The subject of this post sounds boring. The taste of the food is anything but.
Since it's just me at home ( most of the time) I eat convenience foods quite a bit. Canned tuna is usually in my cupboard.
Starkist Selects Yellowfin Marinated Tuna - Lemon Dill and Olive Oil is great. I was leery about how it would taste with the herbs and flavoring. I usually season my tuna anyway so it was nice to crack open the can and have a moist and flavorful taste. Tuna is a great source of protein for us. It's low in fat ( it may be fat free) and it's a quick and easy snack or meal, depending how you eat it. The USDA says to alternate between light and Albacore because the larger the fish, the more mercury it has ingested. I like it all.

I forgot ...Bare Minerals part II
Crap. I dont know what the deal is with the first one. Its suppose to be a shot of the cover. Maybe once you see it it will give you an option to transform , hahahaha.
Bare Minerals (!)
I'm pretty pumped about this consumer product I will discuss tonight.
I am sure I have mentioned the make-up Bare Minerals before.....right? I'm sure I have, I'd be shocked if not.This make-up changed my "life" ( not really but you know what I mean ) . I had been your typical foundation wearer since I was 13 years old and began wearing make-up ( dang that's too young!) . At a certain point in a Woman's life, the skin starts to sag a tiny bit, it will reveal some tiny cracks and oddities we aren't used to and frankly want to disappear! My point- your skin doesn't look as smoothed and plumped as it did when you were in your 20's. ahhh....the 20s.......Anyway, my friend pointed out to me that my foundation looked cakey. We were in Sephora so she said, try an application of my make-up, Bare Minerals. I knew she wore it and loved it. I just had such a hard time letting go the good 'ol compact powder and bottle of foundation I had relied on for so many years. I tested it out. It took a whole day and then another application ( done by yours truly) for me to get used to it. Well, I got REAL used to it. Fell in love with this product. It's all natural and gives your skin coverage , but in a natural way. How it works is really amazing and a miracle all rolled into one. I This line of cosmetics has changed the game of the customary, tried and true foundations that have been with us forever. Huh? A foundation in powder form? No way. That's what I said! I wear the Primer, use the bronzer as my blush and my newest fave from the line is as a matter of fact- Foundation. When I started the Bare Minerals "journey" I bought the foundation in a loose form. The company recently developed The Bare Minerals READY SPF20 Foundation. I just read that from the back of my compact. Yes- it's a compact form.The sleek design fits nicely in your cute make-up bag. It's a win-win , they added more moisturizers ( oops, didn't research that , sorry) as well as increased the SPF Protection to 20. AAAAnd, the sales girl at Ulta introduced me to THE best make-up brush I have owned. It's dense and has a slanted end. It's for applying heavier, matte foundation. I prefer this look so I bought one. I figured gimme a break, how is this 38 dollar weird looking brush going to expertly apply my foundation. It did!! Just a swipe on the foundation and buff it on. That's how the sales girl instructed me. Just buff , buff.I like B.M. because it has the SPF and is oil free. It just feels good on too, you know? I don't feel like I have make-up on but when I look into the mirror I see a made up face that has smooth looking skin and no " heavy, cakey look. Voila! Ladies you have to promise me you will try it. Hey- even if you have never been a big foundation girl, just try it out. I want to hear what you have to say. You can visit the Bare Minerals store for samples go to Ulta, Sephora and other fine retailers. I believe Nordstrom carries it.
That was a long one. I hope to write two more times before I leave for Holiday next week and that you enjoyed reading and learning abut this Great Make-Up. Peace and Love

Peter Thomas Roth
Good Afternoon and Happy Holidays,
I've recently discovered a Fabulous lotion. It's by Peter Thomas Roth Clinical Skin Care. It's called the Mega Rich Body Lotion.
It's got vitamins C, E, and B5. It smells very good and leaves you skin feeling silky, not greasy. Oddly enough , two hotels I stayed in this year has his line for their toiletry products. I found this to be a very nice touch considering this brand is High-End and sold at certain retailers other than a Walgreens or CVS. I keep a tube on my desk at work and use it every day.
It's the time of year to lather up so grab some P.T.R. !
