I've always been faithful to my Earth sign traits; very much a down-to-earth person and no to mention an avid lover of Earth tones in general! This past Thanksgiving weekend I stuck to my browns and golds with slight appearances of color here and there. I wore this look on Turkey Day and kept it basic with just a white t-shirt and some blue jeans.

So while finding the runway photos on style.com for the Pure Gold post, I realised that the gold eye shadow look that has been in my mind wasn't really the Bottega Veneta S/S08 look but it was the very different Versace S/S08 look: the smokey eyes. For a light smokey eye, go for the Zac Posen S/S08 way. You can see that there's obviously yellowish-gold eye shadow in the inner corners and on the b

Never passe, smokey eye makeup has been a staple classic for awhile now.But wait a minute, it didn't just come about this decade.HistorySome say that it has been around for ages in what is known as kohl makeup with origins from the Indian culture and far back into the Bronze age.It was already used in the early 90s period.And most probably it made its way into the mainstream having been fueled by cosmetics companies' fat ad budgets in magazine spreads and influencing hot girls (opinion leaders) and stylists altogether.Top: Cindy Crawford in her heydays in the 90s.I wouldn't call it a revival of the past, as I do believe, that sometimes the mainstream does take its time in adopting a trend.Whatever it is, its certainly a good thing (unlike those red skinnies which could have really been don

Annie is a super friendly and smart little girl, who has enough gait to suit the most discriminating trailrider. Her sweet personality is enough to win over just about anyone. She displays both a foxtrot and running walk, and simply adores attention from people.
Annie has been handled since birth with much affection and kindness, but has not been made a spoiled pet. She is trained to lead, tie, crosstie, stand for farrier, and to walk on a hot walker. She is comfortable with being handled and touched all over. No bite or kick in her nature. Price subject to increase with training and time. Her low price is not due to lack of quality, but rather to an over abundance of horses combined with a shortage of hay. Annie has had her foal shots and is UTD on vaccinations and deworming. several videos are available, please email for them.

An editorial in the Financial Times cuts right to the core of the campaign for a European referendum:According to opponents, the new treaty marks another giant stride towards a European superstate. This is fantasy. There is no provision for grand projects such as the single market, monetary union or a common foreign and security policy as set out in the Single European Act or the Maastricht treaty – neither of which attracted a referendum...The reality is that Europe has become a continent of several speeds. A Union of 27 members is, after all, hardly capable of marching in lock-step. Those calling for a referendum, including the opposition Conservatives, claim they are acting on principle. But their ultimate goal is either withdrawal or a do-nothing Union. Neither serves the national interest.As I have argued before, claims of a principled call for a referendum are a facade. Eurosceptics have simply seized upon a ill-advised commitment by the former Prime Minister and are using it t

While I really like the idea of having posts saved as a draft for later posting, I've found that if I wait too long, my memory of the dish isn't as useful. Arrgh! :)
What I do remember is this: I made this sauce at the same time I was making the tomatillo rice for the barbacoa dinner (similar ingredients and all). And as you can see from the photo and recipe, I used salmon instead of trout,
The Alabama preacher said to his Congregation, "Someone in this congregation has spread a rumor that I belong to the Ku Klux Klan. This is a horrible lie and one which a Christian community cannot tolerate. I am embarrassed and do not intend to accept this. Now, I want the party who did this to stand and ask forgiveness from God and this Christian family."No one moved.The preacher continued, "Do you have the nerve to face me and admit this is a falsehood? Remember, you will be forgiven and in your heart you will feel glory. Now stand and confess your transgression."Again all was quiet.Then slowly, a drop-dead gorgeous blonde with a body that would stop traffic rose from the third pew. Her head was bowed and her voice quivered as she spoke, "Reverend there has been a terrible misunderstanding. I never said you were a member of the Ku Klux Klan. I simply told a couple of my friends you were a wizard under the sheets."The preacher fainted, and the congregation roared.
Runway: Hollywood's batting an eye at the latest makeup trend. Smoking is allowed—at least on the red carpet—when it comes to sexy shadow.Reality: Brush a sheer, shimmery bronze or gray pressed powder shadow from lashline to the crease of your lid. Then rim the lower lashline for added drama that encompasses your entire eye. For added intensity, sweep a light wash of color from lids to brows. Be sure the formula is sheer and shimmery to avoid looking too theatrical.Source
This past weekend was warm, summerlike and slightly hazy. Today, however, was more April-like, cooler with some wind and rain began to fall in the afternoon which was really good; we’re awfully dry here in MN. I love how the rain smells on the ground, so fresh and intoxicating. I have finished clearing out my perennial garden and spent some time today moving around the volunteers that tend to pop up every Spring.
It was a soup day, for sure. And I have been interested in making this soup for a while. Thankfully I had all the ingredients and didn’t need a trip out anywhere. It was a simple base of vegetables; shallot, celery and a poblano pepper, with lots of garlic. Once those are sauteed good and tender, you add in one or two chipotle chilies in adobo that are finely minced (or more if ya love ‘em). Talk about a heavenly smelling mirepoix!
I dusted the chicken with cumin and chili powder and sauteed that right alongside the veggies, cooking it to a rich brown but le
