Hair Care Update!

Friends, I was inspired by the most recent issue of InStyle Magazine to promote beauty products to those near and dear to me. Unlike InStyle, I don't get any $$ from promoting said products, so really take this seriously because there's nothing in it for me other than the joy of you all experiencing hair bliss along with me! You MUST MUST MUST try Root Awakening shampoo and conditioner from John Frieda. It's on sale at Target this week! It smells AMAZING - like minty Aveda but still with floral stuff so it's not tooo herbal (Aveda is too much for me, I don't like smelling like I just rolled around in the Barefoot Contessa's backyard, though I would love to do that...) and it truly works wonders. My hair is wayy less frizzy even though it got really windblown during my death walk to the metro this morning and it feels softer than it has in months of using Infusium 23 Moisturologie. Of course I am still secretly craving Kerastase, but since I can't really justify spending $40 on shampoo, I will still with JF for now. Try it!

Fergie as Daisy Mae?

Look At These Fancies!

Guys, I just discovered this site.

If these cupcake recipes turn out half as delicious as they look...

And, there are cookie and savory recipes as well!!!

Gwyneth Paltrow was just on our show and she was talking about her blog GOOP. I'm sure you're all familiar--- It's the one where she tells us peasants how to do insane juice fasts and such. This cupcake post is me sticking it to Gwyneth.

blow your mind.

A PAD THAI CHRISTMAS

Yes, it is too early to be thinking about Christmas. HOPEFULLY I see you all before that. BUT I just wanted to let you know what I am getting very good at making cheap authentic Thai food. And I want to make you all Real Thai People Pad Thai. I was going to put a picture of it, but instead, here is one of my restaurant.

Maybe I can make it for you all in DC!!!

Most importantly, why am I the only person who posts anything....
