I wish I could learn new things by osmosis (technically, diffusion) — you know, where you could just touch a how-to book to your forehead or sleep with it under your pillow and just magically memorize the whole thing.
That sure would be convenient, wouldn’t it? Waking up the next morning and having El Hub ask me, “How did you sleep?” and me saying, “Eu dormi fantástico!”
I got a couple of new books about drawing last week by a cartoonist I like named Ben Caldwell. His style is very modern Disney and the books are filled with drawing exercises, which I do follow, some of them, but only as many as I can with the time.
Just one of those things I wish I had more time for… That and figuring out inventive new ways to annoy Tabs. 🙂 You know how it is. Too many interests, too little time.
The holiday weekend activities continue today. I’m taking pics of my BFF’s son’s christening this afternoon, so I’m excited about that, but also a little nervous. I don’t want to step on any toes, literally. Or knock anything over. It’s in a church, so there will be plenty of stuff to accidentally bump. Oh, and open flames…
I hope you’re having a good weekend. I think we should start ours here with another giveaway. How does Sephora sound?
Yup, it’s that time again. Ready to go in 1-2-3…
- One (1) Sephora eGift card containing $50 sent to the winner by email (international readers, you may opt to receive $50 sent by PayPal instead).
- There are two ways to enter, and you can do both of them for two chances to win. First, you can enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post, a comment about anything at all, like, let’s say you could learn anything by osmosis — what would you want to learn? What’s your favorite food from this time of year? What’s your favorite place to buy discounted beauty products? Have you ever purchased clothing online? Hair question: how do you feel about victory rolls? — you get the idea.
- Second, you can enter by following me on Twitter @karenmbb and retweeting (RT) the following message:

Robyn says
I tried to think of something witty to write, but I’m still on my first cup of coffee.
But… wouldn’t it be cool if you could do ALL of your holiday shopping without ever stepping foot into a store? That’s my goal this year.
Janet says
How funny you asked about victory rolls. I just a convo about them w/a friend. Personally, I love anything and everything related to 40’s beauty and fashion. The clothes and the hair were just so sexy without being vulgar. I definitely think I was born in the wrong era.

I made a killer couscous with dried cranberries and pecans for Turkey Day this year, and it was soooo good. I think I’ll make that for dinner every now and then no matter the time of year!
Melissa says
I would love to learn a foreign language by osmosis, French or Spanish. I love all of the candy cane flavored treats this time of year, loving Dairy Queens Candy Cane blizzard. The only place I’ve bought discounted beauty products is a CCO store at an outlet mall. I’ve bought clothes online but usually they wind up as epic fails.
Lydia says
If I could learn anything by Osmosis I would make myself really good at math.
Katherine says
My favorite seasonal thing is Gingerbread Coffee from Trader Joe’s! It makes the cold mornings so much better.
Simona says
In this time of the year I love to eat baked pumpkin and to drink boiled (very very hot) wine,to warm up myself,because outside it’s very cold,actually it’s snowing .:) I know that any of us would be very happy if we could learn by osmosis,but I question myself,would I be more happy?I think that the answer is no,if you can’t forget something you’re not happy.But,sometimes I’d really wish to learn something very quickly,especially when I have the next day an exam (so,the answer is that I’d love to learn by osmosis,anything about law-because I’m at a law school).Good luck everyone!

what’s tab’s favorite kitty toy? (:

I had a traditional Thanksgiving lunch at my boyfriend’s place and then a yummy French inspired dinner at my house!
Katelynn says
Pumpkin bread!
sweeks1980 says
If I were home, I would have to say boiled custard is my favorite holiday food. It is apparently a southern thing, since I haven’t seen it since I moved to Boston (which is probably a blessing in disguise, since the stuff is incredibly fattening).
Neha says
My favorite site to buy discounted beauty items has definitely been beauty.com . I bought 3 NARS blushes for $20 each..OMG , these are my first NARS blushes…I waited for so long..but finally, I got the best of the lot and that too at such a price….they are Exhibit A, Taj Mahal and Cactus Flower…totally in love. Also, I got a great deal on thebalm.com, Mary & Betty Lou Manizers (full size) for $28 total…ain’t wow?
Neha
hazakaza says
Is it possible to get sick of turkey? Because I think I am. Not just turkey, actually, but all the traditional thanksgiving herbs–sage and rosemary and thyme and garlic and the caramelized flavors produced by the malliard reaction that occurs when roasting. I just want a bowl of fresh fruit and maybe some yogurt!
Danielle says
I would love to learn French by osmosis. I just love the way it sounds when it’s spoken. I love catching sales at Sephora!!! It has become my new favorite makeup store.

Laura Cabezas says
I can’t find discontinued products in France 🙁

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday 🙂
Alix says
I’d love to learn French by osmosis. Also figure skating, since it’s taking me a loooong time the usual way.

Heather says
My husband and I spent this week in Seattle, and had Thanksgiving with my brother. Unfortunately, neither one of them will eat pumpkin pie, which I really look forward to eating this time of year, and I couldn’t justify making or buying a whole pie just for me. So I think I’ll have to hunt down a slice of pie somewhere and some point this weekend.
quimerula says
So much to do, so little time!
ShannonW says
I changed my sign-in name because there was already a Shannon. I have 12 days left in Cape Town before I head back to the US! (where obviously I need to stock up on all the makeup I couldn’t get in South Africa. Pick me!)

Lauren Sutherland says
I get to see my boyfriend today after 3 months! yay!

my family spent TG pitying me because my boyfriend didn’t come with me. the man was volunteering at a soup kitchen. i don’t think pity is appropriate lol
Marian says
I wish I could learn to sew by osmosis. It’s something I’ve always wished I knew. I could save so much money and it would be fun making clothing for my family that was original with only the best fabrics.
Lisa says
Forget learning by osmosis, I want to stand by a Sephora and gain makeup products dud to osmosis.
aclearcutsign says
languages, for sure. Would love to continue learning French
Cecille says
Attacking my to do list. Which seems endless…. Wish I could do them by osmosis..
Kaianne says
I’d love to learn more about statistics through osmosis. I guess it sounds kind of silly but I feel like struggling with stats is what gives me such a hard time in my classes!

I would love to learn Spanish by osmosis. Sadly, I DID take Spanish classes in college, however most of the grammar has escaped me. My boyfriend is from Puerto Rico, so he speaks fluent Spanish. I’m relearning little by little when I practice my Spanish with him, but sometimes it’s so frustrating to try to say something but not have the words/correct grammar to say it.
Ruchita says
Have a great Saturday!

If I could learn anything by osmosis it would be a foreign language. I speak a little French and Spanish, but I’m far from fluent in either. Maybe make it a language I know nothing of at all, like Chinese or Korean.

Even though people call me the girl of 1000 hair-dos, I feel bored, and too lazy to try new ones. But I think victory rolls are SO retro and awesome. Wanna come over and do them for me?

No Drama Momma says
Yay, giveaway time! Victory rolls are awesome, but don’t really look right with my long hair. I think it’s best for hair that’s slightly longer than shoulder length.
maguire says
i would love to learn about politics and economics by osmosis… i know i should understand it better, but it’s so hard to pay attention to the news sometimes… i would also like to learn everything i need to graduate high school. it’s only november and i already have senioritis. college, here i come!

i also love honey ham, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole and the crescent rolls- real bakery crescents warmed up with butter– mmmmmmmm 🙂
Ashleigh Walls says
Mommy could use a little spoiling at Sephora!
Jenny says
C’mon, Karen! Don’t you have a degree in Biology? You should know better than to throw around the word “osmosis” like that. =)
But, if I could learn anything, say, instantly, I guess it would have to be… discipline. You can learn everything else if you already have discipline up your sleeve. It’s super corny, but that’s the best I could come up with.
Lauren says
Your blog has reintroduced me to blush, and made me think again about bronzer! Thanks for introducing me to more makeup 🙂
Christy O says
I am so ecstatic to have discovered NYX recently. Amazing reds.

Basketball season is back!!… Now my tv as more to watch !!
Joyce says
I went to the mall yesterday around 2pm and parking was crazy hard to find. I only bought some salt scrub from the Body Shop because they were having a 3 for $30 sale. At least I didn’t get trampled over by the crowd. =)
Sandy says
Just read my comment, sounds totally wrong and I can spell, I promise! I should have said. I am having steak for dinner and I’m looking forward to it. 🙂
Jill says
it’s a peppermint mocha time of year for me!
Katie Coleman says
My last toe on my foot is much bigger than other people’s. My hubby calls it my “Arnold toe.” It really creates a problem for french pedicures. Just thought I’d throw that out there….

Not loving the Victory Roll, but i love her website!
Catherine says
Loving the peppermint bark!
Janelle says
I was outside with friends last night and we saw Jupiter!! It looked like a bright star. It was amazing! We also saw a shooting star, Orion’s Belt, and the Big Dipper. Usually, it’s too cloudy at night to see the stars, but last night was a special exception and made for a really magical night.
Thanks for the giveaway, Karen!
LoveVex says
I love Victory Rolls. Totally wish I could manage them.

After your post of: I’ve Fallen for Fergie Fallen Boot – I ended up buying the Fergie Ryder Boot which btw are GORGEOUS!!! I was in a very “splurge mood” so I decided to buy my first NARS product after your review on the Lovejoy blush =) Love it!!! Then I was convinced by the NARS counter guy to try Taos blush… We’ll see how that goes!!! Thanks for all your posts & reviews =)
Quinctia says
If I could learn bu osmosis, one would think I’d know a few more languages by now! I’ve exposed myself to quite a few different languages through media. I learned Latin in high school, and I know some basic Spanish–I can ask for the bathroom, how much something costs, and can talk about food. But I’ve enjoyed plenty of media in languages besides those two.
jessica says
I love pumpkin pie!!I also really hope I win!
Steph says
Fell in love with Illamasqua intense lipgloss in Belladonna, after a half hour of searching for a perfect fuschia.
Kate & Zena says

Yao says
Pumpkin pie is def my favorite fall foodstuff. And I don’t really eat it the rest of the year.
Polished ponderings says
I wish I could learn foreign languages by osmosis – Spanish, French and German. I want some cookies & cream ice cream.
Kelsey says
Let’s say you could learn anything by osmosis — what would you want to learn?
I’d love to learn a really difficult language like Welsh or Klingon.
What’s your favorite food from this time of year?
I really find myself craving comfort foods when the weather gets colder; anything starchy and/or creamy.
What’s your favorite place to buy discounted beauty products?
Big Lots or Dollar Tree.
Have you ever purchased clothing online?
I do this more often than I buy clothes in the store.
Hair question: how do you feel about victory rolls?
Pretty, but not very practical for every day life.
Grace says
Celebrating Thanksgiving today with my family!
Savannah says
Just got home from a long drive back from my family! It’s so good to be home!
Lisa K. says
I made the most amazing dessert for Thanksgiving- an old Neapolitan specialty I learned while living there: A “Grain-Ricotta” cake, flavored with orange rind& orange-flower water, baked in a “Pasta Frola” cookie crust! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, Karen!
LauraA says
My favorite food around the holidays is stuffing of any kind: homemade, trashy, from-a-box, whatever.
I love victory rolls. They’re a wonderfully sleek, stylized, generally easy thing to do once you get the hang of it.
Thank you for another great giveaway opportunity, Karen. 🙂
Jenny says
I am having the worst saturday of my life – simply because of my nasty history paper. Reading three articles is the worst part .. and then I have to write 8pgs about them. Oh fun. Sigh. This post did cheer me up a bit though! 🙂
Diana says
Black Friday was the most stressful thing I have ever been through and I am never going through that Forever 21 checkout line again. But on a brighter note, loving the Smashbox ligloss set I bought. It was about $23, and at retail price it would have been $96! I am currently wearing “It Girl”.
Kylee says
i <3 green bean casserole!
Nora says
i love pumpkin pie
like a lot
Marina says
My parents never taught me and I never learned on my own how to swallow a pill. On Thanksgiving with my family I had an allergic reaction and needed to swallow a pill. My aunt bribed me by saying “If you swallow this I will get you any lipgloss and eyeshadow from Sephora.”. MOTIVATION is key to anything! I swallowed the thing on the first try. So now she owes me those. I guess I don’t need this gift certificate then…but I sure would like it. Sorry that was random!
Naomi says
My favorite place to buy discounted makeup is at cherryculture.com, allcosmeticwholesale.com, ebay.com and at CCOs they carry some products in the permanent line of the brands they carry.
Ivy says
I did all my Black Friday shopping online. No lines for me!
Jane says
it’s my birthday!

What did you buy for Black Friday? Any hauls? I didn’t get anything as this shopping event doesn’t exist in France, sadly!
steph b says
Would love to learn languages by osmosis. To be able to speak Italian, Spanish, and French would make me so happy.

Poor lil brother missed out cuz he had to work thanksgiving night an day after. I wish everyone had a chance to try these!
Mina says
Karen – I wanna win!!
Zoey says
I’m never able to buy clothes online because I’m an odd size. No matter how careful I am to get as many possible measurements as I can, you just can’t tell what will fit (at least for me) until you try it on. So I just tend to go into the stores and try things on… old-school style 😛
Step says
I have a cold so the only food I can think about right now is chicken soup.
Sami says
You have a great blog ! Will be checking in a lot (:
Caitlin says
The body shop has some crazy deals on right now Karen!
The Blossom Shed Beauty Blog says
Happy Day-After-Thanksgiving – hope you all survived the madness. I wish I could just be programmed once with about 6 different languages, like a file you upload. I studied Italian for about 3 months once, and never became fluent, but I once dreamt I was speaking it perfectly, and I was! Goes to show that subconciously we take in more than we realize. Still can’t speak it awake though:)

Beauty and the Scientist says

Actually I am learning the osmosis between capillary and cells at school, it is pretty fun!
Jeanie says
I wore red lipstick (for the first time) at our Thanksgiving dinner, and I got so many compliments!

Oh goodness, considering how much I’m struggling with my current school workload, I would love to be able to learn by osmosis or diffusion or whatever. I’m at the point where I’m desperately wishing I could just have a chip implanted or something. I’d get more sleep, at the very least!
Stephanie says
I love to shop online at forever21 and makemechic
Meghan says
Keeping my fingers crossed!
Kat says
Speaking of Sephora – I am so excited for Sephora to arrive in my country next year.Several bloggers and a couple of magazines wrote a bit about it, but I am sort of doubtful anyway since a specific date or month hasn’t been announced yet. One would think that something as big as Sephora would create more buzz in the media. I’m going to stay optimistic though; positive thinking all around!
Diana says
I just ate 3 mini Snickers. Who seriously stops at 1??
Cynthia says
I’m Filipino also and although I cooked a turkey for Thanksgiving, I was missing my mom’s pancit.

Recently I’m crazy about the UK makeup brand Sleek. I’m hauling their blushes like crazy, lol
Have you tried it? Their lippies are great too btw.
Mallory says
I feel like I’m forever on the search for that perfect, my lips but better shade. In particular, I want a sheer, hydrating lipstick that can be applied without a mirror. I’ve found a great MLBB lipgloss (MAC Deelight) and would like a lipstick equivalent, but maybe something peachier or pinker. Any ideas?
Megan says
I wore victory rolls as part of my halloween costume. They are very cute, but too high maintenance for my every day. My favorite food from this time of year is probably potatoes au gratin or pecan pie. If I could learn anything by osmosis I would learn how to be more organized and disciplined in my daily life. And I always get my moisturizer for a steal from Ebay – but often in mini or small sizes.
Tiffany says

I’m from a country where there are no international shipping for most online shopping websites. I got things i want by joining shopping sprees,and of course there’s charges applies.
So,i love the holiday season,where there are many sales,promotions and many holiday kits–they such a steal!!
the annoying part for me is when websites doing promos which they cant even handle the traffic!

today is my birthday,am tempting to get some more makeup kits for my birthday! yay!

Thanksgiving was a wonderful weekend this year! I was actually homesick once I got back to school, which is ironic because last year, I couldn’t wait to get away from being home. I guess as a freshman, I was more eager to be away. But now that I get along better with my parents since I’ve gone away for college, I actually enjoy being at home and with them! I hope your Thanksgiving holiday was as merry and blessed as mine was!

My cats were happy to get leftover turkey; for one, it was his first thanksgiving as an owned cat, so he was happily surprised. The kitty with end-stage renal failure decided that dark meat turkey was food, so he got all he wanted. (He’s getting extremely picky/has lost most of his appetite – baby food is often dissed now.)
