Face timing with Sister

Yes. This is what we do. 

And this:

Scary Story!!

True story!

My car was parked outside because I had to unload groceries. After we were done I just left it out there thinking I'd pull it in to the garage later.  That night I pull it in (incidentally spent about 5 minutes trying to back it in to the garage and giving up in frustration - thanks complete inability to reverse even with back up cameras) and as I was easing into the garage what do you think I see? One of those big ass flying cockroaches scurrying up my windshield. What can I do?!? I'm stuck now- if I open the car door it's going to attack. I just know it is going to swoop down and get in my hair. Nope. I'm not getting out of the car. I live here now.  

I look around for my phone- Drat!? It is in the house. I'm trapped forever. I can't even call the hubs to rescue me. I know he is just waiting for me.  Ah ha! Car Bluetooth is connected! So I call the hubs. Come rescue me! So he comes to the garage and checks the perimeter. Safe! 

I still jump out of the car and run inside. I'm not taking any chances. 

Easter madness

Ah Easter, the sweet sweet candy goodness. My word was it delicious. We had a glorious time being with family and once again eating. This year I tried something new and made a Neiman Marcus Butter Cake. May I say, freaking amazing? It's like a chess pie in a cake. It was also pretty easy. https://www.google.com/amp/www.food.com/amp/recipe/neiman-marcus-butter-cake-42069

It's very very rich so one piece will do you. 

Daddy was victorious this year for the adult egg hunt. Did I mention he cheats? That old man likes to hit your basket so the eggs fall out and then he picks them up. It's pretty hilarious. 

I think Adult egg hunt is the greatest. After the kids hunt they hide the eggs and watch all of us old people run around. It's pretty competitive- and fun! Makes you feel like a kid again. 

Happy Easter to you and yours!

Eric running for some eggs- he dressed himself so nice for the occasion. 

Book Review: Witches Be Crazy

This is probably the funniest book I have read in a long time. Dungar, the hero of the story, sets off on a quest to assasinate the poser queen. He meets Jiminimy along the way, a joyful, annoying character who has an interesting talent. Pirates, wizardry, and mayhem ensue. 

The author really does a fantastic job incorporating some cultural aspects of today into his world of fantasy. It's absolutely fantastic. 

10/10 would highly recommend.

Today's bit of philosophy: thanks random at Walmart.

Today I ran to purchase the various candies and goodies for the boys' Easter baskets. While I was contemplating mini Reese's cups versus the Twix eggs, this random woman comes up to me and says, "Eater has become too commercial and we have just let it happen!" 

This was a clear case of ummmmm are you talking to me? Because I'm just sitting here enjoying the vast commercialism that is Cadbury Creme Eggs.  Why, Random Woman, did you choose to impart this special bit of wisdom on to me? Was it the unicorn leggings? Because I am NOT the sympathetic ear you are looking for. Move along now, carry on.  I enjoy Easter baskets and candy goodness- heaven help us all if I actually have to Pinterest/handmake anything because I am NOT that kind of mom. The Easter bunny would be reduce to a bunch of pictures from the Internet as an explanation of what could have been and a bunch of cash for consolation prizes. 

Tarte: Swamp Girl Pallette

I may have mentioned before that I love love love Tarte brand cosmetics.  One of my recent purchases is the Swamp Girl pallet. It's really pretty and has become one of my go tos. 

Look at those colors! You know what is awesome about Tarte? The pallettes usually include instructions for a day look and a night one! That is amazing. 

Here is the finished product- I did the Day look

The only change I made is that I used Mancat as the top eyeliner.

Tarte: Believe Palette. Aka unicorn magic!

I love love love love Tarte. Their make up is fantastic. Recently they came out with this new eyeshadow palette- oh the unicorns and fairy dust. I am straight up in love. It is so fun! Look at the box!!

Pretty! I'll make believe in my self! I'm a unicorn/mermaid princess. 

Look at these colors!

The middle is a highlighting powder. These are pretty decent pigment wise- the purple actually looks like purple and doesn't turn grey. 

I love the way it shimmers. Very nice! 10/10 would recommend. 

I am also wearing the Rose Gold Eyeliner from the same line.
