"Life in abundance comes only through great love."
-- Elbert Green Hubbard (June 19, 1856 – May 7, 1915) was an American writer, publisher, artist, and philosopher. |
45 is the number of letters in the longest word in Webster's Third New International Dictionary, Unabridged: pneumonoultra-microscopicsilico-volcanoconiosis, a disease of the lungs caused by inhaling very fine irritant particles.
While we're at it, happy late birthday (sorry we forgot!) to Noah Webster, father of the first American dictionary, who was born on October 16, 1758. Truly a man of his word. |

CHANEL Joues Contraste Powder Blush |
|
|
|
Of all the blush I use by CHANEL, my favorite is the Joues Contraste. It combines both glamour and softness with sophistication that allows me to shape my face by emphasizing contours. I really like that it doesn't mat up or become cake-y and it stays on all day, even while working out. It leaves my cheek bones well defined, with a hint of sparkle and class. From my recent trip to the CHANEL counter, the beauty advisor gave me tips on how to highlight my face by using three different blushes. Right now I use Fantasia as my base colour, then I highlight the very top part of my cheekbones with Narcisse for glammed definition, and then I top my whole cheek area with Be-Bop (Irréelle Blush), for that perfect touch of shimmer. Result: STUNNING! ( Each blush is only $42.00!) A deal no girl can resist!

CHANEL Précision Activateur Tendre |

Because of the rosy aromatic scent, I love to apply this toner whenever I have early morning projects and have to rise before the sun does. The enticing scent adds a jolt of exhilaration and spark of excitement to get me out of bed and into my morning regimen. Each experience of using this toner is like finding a new hobby, because I find so many different areas of my body to apply it. Whenever I'm in a hurry and/or cannot decide on the perfect fragrance of the day, I simply grab my Chanel alcohol-free soothing toner, sprinkle a bit onto my finger tips, and dab around the back of my ears. It gives off a refreshingly clean Princess smell that is simply irresistible! And, of course, because the toner is pink, it goes under my list of Princess Must-Haves. I never forget to take it along with me to "re-splash" and refresh throughout my day. Besides, for only $45.00 a bottle, no girl should ever pass up the color pink!

Unneeded and Unnecessary Baggage
I just moved into my new home over the weekend. And, the most tiring of the whole move was getting rid of all my unnecessary junk. Who would’ve thought that dumping my garbage would be so much work? Why was cleaning out my closet the most draining experience? I am overwhelmed with how much lighter and happier I feel. I’m even more amazed at how much junk I had to throw away. I feel like I’m living…

The Archer of Miracles
We left the harsh month of judgment, and have now entered the marvelous month of miracles. Most people define “miracle” as an outlandish and outstanding occurrence outside of nature; something unnatural and supernatural. But, what exactly is a miracle?
Someone may go to work today and exclaim, “Wow, I just saw a really horrific car accident on the way to work. The car was smashed so bad that it was curled up into a ball like aluminum foil. …
