OK, it’s just not cool to mention a party unless you also talk about the food.
Because it’s the most important part! — or at least one of the most important parts, right? I mean, who wants to leave a party ravenously hungry? Shoot, not this girl. Huh uh. Not me.
Luckily, there were some pretty epic moments involving food at the baby shower on Saturday, like this lovely spread of Italian- and Filipino-inspired nommage…
Almost everything was homemade (some of my friends and their spouses are great cooks!).
I’ve been craving Italian food lately (actually, I’m always craving Italian food), and there were those cute little tea sandwiches with the crusts cut off, along with some caprese salad-style appetizers and a cheesy tortellini pasta salad dish that was DELISH.
And then my mom brought lumpia (sort of like a Filipino eggroll) and a Filipino noodle dish called palabok.
Oh, and then there was this cake…
OMG! It was a light, airy chantilly lace cake with almonds and berries (I believe it came from heaven/Whole Foods). I almost floated away right there…
CAAAAAAAAAKE!
It was one of those clutch-your-pearls, melt-in-your-mouth cakes. SO GOOD.
Yes, I did splurge a little (OK, a lot) on the sugar front, but I’ve been pretty good about watching what I eat because of the gestational diabetes. I just allowed myself a bit of a cheat day, though, because it was a special occasion.
We also played a game, too. Before the party, my friends emailed El Hub a list of questions about me and the pregnancy, and then asked me the same questions at the party — things like, “How often did she [me] get morning sickness?” (Answer: I never barfed, but I was almost constantly nauseous.) and “What smells could she not stand?” (Answer: pretty much everything strong.)
Overall, El Hub did pretty well. Most of our answers lined up. One of them was about food cravings, and my answer was frozen waffles with peanut butter and raisins, and he got that one spot on, word for word, LOL!
That one was probably easy for him because he was the person who made all of the waffles, haha.
Speaking of peanut butter…
Too Faced has a new eyeshadow palette coming out called the Peanut Butter and Jelly Eye Shadow Collection ($36, coming soon exclusively to Ulta), and the name sounds quite yummy right meow.
The palette was inspired by Peanut Butter, which is also one of the shades in the Too Faced Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar.
They took that shadow, Peanut Butter, and built a mini-palette with nine powder shadows around it. The pans are arranged into three color-coordinating rows, but of course you could also mix and match them however you want. Really, all of the colors look like they go together well.
I’m wearing the palette today…
Overall, the tones are warm, and the matte browns (as well as the copper and purple shades) contain a noticeable amount of red, which can make for tricky colors to wear sometimes, depending on your skin tone.
If you like the way you look in warm reddish or orangey browns (think MAC Soft Brown, MAC Saddle and MAC Swiss Chocolate), this could be a great palette for ya, and/or if you have blue eyes, I bet the orangey red tones would look amaaaaaaazing.
Oh! — before I forget, my friend Jen brought what could possibly be the most helpful baby shower gift in the history of the world. She put together an awesome basket of really handy, practical things, like…
And she even included some post-labor things I never thought about, like this support band and, um…some stool softener.
I know that’s TMI, but whatever!
It says a lot about a person when they can give you stool softener for your baby shower, OK? What a very thoughtful gift (thanks, Jen!). One of my other friends took a picture of it to remember for the next time she goes to a baby shower.
You don’t even have to wrap it. Just stuff everything in there. It’s still super cute.
In other news, happy Monday and first day of February to you! How’s your day coming along?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Tulipthecat says
February 1st, 2016 at 4:56 pmThe food looks so yummy and the palette looks like it could be a lot of fun! I love the basket idea. I actually bought the boogie wipes for myself when I have a cold. It’s quite nice and refreshing and keeps your nose from getting all dry and nasty.
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:40 pmI had no idea those wipes existed! Next time I get a cold I’m gonna get a pack for myself (I get dry skin around the nose, too).
How have you been? I feel like it’s been forever! Hope that you, Tulip and Jazmine are doing OK!

Tulipthecat says
February 2nd, 2016 at 11:20 amWe’ve been doing well. Tulip and Jazmine wanted to let Tabs know that although he might not get as much attention when the new baby comes he will definitely get more attention as Baby Girl gets bigger. Tulip and Jazmine use to be afraid of my nieces when they were babies. Now when they come over all they want to do is pet them. Sometimes she’s playing on her Ipad and the cats are on her lap being petted. Also she feeds them lots of treats! She knows where they are hidden. Tabs should have a column where other cats give him advice on the arrival of Baby Girl 🙂
Kwmechelle says
February 1st, 2016 at 4:59 pmI hadn’t planned on getting the pb&j palette but the swatches look amazing. And what a lovely & practical gift basket. And I agree, anytime a friend gives you a stool softner, that’s when you know you have a friend, indeed! Let the countdown begin!
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:38 pmYou could rock this palette! It’s quite warm but I can see it on ya. 🙂
How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun?

Kwmechelle says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:47 pmNope, kinda low key weekend. Although I did walk/run 3.7 miles on the treadmill- if you call that fun. It took me exactly one hour & I rewarded myself with a green smoothie from Tropical Smoothie. I’m training to run a half marathon in April. Heaven help me ’cause I’m gonna need it. Who knows? This palette may be my next treat from me, to me, with love 🙂
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:16 pmGirl, you know that’s my idea of a good time. I miss running! 🙂 I’m so excited for your half marathon in April and I will be with you in spirit when you do it. Have you worked on your music playlist yet?
Kwmechelle says
February 2nd, 2016 at 3:58 amGreat question! I’ve got a “workout” playlist but after Saturday’s workout, I realized I need to add MORE MUSIC. That’s on my agenda. And I’ll need you with me in spirit during the marathon. Holy moly, batman. What have I gotten myself into?! ?
Tatiana says
February 1st, 2016 at 5:14 pmAll that food looks so delicious! Sounds like you had a great Saturday!
That postpartum support band!!! Yes!!! Wish I had one of those after I delivered. You’ve got a good friend there.
Pretty palette, especially Jammin.
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:35 pmHi Tatiana,
I have absolutely NO idea about the postpartum support band. Seriously, I’d be lost without her.
I hope you had a nice Monday! How was your weekend? What did you do?
Karen recently posted … The Day in Beauty, Vol. 5: The Too Faced Peanut Butter and Jelly Eye Shadow Palette, Party Noms, and the Ultimate in Practical Baby Shower Presents
Tatiana says
February 1st, 2016 at 8:07 pmYeah, you are definitely going to like that support band after baby girl is born. It takes a while and a bit of work to get those stretched out ab muscles back to what they once were. It just feels good to wear something snug and compressing after the birth. Or at least I thought it did. YMMV.
I got slaughtered by my personal trainer in the gym this morning. But I can already feel how much stronger I’m getting because of him.
The rest of the weekend was laid back. Hanging out with Nora kitty as the DH is in Tokyo for business and DDaughter joined a new dating group and is suddenly going out on a lot more dates. 🙂
Jen (Jennifer) says
February 2nd, 2016 at 5:04 pmKaren-
It’s Jen, your former Novato girl here. When I was at SFSU in the “last century” I worked at The Emporium at Stonestown Mall in SF. (Do you remember The Emporium? I still miss it, could always find something there. Miss I. Magnin’s more.) I worked in the “Foundation Dept.” (Yep, I am a trained bra fitter! Actually I’ve been to several bra-fitting schools. Most ladies are wearing the WRONG BRA & the WRONG SIZE. If it doesn’t have seams in the cup and your are over a B cup, get rid of it! It’s not doing you any favors.) This being Stonestown we had a large clientele of European immigrants and immigrants from elsewhere, too. All these ladies, post-partum would come in and buy a girdle one size too small to help things “shrink back to size.” So said garment your friend gave you should be helpful. Looking forward to BG! I think “Jennifer” would be the perfect name for her!!!

Chelsea says
February 1st, 2016 at 5:21 pmLooks like a good party! That’s a great game, I usually hate baby shower games. And I love Sandra Boynton, her board books are all so good.
I’m actually unable to eat peanuts / peanut butter, sadly. They’ve gone from causing me indigestion (for years and years) to actually making me have a vomiting type reaction to them. Super weird. I’m not allergic where I’d worry about dying but I can’t eat them without terribleness. Plus, because of that, even the smell kind of sickens me. I eat tons of almond butter though.
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:34 pmIt was a fun party. Super chill and just what I wanted. 🙂
I like almond butter, by the way. Do you have a favorite brand? I think the only one I’ve ever tried was the one from Trader Joe’s.

February 1st, 2016 at 6:46 pmI don’t have a favorite! I like them all and buy whatever is available.
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:13 pmAhh ok. Sometimes when I put almond butter on toast I like to sprinkle a little bit of maple syrup and some sea salt on top. It sounds weird but the contrast between the sweet and the salty is very yummy.
Chelsea says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:14 pmOooh! I’m not a salty-sweet fan except for caramel, but I can see where that would be good!

Janet says
February 1st, 2016 at 5:44 pmMy pro tip: saturate (and I do mean saturate) a pack of baby wipes with witch hazel. Put in fridge. Take one or two into the bathroom with you each time, post-partum, to wipe with, for about a week or two. Heaven on your lady bits. I would also recommend putting a box of mega-absorbency pads into the freezer for post-partum use. TMI? Maybe. Refreshing? Oh my glob yes. Invaluable.
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:32 pmHi Janet,
Both those things sound wonderful! Thank you for the pro tips. If you have any more, I’ll take ’em!

February 1st, 2016 at 6:06 pmI was wondering why there was no mention of the food in an earlier post today other than about the cake, which does look amazing.
The eggrolls and wings look delish!
I completely forgot about stool softener, although I don’t think I ended up taking any because I ended up having a c-section.
If I don’t say it now I’ll forget, I wish you a relaxing, safe and joyful birth experience. 🙂 🙂 🙂 Speaking of, does hub have instructions to send out a tweet?

February 1st, 2016 at 6:49 pmOh my, my kids and I LOVED LOVED LOVED Barnyard Dance and all the Boynton books. My son’s whole room was done with the Boynton barnyard animals, and it was so darling. He’s 22 years old now. *sigh*
I can’t wait to meet your Baby Girl!

That’s so sweet that your son’s room was decorated with the barnyard animals! I bet those 22 years went by so fast (that’s what everyone tells me). Is he your only child?

What did you this weekend? Anything fun? Oh and this is random but a while back we talked about NARS Isolde. Did you ever end up picking it up?
Ashleigh says
February 2nd, 2016 at 12:23 pmHi Karen,
We had a pretty low key but nice weekend 🙂 The only thing of note was attending a BBQ/party that one of our local bars put on that serves a lot of craft beer, so the boy got to try a bunch of good brews he wanted to try and I had some fancy pants “anise cider”. 🙂 And no I still have not, it lurks like a sad, beautiful jewel at the very bottom of my Sephora loves list, sitting there for I think YEARS now, lol! One day I’ll snag it up 🙂 Hope your week is going well!
Heather L says
February 1st, 2016 at 6:56 pmLooks like a great party, and you deserve it! I am SO excited for the Peanut Butter palette!!! Peanut butter is one of my top fave eyeshadow shades! Love the way the neutral Browns are complimented by the “jelly” pops of color in the purple shades! These palettes from Too Faced are among the eye palettes I gravitate towards most in my collection, and I anticipate this being a new favorite!
Karen says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:24 pmHi Heather,
This palette has “everyday workhorse” written all over it. I really like that they included some mattes! Yay for matte transition shades. 🙂
I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Holly says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:08 pmLook at all that lovely loot! How exciting! Yay for the practical people in your life. My cousin’s baby shower was Saturday as well & though she received 10 boxes of diapers, I was the only one who included wipes as well.
I love Sandra Boynton’s books; they’re ones I collect for my nieces & don’t mind rereading them ad nauseum. She rereleased one recently for adults called “CHOCOLATE: The Consuming Passion”.
The PB&J palette is adorable! I’m thinking I’d have to swatch it in person to see how the shadows look on me. I’m fair-skinned with cool tones but I have dark brown hair with a touch of red & dark green eyes so I suspect I could wear them.
I’m finishing up laundry tonight for my trip to Arizona on Wednesday. I’ve been less concerned with packing clothes than I am with curating makeup & selecting books. I haven’t made the transition to an eReader & I rather wish I had one right now.
Jennifer says
February 1st, 2016 at 7:10 pmLooks like you had an awesome party Karen. The food looks so good, especially that cake. I can’t resist a good cake. My favorites are Tres Leches, Dulce de Leche, and Strawberry Shortcake. Idk if that counts but I love it so much! I am really excited to hear what name you picked!
Btw, when are you announcing interns for your blog? I am excited to see who you picked!

February 1st, 2016 at 7:45 pmWow Jen thought in everything, she is going to be your fairy godmother in terms of motherhood.
All the food looked so yummy *needs to search in the fridge*. I haven’t heard before about that game of questions, instead here in Mexico they have games like trying to put a diaper to a baby doll blindfold or measuring the mom’s belly with toilet paper. They also play bingo but instead of numbers they use baby products.

I will be getting the PB&J Palette if it doesn’t smell super-strongly of PB. Strong PB smell usually makes me nauseous. I hate PB except 2 or 3 times a year when I want it twice a day for a week or so. I absolutely loathe PB and choc unless it’s Butterfingers or Whatchamacallit. I know, I’m weird.

i’m OBSESSED with warm tones , so it’s right up my alley . the pops of purple are a plus .
Nicole - Beyond the Pale and Freckled says
February 2nd, 2016 at 12:15 pmAnother thing to stock up on if you haven’t are super absorbent overnight pads. You’ll probably get some to take home from the hospital, but the bleeding lasts weeks so it’s nice to have your own stuff at the ready at home too. 🙂 And you want to start taking that softener right away basically, ask the nurses if they don’t offer it. I also got the witch hazel pads at the hospital and took them home, very helpful! And while I wasn’t that uncomfortable with my first despite a major tear, I could barely sit after my second without Tylenol and Advil around the clock. Also helped with the after pains (cramps from your uterus shrinking back to normal size).
Alexis says
February 2nd, 2016 at 12:29 pmI was constantly nauseous, too during both pregnancies but I never barfed. Ugh, I don’t know what’s worse really cuz if you do barf isn’t there some temporary relief? I should give you all my extra swaddling blankets – Izzy didn’t use all of them. I love the gifts you got – yes, very practical.
I may have to check out that PB&J palette but honestly I think I may like the chocolate collections more.
Erin says
February 2nd, 2016 at 3:17 pmCalifornia Baby makes great stuff! They will give you some crazy stool softeners at the hospital, you might want to ask for a take home bottle.
As for PB&J it’s a bit warm for this cool toned pale gal.
BTW, I’d cut a b*tch for some lumpia with banana sauce… or banana lumpia… OMG…

That PB&J palette…I swore I didn’t need it…I *don’t* need it, I’m awash in neutrals…but gosh, how pretty! Those colors seem just right for this pale, blue-eyed blond. I’m sure my other Too Faced palettes would welcome a little peanut buttery friend.:-D
