Prune No.14

say hello to my new best friend.

my very FIRST real lipstick. 

i don't wear a lot of makeup. in fact if you know me you probably can't even tell. i've always liked a clean look. people that paint their face gross me out. but buying nice makeup is really fun. i blame my friend kimmy. of course the product itself is wonderful, but the packaging is the best part. for me it started with the YSL mascara, which i absolutely love and has the best fragrance. and now here i am with a lipstick, a color i truly love and can't wait to wear regularly. 

my weekend

last night i made the first recipe from my new cookbook. 

oh my god. it was so perfect. 

like real deal asian food.

chicken stir fry

making things from scratch vs. buying sauces

makes a huge difference. 

and since i was feeling so accomplished last night, 

i made breakfast this morning. 

nothing crazy.

just cinnamon & honey pancakes with blueberries and bacon.

it feels so nice to have a new hobby. 

this is what makes me happy. 

especially the cooking for other people part.

i wish every night was a dinner party. 

i wish i had someone to make breakfast for.
