie dough? Ick!
Ivana Jankovic says
I’m absolutely happy with my brows 🙂
Amalia says
Shiseido!

Raw cookie dough: No for me
Clara says
Omg I LOVE cookie dough!!!
Donna N says
Karen, thanks for that important life lesson–I am ALWAYS forgetting about those special *perk* items that different retailers offer me, ESPECIALLY when there’s an expiration date! Panera Bread, B&N, Target and even JCP—-in fact, I have a $10 reward that I have to use by the end of October, so I best not forget it—-I also just earned my VIB Silver card at Sephora this past week and there are bonus perks that have to be used up soon, so if I won this GC, I could use those perks too—BONUS!!!
And my Brows—-they are in need of some SERI rehab—thanks for the reminder too! 🙂
Amanda says
Hi Karen! My brows are ok, they need a wax. But I like their shape; they’re a tiny bit thinner than I’d like; but not bad. Yes to cookie dough if I’m already making cookies. Not like to eat huge spoonful after spoonful.
Nataya says
Hi. I love raw cookie dough :). Talking about Asian cosmetic, Martha Tilaar and Mustika Ratu are big in Indonesia.
Geralyn says
Have a great Sunday!
Denise says
I’m really distressed by the state of my brows, to be completely honest. Overtaxing made them really thin-and gave me the tell-tale whiter patch of skin under each eyebrow-but now they’re growing again. Unfortunately, they were always short and thick. I fill in the ends, but I’m not sure if I should just bite the bullet and have them waxed or threaded or just deal with them, since I’ll be hitting 30 in a few months and know my hair will probably start growing back even more slowly.
cherry says
An absolute yay for cookie dough!!! In fact I am craving some now after writing this comment…
Laetitia says
If you had to throw alllll of you make up away and only be able to pick one what would u choose
Sammy N says
Fave Asian brand at the moment is Clio; I really dig their gelpresso liner pencils and kill black pen liner!
Rose says
I love my brows right now! I have full and unruly brows, and right now they are freshly threaded and look clean 🙂
Maria J. says
In have to admit I’m the happiest with my eyebrows I could ever be because I’ve been letting them grow for the past couple of months and shaping them at the same time, so now I don’t have to fill them in as much.
Nicole says
My brows are the thing I get the most compliments on (and the only thing I do on days when I can’t be bothered with makeup). I freaking love them.
I’d also love $50 to buy more of the new NARS Audacious lipsticks. I splurged for one, but that is a hefty price tag. Ugh.
V says

I am not happy with my brows! I don’t think they’ll ever grow the way I want, but it’s not bad enough that I have to fill them in on a daily basis, I just save that for special occasions.
Kayla says
Raw cookie dough… a definite yay! Ugh, the days when I was younger and could get away with eating whatever I wanted!
Sam E says
I’m not currently happy with my brows, although they are bushy, they aren’t very full and they look very different from each other…
Laura says
My cat Guppy DEFINITELY has the cutest meow. No question about it. Every time I go into the vet everyone there always comments on her meow and ask if its real. Bar none cutest meow ever!

I need some serious eyebrow bootcamp to get these brows ready for fall weather

I wasn’t aware the cookie dough thing was a choice? Always cookie dough- cook it, don’t cook it, it’s still the stuff of unicorn dreams.

I have never tried any Asian makeup but I definitely want to.
Michelle Fry says
I haven’t tried many Asian brands of makeup, but I do use Skin Miso for the blackheads on my nose, and it’s dead effective!!!
Candice Croix says
I prefer freshly baked cookies, actually. Especially if somebody else bakes them.
Ms. Elise says
I’m a raw cookie dough fiend. The last batch of cookies I made, actually, I almost didn’t bake them and just ate the dough because it was *perfect*.
RM says
half-baked cookies are the best. warm and chewy!
Marisa says
Raw cookie dough? Yes! Delicious!
Sylvia says
Yes to cookie dough raw, and of course my cat’s have cute meows!
Isabel V says
Raw cookie dough? HECK yea! As for me brows, they’re pretty full. They can be a bit unruly at times, but I pluck regularly. I usually just shape them when I put on moisturizer, but I’ll whip them into shape with an old clean mascara wand or a little brow gel if necessary.
Kristina Vieweg says
Hope you had a nice weekend Karen! I can never sleep if I watch horror movies…I can barely handle Dateline: Mystery LOL! Oh, and I LOVE raw cookie dough, but I always get nervous when I eat it. I have heard they make some that is safe to eat but I feel like thats too dangerous to have around haha!
dyan says
Mitzy has a cute and annoying meow. She talks a lot. She whines a lot. Then I look into her big eyes and melt.
Nicole says
Caught a cold this week… hope to be over it soon.
Mahreen says
I married my crush 9 years ago and it’s been an amazing 9 years so far. We bad a cat but he passed the kiss miss him a lot and no other cat will. Haven’t really tried any Asian makeup brands. Love the blog.
Talking Bowl says
In a world where someone else is paying, my favorite Asian makeup brand is Shiseido. In a world where I’m paying, it’s Daiso. 🙂 They may be a dollar store, but they have surprisingly decent mascara.
Mallory B says
I am currently very displeased with the state of my brows, but that’s because I have yet to find a good brow stylist in the town I moved to 3 years ago. Everyone I’ve gone to has done them far too thin. I’ve heard good things about the girls at the Ulta (half an hour away) so I think I’m going to give them a shot on my next day off.
alli says
ah, dang! i forgot to redeem my free pastry at panera too – i think i had to use mine by the 8th, it seems like they said. oh well; less calories, right? 🙂

I don’t like raw cookie dough, but I’ll eat a million perfectly cooked and chewy cookies.

Anitra says
Omg I had a bear claw (not a panera one) get stuck in the vending machine at work!! I want my $1.50 back *waving fist
Wendy says
My favorite asian makeup brand so far is Etude House…they’re so adorable…have you tried it??
Tracy says
I sat for a portrait when I was a senior in high school. It’s in charcoal, no color and it’s traveled with me to every place I’ve lived since moving out of my parents house 18 years ago. It’s my husbands favorite picture of me because he’s known me since we were 3 and remembers when I looked like that.
mv says
I want to grow out my brows and reshape them
Loulou says
Love some Dr. Jart+…the BB creams are perfection!
mrsshukra says
Trying new concealers this week!
Angela P. says
I am not currently happy with the shape of my brows.. I really need to go get them waxed. I have 2 small, fiesty children. So that solution is harder than it sounds. I’ll get there. Oh.. and Raw Cookie Dough is a must. I tell my kids they can’t have any and it’s no good for you bc of the raw egg in it.. even though I’ve been eating it for years.. better safe than sorry.. actually it’s just so I can have it to myself. Anyway your blog is a lot of fun! You have a great purrsonality.
christine says
I do not have brow skills so I pretty much just use brow gel and hope that they will magically grow in someday.
Zoe says
Raw cookie dough is a yay!!!
melody brown says
No to the raw cookie dough. But…thanks for the chance. My bday is tuesday and I badly want some argan oil.
Hanusia says
Raw cookie dough- YAY!!
Also, I went a little bit overboard with the brow air trimming, so they look a little patchy right now. But I know they’ll grow back in all their bushy glory within a few days- they always do. 😉
Brittany L says
Hey there!
– so I’m not a fan of raw cookie dough, but I like cookie dough ice cream (?) I know, weird
– I just recently got my eyebrows threaded for the very first time. I love it! I also got myself the Anastasia Brow Whiz and I LOVE IT! I can’t wait to try the Tinted/Clear Brow Gel.
I hope you’re doing well!
Bons says
I have never had anyone sketched a picture of me but would love to!
Nicole Nguyen says
Since you brought up the topic of brows as a suggestion, I recently got my brows threaded. Unfortunately, they are a tad on the thinner side. I usually keep my brows pretty big and this girl felt like it should be thing. I kept on thinking ‘WHY ME?!’ 🙁 However, it has given quite a bit of practice as to how to draw in my brows 🙂
Ruchee says
My favorite Asian makeup brand is Shiseido!
Amanda says
Yum to raw cookie dough and I loooove Asian makeup! Can make blush, real tattoo eyeliner, amore pacific moisture gel, the face shop face masks, etc. I could go on n on!
Tori says
I found your site last week whilst looking for NARS swatches and just have to say its AMAZING! Can’t believe I’ve only just found it and then this contest comes along too 😀 Yey!
Priscilla S. says
Raw cookie dough is a yay! I can’t resist.

i love cookie dough ice cream but not sure about it being on its own!
jessica says
I wish my brows were thicker.
Christy Peeples DuBois says
Good morning, I am not a raw cookie dough person for the most part and am not satisfied with the state of my brows either. My Persian cat died a few years ago and he was such a good cat and I miss him terribly. Hope you have a good day!!
Steph says
Always a yes to raw cookie dough. Especially oatmeal chocolate chip cookie dough.
Amanda Sakovitz says
ive never sketched a pic of myself
Doreena says
OK 4th time I’m posting/asking this~How do you get a profile pic on here? So it seems NO one reads these???
Kathy Hanley says
I need to buy a new blush. I’ve had the one I’m using for what seems forever and I’ve never liked the color.
Maria Renteria says
Hiya! One of my eyebrows is amazing and the other one not so much 🙂 I have been trying to grow them out but they don’t feel like matching so it takes me a bit in the morning to fill them 🙂
mita says
Yea to raw cookie dough!
Meegan says

I like raw cookie dough in theory, but I’m paranoid of it making me sick!
Casey says
I wish I had raw cookie dough for breakfast right now 🙁
Mel says
My male cat Marlon Brando has the wussiest meow ever, while my female Riley is assumed to be male with how loud she is!
Regina Reed says
My cat Lola has about the cutest meow ever! It’s very meek and girly, she is just the cutest chicest kitty there ever was!
Kim says
That’s a negative on brow satisfaction. I’m like Mick Jagger that way. Can’t get no. I feel like they were getting too heavy for my face but, only my left one can be shaped the way I like. Stupid Raul on the right makes it impossible, even with filling. I don’t know if anyone ever talks about this but many women I know say that their brows just don’t grow back in as they age. So, young gals should be extra cautious about over-plucking!
Caitlyn says
I been blessed with some pretty strong brows! I looked pretty funny as a child with these dark, fierce brows with blonde hair. THANKFULLY, I grew into them! They just need a lot of tweezing.
Efrain says
Biore is my favorite Asian brand.
Istvánné V. says
My daughter drew a few sketch of me a few years ago:)

My brows need help. I have actually needed them to grow in because they were too thin so I’ve been working on that with my wax chickie for the past year. But now I haven’t been in a few months should be good and full next time I make it in!!!
Ruth says
I am happier than I have ever been with my brows but still not happy. Go figure, I have big crazy dark hair and eyebrows with natural sparse spots, since I was a kid!
