A Midsummer Night's Dream (Summer 2014 Secret Santa) Discussion

[kawaiisofoxy]

It's Saturday night and I'm home with no plans!  (as usual, the glamorous Mommy Life, y'all!)

DID SOMEONE SAY MASK PARTY!?? WHO'S WITH ME!?

Also, three cheers to me for figuring out how to resize photos on Photobucket!  :king:

ETA:  Tonight's mask brought to you courtesy of @@meaganola - she sent a Michael Todd Pumpkin mask in the Modmother Exchange, so I dug out my old tube to use up!!!  I was using it regularly for awhile, then got a new tube of Origins Charcoal and well... new pretties and all that.  Also, this mask does make my skin SERIOUSLY tingle!  I was feelin' the burn, but now my skin is SO SOFT!

Ooh, I want to join in with a charcoal/mud mask (whoops, originally typed that as "musk"), but it's so hot that it would never dry.  I would just sweat it off!  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I think I'm going to go take a nice cool shower, watch something on Netflix while I do my nails (Rainbow Honey Deep Heart Sea over Zoya Pinta sounds like a good plan), and work on my Maze of Games book this evening.

I'm in for a mask party as soon as I eat dinner.  The baby turns into a little hulk in my tummy if I don't eat on time.  :lick: So this green guy isn't hulk but I think I like him better.  

I love the shirt you are wearing in your mask pic @ !!

Thanks!!  I found a company really close to me that makes mineral glosses for lip and eye.  I think I'm going to get their sample set.

I haaaate baked mac and cheese! (Well, unless it's the boxed processed crap that stays creamy, but just has that crumb topping.)Stovetop all the way, for me!

 

[tweakabell]

Aw I love it with the baked cheese crust on top but I like the creaminess of stove top stovetop and then fry cheese on top lmao

I haven't but just looked it up there's one in roseville. Might have to take Hubby, definitely his kind of food!

I actually like the Homestyles, surprisingly enough! But I rarely buy them. Then again, I'm one of those weirdos who only eats things like mac and cheese and potatoes when I have a very specific craving. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Oh totally me too. Mac and cheese is a very specific craving that only hits once in a while. I actually don't think I like it? I'll crave Mac and cheese and order it when I'm at a restaurant and it never hits the spot... I think when I crave Mac and cheese I really want easy mac or just regular ol craft!

Tonight's Mac and Cheese was a success according to the boyfriend. It was a bit too rich for me (lol see?) but still really good. I followed the pioneer woman's recipe but definitely didnt put the whole pound she was requiring!

Oh WOW I had no clue they opened so manyy locations ! I remember going to the original location (on Fruitridge) and boy... That place really lives up to it's name. Definitely a tiny, tiny space with huge burgers. I think they moved to the Power Inn location maybe 5 years ago, it must've been right before I left for college. I think they put the original location's building inside the new location.

Baked with crawfish and andouille sausage. Now that's some good eating!

Made baked Mac and cheese from scratch last night. It was delish, especially on day 2

I will take mac and cheese in any way lol. We have a place here called cheeseology. They put the stuff in a cast iron pan and bake it with different toppings,  themed such as "the hill" for Italian and so on. Sooooo good. Makes me wonder if I should buy the creamy boxed ones and pop them in the oven with some crumbles after they are cooked. Can you tell I am ready to go and eat lunch? lol
