I should probably start working on my facial expressions now
Although the three months that The Boss and I spend apart were challenging at times, I have to say that the one good thing that came from that period was that I was able to get back into my normal, healthy eating habits. Living with a boy is tough on a girl’s hips, you know. [...]
California’s diverse landscape is now on my face
UPDATE: Turns out it wasn’t Melasma, it was actually a little heat rash. A little time spend indoors, and some soothing cream (I used this) did the trick, and now it’s gone! The other night as I was washing my face getting ready for bed, I noticed that there were some rough, bumpy patches of [...]
Recycled Newspaper Baskets
On Sunday, The Boss and I went to Pier 1 Imports looking for small baskets that we could use for storage, specifically for under the sink in our bathroom.

But I’m guessing he’s someone who lives close by, and was dumb nice enough to leave his Internet connection unsecured so [...]
This post is so long, if I Were You, I Probably Wouldn’t Read it.
When The Boss and I got engaged, I knew that I was going to wear hijab on my wedding day as opposed to a more commonly taken route among Muslim couples, where a segregated wedding (men and women in separate halls) allows brides to dress as they please since the not-closely-related male relatives and male [...]
Foot Care from The Body Shop
I’ve never really had problems with dry skin, but recently, my feet have been about as soft and tender as burlap potato sacks. I’ve always used the same lotion on my feet that I use for my body, but over the past three or so months, with all this moody weather, it doesn’t seem to [...]
