“Oh, my head…” said the big beefsteak tomato plant, “I feel like crap this morning.” Many of its leaves were yellow and speckled brown.
“You big baby!” chortled one of the roma tomato plants nearby. “You don’t even have a head!”
“I don’t?” said the beefsteak plant, genuinely surprised. “Are you sure?”
“Of course I’m sure,” answered the roma plant. “You’re just a stupid plant. I, on the other hand, am sophisticated and wise.”
“Oh…” said the beefsteak. “Do you know why I feel so bad?”
The beefsteak wasn’t doing well. Unlike the roma, who lived in a large wooden planter box with excellent drainage, the beefsteak lived in a large 18-inch plastic pot with a single small hole at the base for drainage. The pot sat flush on the wooden slats of the deck, lacking clearance beneath the pot for ventilation and drainage. Its soil was damp to the touch, even though the last watering was yesterday morning. Mushrooms sprouted up from the soil around the tomato’s stalk.
“You drank too much last night, you big goof!” said the roma, whose soil was cool and dry. Multiple large drainage holes were cut into the base of its wooden container.
“I did?” replied the beefsteak, confused. “I don’t… Oh, yeah! I remember now. Duuude, last night was off the chain! I drank all night.”
“Idiot,” interrupted the roma.
“What time did I get home?” asked the beefsteak.
The roma paused. “What time did you get home?” it asked. “Seriously? Are you really that dense? You never even left the deck. You just sat there drinking water the whole time.”
“I did?” said the beefsteak. “Whoa! Huh-huh… It must have been one hell of a night!”
LOL! That was fun… 🙂 Good morning, glory! Rise and shine, my friend. It’s going to be a beautiful day. This little story actually has some truth to it because I think I am overwatering my plants. A couple of the tomatoes aren’t doing too well, and one of the potted lavender plants.
They all like different amounts of water, so it’s a work in progress. I’m still trying to figure it out. Plus, if you’re a plant, Tabs isn’t the easiest co-gardener to work with. He bites…plants.
I’m just getting started with my day, having my first cup of coffee and fiddling around. I hope your weekend gets off to a great start.
One of my coworkers (yes, I’m referring to Tabs) is having a birthday on Monday, so we’ll probably do something fun.
Talk to you soon. Good luck in the giveaway.

I highlight occasionally but have never tried contouring
I face similar challenges with gardening! I can’t my zucchini plant happy :/
Love your blog and your style Karen 🙂
My plans this weekend revolve around watching the French Open finals. I love me some Djokovic!
I also enjoy contouring. I have a chubby face, and it makes a world of difference. I’m not great at making it look natural yet, but it is wonderful.
Aw, poor beefsteak tomato plant! I have given up on plants. I had a money tree when I first moved in with The Man, in 2010. It soon died, probably from root rot 🙁 I bought a Peace Lily a few months ago, because I read it’s good with cleansing the bathroom air.
I left for a week, and I came back to a wilted plant. 🙁 So I have given up.
Plants are wonderful, but I find that gnats always gravitate to the plants. booooo.
I will probably invest in more air purifiers. 🙁 I wish I could take care of plants as well as my parents. *sigh*
HAve a lovely weekend, Karen!
I luuurve chocolate milk!
I enjoy a light contour, but I rarely highlight since my skin is pretty oily.

Chocolate milk, yes, but dark chocolate, oh yes!
This weekend I’m going to see my friends perform in their new band!! Can’t wait!! 🙂
My vegetable plants aren’t doing so well either. I may have to go shove some carrots in the ground some night after bedtime so that my little boy isn’t so disappointed!
Ugh, packing :(. We are moving next week…
I so wish I could grow ANYTHING. Most spefically tomatoes.
Yes! I loveeeee to contour and highlight!
I’m testing out Sonia Kashuk Dewy Luxe Cheek and Lip Balm today in Charmed, loving it so far!
The most exhilarating thing I’ve done is hike to the peak of Mount Woodson (Potato Chip Rock) in Poway, CA! I’ve got a fear of heights, so it took every ounce of courage in me to get onto that ledge!
Spending the weekend celebrating the hubby birthday. Woo hoo!
Chocolate milk? Always YES!!
<3
I highlight sometimes, but I have yet to find a contour product and application method that does no look completely unnatural.
Chocolate milk ~ yes!
Such a lovely givaway karen! Will be holding my thumbs till they turn blue 😉
Plans for the weekend: I’ve caught up on dishes and laundry this morning and then I am headed to Target and Trader Joe’s after lunch. My husband and I are going out for Mexican food tonight. I am taking my mom to an art museum tomorrow and to lunch at the Milwaukee Public Market after.

What are your plans for this weekend?
Karen will do some reviews for for the blog, do some cleaning in my accounting office, caring for a dog that passes here, play with my fluffy cat
I will also do some work that I have pending, I think I will not leave the house after just gonna relax.
The # 1 gardening tip? I love gardening, alias you gave me a great idea, I cut the dried leaves of the tree of the garden.
What is the most exciting thing you’ve ever done?
I think it was down a super high slide at the water park I went with my mother, and she did not want me to come down, then I went and she was hidden down there calling me to get down.
Favorite talk show? Danilo Gentilli Sbt
I am very proud to make my parents happy with my work
You do not highlighting and / or contour with your makeup? I love makeup, and not do contour (still do not know) I play on more bases in the face of spending my favorite is the hourglass illusion.
Milk Chocolate: yes or no? Yes I love chocolate!
YES chocolate milk!!!
Hi karen, hope you are having a great weekend. My son is a big chocolate milk lover, I like it some too.
I’m proud of (and thankful for) my happy, healthy son!
My Favorite talk show is the Wendy Williams show, I guess I love juicy gossip and how she keeps it real with her audience.
I don’t have any plans for this weekend.. I’ll just stay in my bed and watch some good movies 😀 oh.. and of course i love chocolate milk *.*
I am proud of the fact I told my husband we could go visit his family for a week. You have no idea what a challenge this will be!
Chocolate milk and milk chocolate!
I’ve never been a fan of chocolate milk. I just stick to water, coffee, and green tea 🙂
NO to chocolate milk!
ive had the worst allergies outside!
just getting into contouring/highlighting now!
YES to chocolate milk! Well, chocolate almond milk..
Love highlighting – not got contouring down yet!
I can’t stand to leave the house without my face contoured and highlighted.
Chocolate milk: yes
I love to highlight and contour! It is part of my daily makeup routine. I use Too Faced Chocolate soileil to contour, and I have a number of favorite powder highlights to finish. Much of my highlighting is done with whatever luminizing highlighter pen I have laying around!
I occasionally highlight but contouring scares me. The only reason I even own bronzer is from subscription boxes.
I’ll be working all weekend. Which is no fun because the weather is beautiful!
The most exhilarating thing I’ve probably ever done is rock climbing a night. I was terrified while doing it, but it must have released tons of good neurochemicals, because I felt great afterwards!
So excited for my sister to come to live with me on the east coast. She’s moving from San Francisco this week! We just moved from the Bay Area last year. Barely surviving, but will be a lot more tolerable with my sis here! Would love to win and go shop with my sis when she gets here Thursday!
Thank you
I Don’t Have A Green Thumb … Or Wait, Am Just LaZy To Be In The YArd Ever.
Yes to chocolate milk!!!
enjoying a relaxing morning in the garden
We’re celebrating my Mom’s 83rd birthday today!
Speaking of gardening, this weekend, meaning later today, Jeff and I are heading to Home Depot to buy the materials for the big fence he’s going to build around my garden to stop the critters from eating all the veggies I’m trying to grow. The rabbits ate all the kale that came back from last year down to the stalk, except the left the Russian kale. I guess they didn’t like the taste of that one, and I don’t either! Great giveaway
Allison C recently posted … Weekly Roundup 7 June 2014 Beauty Blog Coalition
Hi Allison,
I hope the critter fence works! We have lots of varmints here too. Every time we try to plant anything tasty in our actual outside landscape area it’s toast within days. All of our tomatoes and things are on our deck because it’s the only place the burrowing buggers can’t reach!
Good luck and have a great weekend.
Ahhhh! Excited excited excited for those NARS shadows!
Chocolate milk always 🙂
The only way I like milk not with cereal is if it is chocolate milk!
Chocolate milk: HECK YES
I have a belly button
Chocolate milk in cereal – yes!
No plans this weekend which makes me very happy!! Love lazy weekends, do have a little work to do but I normally do every weekend.
I do not know how to properly highlight/ contour but it is always something I have wanted to learn!
Way too lazy to ever attempt contouring, haha. I always highlight, though!
My parents are visiting this weekend. It’ll be fun hanging out with family.
I don’t really have any gardening tips, but I haven’t killed my plants at work yet 🙂 I have 3 lilies that are blooming right now.
I’d love to use this gift card as a gift for my mom! Her birthday is coming up fast and I don’t know what to get her!
I’m am qvc obsessed!!! It’s an addiction I’m truly ok with 😉 It helps feed my make-up/ skincare obsession
I’m flying out to look at apartments for my new job tomorrow. Exciting!
I’m very proud of my sons!
It’s my dad’s birthday on Monday too! They’re so lucky to have beautiful weather for the weekend.
For years I’ve wanted a “zen” space in the far corner of my backyard. This week, I found the perfect teak bench and little end table. They’re set behind a bed of lilies and hostas, underneath an old pine tree. I nestled a little ceramic bird bath in between the tree roots, and decorated around that with some smooth river stones. It’s such a sweet little refuge now!
I don’t personally like chocolate milk, but my kids drink it everyday.
Going to the lake this weekend! Can’t wait. I need some sun and water fun.
next week is finals week!! Yay for summer vacay!
hiiyooitscat recently posted … Monthly Favorites (April 2014)
I highlight every day. I usually do it on my cheekbones, brow bone, and in the corner of my eye. It’s really simple, but it makes me look so awake and fresh. I usually only contour if I’m feeling fancy (or pale).
When I have the time I would love to go to Sephora and have someone show me how to do contouring.
I contour almost every day, but i only highlight on special occasions !
I highlight and contour every time I do my makeup
I’m in Atlanta this weekend. Plans include The World of Coca-Cola and the Georgia Aquarium with my (almost) 8 year old. We both love staying in hotels!
I am spending the whole weekend with my sister! Gonna pig out on pizza and gelato. yummm.
Chocolate milk: YES!!!
Chololate milk…YESSS PLEASE!!:D
Just have plans to have a relaxing and laid back weekend~
I will lightly highlight and contour for special occasions or if I’m going out on the weekend, but I definitely don’t have time in the morning to do it on a daily basis!
I love chocolate milk, especially Silk’s chocolate soy milk. Yum.
This weekend we are going to a pro soccer game.
I don’t highlight, I feel like i already wear heavy foundation so I only use blush.
Yes always to chocolate milk! I’m a personal trainer and it’s a great post-workout recovery drink. Oh, and it’s delicious, of course 🙂
Add peat moss to your top soil when planting.
I just hauled some new lipsticks and am absolutely giddy!
I’m loving the Queen Latifah show…it’s amazing.
I highlight and contour ALWAYS…but I live in southwest Florida so I’m always supposed to look like a sun goddess, right? In the fall and winter I will use only matte bronzed though. But it’s summer now and the glitter. Is. On. 🙂
I watch Live! With Kelly & Michael religiously!!! My 3 year old says Kelly is Mommy’s best friend!
No big plans this weekend for us, just some relaxing in the – finally – nice mid 80’s weather. A big YES to chocolate milk.
I have my endterm exams on Tuesday, so I’mma spend my weekend studying.
Chocolate milk: yes!
I don’t really have any gardening tips, unfortunately…I tend to kill my plants (by accident, of course)!
Karen, love your new hair
My greatest pride and joy is my daughter!
poor beefsteak tomato, I hope it gets better soon from hangover.
Chocolate milk? Yes!
Good luck with your garden, have a wonderful weekend and Tabs birthday!
I usually always highlight and contour. Unless its just a no makeup makeup kinda day then I will only highlight.

I would so love to win this! I really want the Too Faced Chocolate Bar and some Bare Escentuals Ready shadows!
My best gardening tip? Go to the farmers market!
I love highlighting, I don’t contour very often since I’m usually in a rush
I try to contour but nothing too dramatic. I have a very round face so I’m not convincing anyone haha
I am most proud that I got accepted to a dietetic internship and will be a registered dietitian by 2015!
My plans this weekend are to just spend some quality time with my husband! 🙂
I finally caved in and bought Tom Ford brow sculptor and I LOVE it!
Chocolate milk: hell yes!!!!
Meg recently posted … MAC Osbournes Collection Haul & Swatches!
Chocolate milk is an absolute yes, at any time. First rule of chocolate milk? Always say yes to chocolate milk. On a completely different note, i wish that I could manage to keep a plant alive-I am an unintentional plant murderer, unfortunately.
Yes to chocolate milk!
oh, yes. . . chocolate milk, chocolate almonds, chocolate ANYTHING!
I love to use Rms Living Luminizer as a natural lit from within highlighter. I seem to have lost it at a hotel last week. I love it so much i think I’ll have to splurge and get another one!
I do “cheater” contouring. I don’t go all out with lighter and darker foundation, but I use bronzer to add depth to my cheeks, forehead and jawline. Then blush above the bronzer, and a little luminizing powder on the top of my cheekbones.
I have been LOVING highlighting and contouring lately! And yes to chocolate milk…but only if it’s almond milk 🙂
Thanks for this generous giveaway, Karen! Have a great weekend, and God Bless!
“Your #1 gardening tip?”
I’m shocked, SHOCKED, that the plants I planted in March actually grew. No tips here, just pure amazement that I didn’t actually kill them!
Chocolate milk = YES! lol
This weekend I’m going to finish putting together a sketchbook and send it off to the printers. My friend’s mom is in town and I’m going to do karaoke with them and it’s going to be both terrible and amazing.
When my cat was chewing cords I gave him a treat that’s kind of a chewy stick thing from the pet store, he likes chewing on that better and leaves my cords a lone, might help with the plant chewing.
Chocolate Milk = yes!
Yes to chocolate milk. No to highlighting, just because I’m not comfortable with it yet, but I have started trying out contouring.
I highlight and contour everyday with my make up. My face doesn’t feel complete without it!
Chocolate milk – definite yes! Especially the kind you get in little cartons at Starbucks… yum! Perfect with a little bit of Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzing powder contouring. 😀
Yes to chocolate milk! lol
Yes! I always contour and highlight.
I’m trying to find a good highlighter/illuminator. I fell in love with Benefit’s High Beam, but my wallet did not, so I am in need of a dupe. I have my eye on NYX’s illuminator right now.
Chocolate milk: YES!
Chocolate milk, YUM!! I love the super rich, local brand that comes in glass bottles.
Yes to chocolate milk!
Chocolate milk: yes, yes, and more yes. Especially if it’s the kind in the glass bottle. Much like Coca-Cola, it just tastes better.
I highlight on a daily basis. It’s just a little something that helps me look more awake and gives some vibrance to my skin. I really dig Nars Illuminator in Orgasm. I received a sample of it the last time in Sephora and it is absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately, I’m a broke college student and I can’t afford to dish out $30 to buy a full size. Hopefully I’m able to win this gift card so I can make up the cost!
Trying to reduce my beauty spending, but it’s so hard when there are so many pretty new things! Love the Nars eyeshadows.
Chocolate milk is a definite yes and I plan on going to my best friend’s graduation tomorrow!
Yes chocolate milk! And I’m off to church camp for the next 4 days…
I just came home from two hours at the vet – it looks like my little guy has a back injury. I just hope it heals quickly.
Weather permitting I am sooo hopping in the pool this weekend!
I’m hanging with my best friend all weekend!
This was so cute! And informative – I didn’t know that yellow tomato leaves = overwatering 🙂
I don’t contour or highlight because of not having the time and with a very round face and mild rosacea…I think it would be an exercise in futility.
Otherwise I LOVE chocolate milk!
My plans this weekend involve learning to drive. ACHH. At least I don’t have mandatory driving classes like minors do. Oh, Public Transport. Why are you not as available here in the States as you are abroad?
Waay yes to choco milk 🙂
Chocolate milk? Unreal. so good haha.
Chocolate milk is ALWAYS a yes!
Sadly, I say no to chocolate milk 🙁
While I like tomato plant pictures, I was hoping for cat pictures. ;_;
Karen you have to see this video! Too cute for Caturday!
http://youtu.be/G4Sn91t1V4g
And: Chocolate milk: yes! 🙂
I loooove cats!
I love cats
Chocolate milk Yes, but needs to be dark chocolate or it must have
allot of chocolate on it, I don’t like the taste of milk and more if its fresh.
My best warm chocolate milk I have ever had come from a coffee machine they had In a a school where I was making my internship as teacher.
I love warm and cold chocolate milk, But like I said it has to be thick and have allot of chocolate milk on it 🙂
Talk show: umm Jimmy Kimmel has some funny sketches we like to watch :), But mostly I am not into talk shows
No plans this weekend — just relaxing time with my boo!
No to chocolate milk and regular milk.
Yes to chocolate soy milk!!!
I’m very proud of myself, I recently graduated college last Saturday, with my associates in science! This was a huge accomplishment for myself and my family, especially since I am the first in my family to receive a degree. Although I have another 2 years to complete my bachelors im proud to say, I am making my parents proud.
Love chocolate but not milk. I will eat milk chocolate but prefer dark 🙂
mmm chocolate milk all the way
Just did a 5k today. So much fun!
Yes, I love chocolate milk.
Chocolate milk is yummy 🙂
Im taking my 2 kids to watch a parade.Our town has a week long festival kinda thing..used to be called the azalea festival but they changed it..&then take em to the park cause they have free pony rides this weekend&my 4yr old is horse crazy (she calls em “hee haws”) Then its church&resting up for the coming week lots of graduations&partys..
I need to clean.
Chocolate milk yes! I love chocolate milk it’s so yummy:)
Love the new hair you posted about a few entries ago, Karen, it looks super good on you! 🙂
No gardening tips to pass on but I totally get it. Tried my hand at gardening for the first time ever and it went super well. Waiting for my tomatoes to ripen is killer, might’ve botched transplanting my peppers but that’s okay, and my cilantro and peas are shooting up like no one’s business. Finagling the watering process is rough especially since I have the moisture retentive type of soil in my pots right now so I’m still getting the hang of it. Good luck to you on your plants too, I hope your tomato plant fares better soon. 🙂
My plans for this weekend are to start getting my garden planted. Here in the Rockies we are still having frost warnings at night so I haven’t been able to get much in the ground yet!
My son’s high school graduation ceremony was today!!
Just got home from vacation so I’m doing my best to relax the rest of the weekend away before it’s back to work on Monday morning.
Yes to chocolate milk, I love it!
I do highlight not that into contouring.
I’m terrible at gardening, but I just bought a basil plant so I’m hoping it survives!
A big yes to chocolate milk!
Chocolate milk: yes!
I’ve been loving TooFaced Chocolate Soleil!
I’ve tried highlighting and contouring before but it’s not something I do everyday
I am a big fan of highlighting when putting on make-up! Conturing not so much as i find it difficult to get the right shade I would rather have less facial shape and not look like i have orange streaks below my cheek bone. If i knew how to contour properly on my face shape I totally would
i used to like chocolate milk but not anymore.
Chocolate milk always oddly makes me thirstier?
Tabs i want your pawagraph!!! meowsxoxo
Chocolate is what first got me to accept almond and soy milks… yummm.
My #1 gardening tip? Location, location, location. A plant may thrive in one spot and wither & die in another. Just one end of your deck to the other could make all the difference! Experiment.
I love Ellen!
I’m spending the weekend house hunting! Lots of fun but also stressful. So many choices!
Oh can’t wait for nars to come out
Try a nitrogen rich fertilizer on the tomato plant, that could help. If it is one of the different wilt diseases though, you will just have to ditch the plant. Also, heck yeah to chocolate milk!
I have to slightly highlight and contour everyday, otherwise i’d look dead.
I really love Sephora 🙂
And I also really love your blog!!!
Love watching you on YouTube. Videos are fun and helpful. I too just cut my hair to a shoulder length bob. Would love to know your hair care tips and how you style it.
Chocolate Milk: YES!
“One of my coworkers (yes, I’m referring to Tabs) is having a birthday on Monday, so we’ll probably do something fun.” <— I laughed so hard at this. I've always thrown my dogs little birthday celebrations, too. Never too many excuses for cake.
I die over those new nars shadows!
Always in a rush, no time for countouring!
I don’t do highlighting nor contouring because I have some acne marks right where these would be located, cheeks and chin….and there’s no point in only contouring my forehead and nose(especially the nose cause I always touch up with foundation there, so I would easily erase the effect.
Always yes to chocolate milk! 🙂
Chocolate milk: Yes or No?
It’s definitely a big yes for me! I loooooove it so much. <3
Chocolate milk: Yes or No?
It’s definitely yes for me! I love the stuff so much. <3
I do highlight but I’m embarrassed to admit I don’t contour! I’m kind of scared to be honest lmao.
I love the Ellen Show!
I do contouring but I don’t really do highlighting.
I’ve tried contouring, but my boyfriend says it just makes my face look darker :/ Not sure if I’m doing it wrong, but haven’t had time to try properly yet.
I always contour and highlight, I just love it!
I need to study this weekend but it’s not so bad, sitting in the sun on my balcony and eating grapefruits and mangos
i’ve never been all that into highlighting. At least on my its the type of thing that looks great right when its first applies but starts to look a bit off after a couple hours. Contouring on the other hand is something I do almost daily
no to regular milk in general… almond milk all the way!!!
Highlighting and contouring? Yes! I do not always highlight though. And speaking of chocolate milk, I just ordered Too Faced’s Chocolate Milk bronzer, for contouring! 😉
Gardening: find out what you can about how to care for whatever type of plant(s) you’re growing & try to follow that. And don’t over-water them. Water ’em just right.

yes, to chocolate milk
I love chocolate milk! I love everything chocolate 😀
The most exhilarating thing I ever did was maybe a month ago. I went ziplining. It was so awesome and I’m definitely doing it again.
Maleficent! that’s the weekend plans
My #1 gardening tip is don’t be embarrassed if you can’t start things from seed. There is nothing to be ashamed of if you only plant really hardy things!
I love chocolate milk, but I don’t eat dairy anymore, so boohoo!!
My favorite talk show is Ellen!
Happy Birthday to Tabs! I have to make a Sephora run today and maybe I will hit Ulta too. I keep thinking about Too Faced Ala Mode Eyes palette.
Favorite talk show is Steve Harvey. When I was in junior high I had chocolate milk and those little Hostess Donettes for breakfast everyday. The breakfast of champions!
Goood day and good news!:)
My favorite talk shows are Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon!
Chocolate /almond/ milk is a definite yes!
Weekend plans: 20 mile run (check). Chocolate milk: Yes! Great for recovery, had some when I survived running 🙂
Chocolate milk?! The answer is always yes! 🙂
Chocolate milk? Yes yes yes! I think I’ll make some now 🙂
I went to the D.C. pride parade. It was awesome!
I’m not the biggest fan of chocolate milk, but strawberry milk’s pretty good!
I actually mopped my kitchen floor today, the poor thing was desperate for it. As for chocolate milk, yes please, every once in a while.
Chocolate milk is ALWAYS a definite yes!
I’m very proud of the fact that Id delivered a baby with no drugs, and I’m proud that my kids like me and enjoy my company.
My plans for this week are to be able to finish my second chapter of my Master, I need to do 40 pages in fifteen days, average 4 pages a day! And here I am trying to win this award for copensar week will be tight! haha
I always highlight and use bronzer. But I usually just use bronzer to subtly warm up my face, to give it a natural glow. I hardly ever use bronzer to contour, except for maybe on occasion, like a special day like date night or a girls night out…
Chocolate milk is the only kind worth drinking!

Last summer, I went on a white water rafting trip with my company. It was amazing.
Ugggg Sunday fun day sadly home from Nashville, missing my friends & now the real fun begins- unpacking & laundry 🙁
Happy Birthday a day in advance!
My gardening tip is really simple but also really green! My shower takes awhile for the water to heat up, so while I’m waiting for the water to warm up, I collect the cold water and use it to water my plants. My plants get watered every day, no water’s wasted, and my shower is nice and hot!
My gardening tip – Talk to your plants, let them know how beautiful they are!
I’m confused about raffle copter. I have to submit a comment AND click the raffle copter button?
I’m wearing almay get up and grow mascara today.
Chocolate milk is always a yes! Infact, anything chocolate is always a yes.
Chocolate milk is a definite yes. Even better when made with Hershey’s dark chocolate syrup!!

Just spent my weekend traveling to 3 different states for a whirlwind grad party trip! Thank goodness I’m good at doing makeup touch ups in the car 🙂
I LOVE contouring and highlighting when I’m going somewhere special!

I LOVE chocolate milk especially with chocolate covered pretzels 🙂
I contour a little bit everyday. Nothing too crazy. But I rarely highlight… I get very shiny in about 2 hours and I feel that highlighting makes it worse. Am I wrong? Am I just using the wrong product?
I love to contour and highlight. Right now I’m using the IT Cosmetics palette. I was too late to buy the MAC Sculpting Powder ugggh. Oh well 🙂
I am obsessed with highlighting!!!!
I went to my hometown this weekend to celebrate my childhood dance teacher’s 45th anniversary of owning her own studio! So much fun, but I’m exhausted!

I’m very proud of the fact that I was chosen as a finalist for the Olay campaign for real women. I’m not a Canadian citizen so I was ineligible and that breaks my heart, but at 50 they thought I had the presence to be in their stores country wide representing Olay , not bad.
This Tuesday is my 23rd birthday! My husband is taking out for a day of shopping and out for lunch! Looking forward to it!
Chocolate almond milk!!
I do very lightly contour and highlight my face. I feel like adding these products will keep my face from looking flat after face makeup application (foundation, concealer or BB cream).
The most exhilarating thing I’ve ever done was get my first tattoo at a tattoo convention on my ribs. And chocolate milk is the bomb.com!
I went to the History Museum over the weekend
Tomatoes … blech. 😛
I’ve been so excited about trying different summer looks and makeup!
I am going to the zoo this weekend
I’m proud of finishing my dissertation and getting my doctorate.
Choco milk is a definite yes!
My current favorite talk shows are Ellen and Steve Harvey!
i had to go into work this morning… i think i deserve some shopping time now!
Excited for the world cup!
Happy birthday to a certain somebody tomorrow! 😉
I’d really like to know more about the Nars eyeshadows.
Happy Birthday Tabs!
I happen to be OBSESSED with highlighting and contouring. I just bought the Slenderizer brush from Tarte and am loving it for contouring. Blends perfectly!
Happy Birthday to a certain somebody tomorrow and everyone else who shares the birthday June 9!!!! 😀 The most exhilarating/stupid thing I’ve ever done was jump into the middle of the dark blue ocean while on a boat going to a cave in the Philippines. I love being in water, and it just looked so amazing, so I just went for it lol, the water felt great because it was also raining so it was warm (bad idea because of sharks, but they didn’t like my bathing suit probably LOL) 🙂
Yes to Chocolate ALMOND milk, I can’t handle the cow’s milk and soy is so processed and full of estrogen, yay for Chocolate Almond Milk!
Hi!! Gardening tip?! Ha ha! I’m a plant killer. So, no, I don’t have any tips. I’m most proud of my son. He’s 26 and has done so much with his life already. It’s awesome to watch. Chocolate milk? Yes!! I love it. Thank-you!!
I am having a fight with the bf… Hoping it endss really soon.. And I have never shopped at sephora #studentlife#nomoney#miseries.. I needs to win this card 😛
Chocolate milk is a “yes” though I never drink it!
I highlight and contour all the time. Even if I’m just using a bb/CC cream or tinted moisturizer. My favorite bronzer right now is MAC Aphrodite’s Shell and my fav highlighters are MAC Lightscapade and nars illuminator in 413 blkr. Love them!!!!
Love chocolate milk!!!!! I just don’t drink it very often. My favorite is darigold old fashioned.
My favorite talk show is Ellen’s! Thanks for the chance! 🙂
Highlight, yes. Contour, no. Chocolate milk, will never be a no.
zipling! I’m afraid of heights and it only took me 2 mins to finally hop off the ledge and zip across. once it was over I wanted to go again
Chocolate milk: no.
Yes, I love chocolate milk. I wish I could have a garden but unfortunately I have a brown thumb and can’t keep plants alive:(
I spent the whole weekend with family! On Saturday, my mom, her sisters, their families, and I all hauled our butts to the county fair. I absolutely HAD to have a corndog. We all drove up to Santa Rosa today, and had lunch with some more extended family for a mini-reunion at a Chinese buffet. We sat around eating and story-telling for about 3 or 4 hours. My mom and I also hit up a nursery on the way home, and I bought myself a calico monkey flower on a whim. Pretty dang adorable!
After seeing the pictures you posted of Petaluma, I’m pretty sure we’re going to have to hit up the Seed Bank the next time we’re in that neck of the woods!
well, my plans for this new week is working in the garden– I need to thin out the lettuce carrots and the radish for sure–theres one day by its self
Yes to chocolate milk and an even bigger yes to coffee milk!
Yay! Bill Watterson was back this week!
Cali weather has been torture! It’s been over 100 degrees and it will still be that temperature through the week. I think my makeup would melt off.
I am new to highlighting/contouring, but love the idea! Gives your face demention and can drastically change its shape!
Hi Karen! Speaking of green thumbs… I’m very proud of my raspberry bush…I’m seeing the fruits become redder and juicer day after day! I’m REALLY looking forward to eat them all!!! 🙂
I sometimes bother with highlighting and contouring, but usually I skip it because I’m lazy!
Went to my cousin’s wedding ystd and hell yeah to highlighting and contouring 😉 Also wore Melt Cosmetics’s Belladonna2, my new favourite red lippie
chocolate milk : YES!
We have gone from winter to summer basically with 93+ temps and humidity to go with it. This is when I need my make up tatood on my face!!
chocolate milk is ALWAYS a yes.
I have never learned the art of HAC. I would love to be a pro @ it but I just fail every time! =(
A definite yes to chocolate milk. 🙂
What are your plans this weekend? Blog blog blogging
Your #1 gardening tip? No idea, I don’t garden 🙁
Do you do highlighting and/or contouring with your makeup? Most times
Chocolate milk: yes or no? OF COURSE!

One of the most fun exhilarating things I ever did was fly a simulator in Singapore and go down the emergency slide at the training facility.
Im a fan of chocolate milk
Hi Karen! I just started to learn contouring and highlighting, it is fun! Except when I use too much powder 🙂 haha! I look like someone who fell into a bronzing bucket:)
Chocolate Milk is a Yes!!! 🙂
YES to chocolate milk! i can’t believe that is even a question LOL!
I have family visiting this weekend!
I love home grown tomatoes! But I guess my tip for gardening would be patience and research…lol All plants are different!

I prefer vanilla milk to chocolate milk – or a mix to make light chocolate.
I try to highlight, but no matter what I use I swear it always ends up highlighting my pores in a totally unflattering way! Ahahaha…
Chocolate Milk – yum yum. Well chocolate Lactaid.
Orange is the New Black ate my weekend.
Happy Birthday, Karen and Tabs!
Since it’s monday today : HAPPY BUDDAY TABBY!!!!
And about highlighting and/or contouring with my makeup? : I usually reach for sculpt from MAC but these days highlighting is a miss. I have such huge pores that they look like moon’s craters when I put anything shimmery. I wanted to love my MSF so much. but I guess I need to try it once more and if not, part with it….
Maybe this gift card will help me buy something sassy!

Chocolate milk oh yeahhhhhhhhhh!!! I’m not a caffeine drinker and have still retained my childhood habit of a glass of milk every morning, with something chocolaty like ovaltine 😛 I’m very much into highlighting and contouring. I use Hourglass ambient powders for highlighting and NARS for contouring although have to get my hands on the NARS contouring blush duos. And plz wish Tabs a very very happy birthday from me! I hope she has one hell of a meowwww time! Maybe she will bring me luck and the Sephora card on her special day 😉
I don’t know much about gardening! But my mom does!! I’m proud of being her daughter!
I couldn’t contour to save my life! LOL!
Really enjoyed using Becca SSP in Topaz this weekend!
I HEART CATS!!! haha
I just started a bit of contouring a couple of months ago; it’s fun to do except when I accidentally overdo and have to start over.
still trying to perfect my contouring 🙂
No chocolate milk lol!
Happy birthday! I love chocolate milk!!!
i hate chocolate milk! but i love chocolate! i’m weird like that.
Went picnicking and canoeing with BF to celebrate our anniversary 🙂
nay on the chocolate milk.
I would died if They ever stopped making Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz!!!
My weekend was just not long enough! ;p
Happy Birthday to Tabs!
I’ve never tried highlighting or contouring, although I’ve been really tempted, especially with highlighting.
Chocolate Milk is always a yes.
Chocolate milk: yes. Have you ever tried WHITE chocolate milk? I just tried some this weekend and it was deeelicious!

I pretty much always do a least a touch of contouring under my cheekbones (Too Faced Milk Chocolate, yum!). If I’m getting fancy, like I did this weekend for my BF’s birthday dinner, I’ll contour my nose and highlight my upper cheekbones. 🙂
i saw a silent film over the weekend! it was very fun and the actors were so cute and animated.
I’m really starting to get into contouring because I LOVE the chiseled effect it gives me. At first, it just made me look like i have a dirt spot on my face, but I’m getting better at applying the bronzer so that it’s actually doing something loool.
plans: sleep all day! 😀
Most exhilarating thing I’ve done? Horseback riding in the ocean in Jamaica. It felt like flying when my horse started to run.:-D
I LOVE highlighting and contouring. I do it pretty much whenever I know that I want to look extra special.
Chocolate milk? Oh, yes! Definitely yes. 😀
I love contouring and highlighting! I think everyone should learn how to do it.
I’ve been drinking 3L of water everyday & my skin is glowing!
Wanna know something weird? Chocolate milk reminds me of childhood vacations at the beach.
I am very proud of how far I have come within a year. I have changed for the better 🙂
Highlighting is my new obsession!! I haven’t gotten the hang of contouring yet but I keep working at it.
i love sephora!
This last weekend my plan was to do some housekeeping and go to the local art festival while enjoying the sun! I did both!
Thanks for the giveaway!
No to chocolate milk, yes to chocolate almond milk!
Chocolate milk please, haven’t had that in a long while!
So glad it’s summertime!
I wish I knew how to highlight/contour but i am pretty much clueless about makeup so it’s on the ‘to learn’ list!
as for the weekend, I just kept it low key as i was recovering from the flu. c’est la vie.
A very happy birthday to Tabs from myself and my kitty Prince Jacko Boy von Pufferpants Plumey le Matou!
“What’s the most exhilarating thing you’ve ever done?”
Hmm… I’d have to say that the current most exhilarating thing I’ve ever done is finally start applying to casting calls for acting and modeling – and I have a modeling audition tomorrow night! 🙂
Chocolate milk: always a yes!
Those NARS eyeshadows! I’m super excited about them. I know wetting eyeshadows to make them more vibrant isn’t a new concept but still I love the colors 😉
Chocolate milk : Yes ! Yes ! Yes !
