I love them!! I usually send for something new to try as an experiment. If I don't love it I just chalk it up to more things not to bother with!! This time it is going to be Clinique's High Lengths Mascara. Claims are "Wider, fully energized" eyes and a cool brush that finds the tiniest lashes. We shall see. I've tried most mascaras at least once. Some are crap. Most are OK and about the same. A few are actually not to bad.....I'll let you know after my research is finished. I am the lab!! Until we meet again...............<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4056009754742110471-835979819185213115?l=stuff-we-love.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THING 1 and THING 2http://www.blogger.com/profile/09754473595696163259noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056009754742110471.post-52118887339551185742010-02-12T14:50:00.000-08:002010-02-12T15:06:31.063-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fkhgc42-Mxo/S3Xbhyj8VfI/AAAAAAAAABg/KsonXIygKuc/s1600-h/thumbnail.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 160px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 160px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437493498674435570" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_fkhgc42-Mxo/S3Xbhyj8VfI/AAAAAAAAABg/KsonXIygKuc/s320/thumbnail.jpg" /></a><br /><div>I Love the balm's "BALMS AWAY" eye make-up remover!!!</div><div> </div><div>I've been using Clinique's eye make-up remover for years. The purple one that you have to shake up before using. It works well enough that you don't have to rub or tug very hard. Your eyes don't appreciate a rough ride! If a little got close to my actual eyeball sometimes I'd end up with a nasty case of Red Eye. Needless to say I've been looking for another one that is as easy to use but doesn't get in my eyes. I am LOVING BALMS AWAY (by the BALM)! It goes on without getting anywhere you don't want it and I just wipe it away with a warm washcloth as I'm washing my face. It's awesome! It is my new favorite and I've pretty much tried 'em all!</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4056009754742110471-5211888733955118574?l=stuff-we-love.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THING 1 and THING 2http://www.blogger.com/profile/09754473595696163259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056009754742110471.post-33680413805999471172010-02-08T16:07:00.000-08:002010-02-08T21:45:51.126-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://reneeashleybaker.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/audrey-hepburn-breakfast-at-tiffanys.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 250px; height: 300px;" src="http://reneeashleybaker.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/audrey-hepburn-breakfast-at-tiffanys.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Hola! Happy Monday! This is THING 2, reporting live from the couch. Such excitement!<div>Today's Stuff We Love topic is about an amazing movie that I just watched for the very first time...</div><div><br /></div><div><i>Breakfast at Tiffany's!</i></div><div><i><br /></i></div><div>It's so great... Holly Golightly's crazy-awesome 60's outifts, the cat, and (Aww!) Holly and Paul/Fred are the cutest couple ever!</div><div><br /></div><div>If you haven't seen this already... it's a must see. And I'm really loving Holly's bathtub/couch! I might have to get one of those myself!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Just another form of media that's both making it necessary for me to someday live in New York, and also making me wish that I grew up in the 50s/60s. Any other time period, really... 80s, 20s, I'm not picky! :)</div><div><br /></div><div>Anyways, such a cute movie. Love love.</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#FF99FF;">I LOVE BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S!!!!</span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4056009754742110471-3368041380599947117?l=stuff-we-love.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THING 1 and THING 2http://www.blogger.com/profile/09754473595696163259noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056009754742110471.post-57363328163516335512010-02-04T19:14:00.000-08:002010-02-08T16:27:29.053-08:00<div><div><br /></div><div>Yes, yes, I do acknowledge that this is the 3rd post in one day, (although only the second by yours truly, THING 2) but bear with me. This Applebee's trip is... noteworthy.</div><div><br /></div><div>So, we walk into Applebee's.

But crazy THING 1 and her shenanigans just HAS to tease the old lady into thinking that I am. Glasses, lady! They're a great invention! </div><div><br /></div><div>And JUST as we're about to be seated in the bar.... sake bombs, anyone? My mom speaks up and does what's right... and we're placed in a booth on the other end of the restaurant.</div><div><br /></div><div>Oh, well... maybe next time! ;) </div><div>(Ok seriously, mom, that last part was a joke.

Hula Hooping for Health! Hula hooping is a lot of fun and a great work out. I just learned to do the lasso, a.k.a. THE VORTEX! Super Freaky Cool! I can't do any upper body stuff yet because I had a lumpectomy a while ago. Pretty soon though. Make your own hoop with tubing and psychedelic tape. A great way to let your wild and crazy creative side express itself!!<br /><br />Now go HOOP!<br />We lluv that stuff!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4056009754742110471-3249776295740841297?l=stuff-we-love.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>THING 1 and THING 2http://www.blogger.com/profile/09754473595696163259noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056009754742110471.post-61280935879907023882010-02-04T15:29:00.000-08:002010-02-08T16:29:22.206-08:00 <div>Hello to anyone who reads this, you internet-goers you.
