A Ghoulish Garnish

CarrieLeave a comment

Today, I finally got the chance to decorate the house for Halloween.  It was time to put away the beach decor and begin the pumpkin primping.  I have a collection of decorations that have been passed down to me and those that I have bought myself.  The eclectic mix makes for a good start.  Over the years, I intend to add a decoration or two more to trim the house.  My favorite decorations so far are the ceramic witch and haunted house that light up.  They were made by my mom when she was younger at a ceramic studio.  They are irreplaceable and it is something that is a timeless piece that I will be able to pass down to my children.  I also like the Bethlehem lighting pieces from QVC.  The wreath and the garland are from this company and they are not only beautiful on their own but when they are lit at night it provides a great ambience for any occasion.  Happy October everyone!

QVC Splurge on Tarte Cosmetics

At 11 the other night, I got sucked into the Tarte hour on QVC.  By the end of the show I had splurged on three of their wonderful products.  Their new Amazonian clay product line goes on smooth and lasts for a while.  Use the link above to familiarize yourself with their line of products.  Here are some of my favorites from Tarte cosmetics.

Amazonian Clay Eyeliner

Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow

Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow

Maracuja Cheek Tint

Shop on QVC because they often offer a lot of great prices and specials.  I got the neutral eyes eye shadow palette seen below with an eyeliner and a lipsurgence pencil for less of the cost of the palette alone on tartecosmetics.com.  I’m a QVCer for life.

There’s a Ninja in the Kitchen

I must say that I am always flipping to QVC when there are commercial breaks.  One of my favorite shows to watch on QVC is In the Kitchen with David (I admit I am a fan on Facebook).  David Venable is the host and he is on every Sunday afternoon and every Wednesday night.  I love watching the demonstrations on QVC, especially with my mom because we can always get a good laugh at the over-exaggerated demos that David and his guest give.  I always got a kick out of the Ninja blender demo in particular because David tries to convince people that it is a gazillion appliances in one tiny machine.  A few examples that they give are cookie dough maker, ice cream maker, and food processor.  While I can understand the food processor, I’m a little unsure of the first two that I listed.  Let’s just say that my prayers have been answered and I no longer have to wonder.  My mom got sucked into David’s seductive ways and decided to buy a Ninja blender for me.

Here’s what I can tell you after using the Ninja for two days now.  I simple love it!  If you decide to purchase one appliance in the near future it should be the Ninja.  QVC has the best prices on most items that they sell.  My mom got me the 40 oz. model that has the two travel drink cups that are included.  That is the best part about that machine because it is the ultimate Magic Bullet.  I plan on making a smoothie everyday before work for my breakfast on the go.  What a great way to start the day!

I could go on and on about this product but fortunately for you (and me) I have a St. Patrick’s Day block party to get to.  Check the Ninja blender out.  You can watch the demo yourself!
