My Uncle Witold. He was sent to a Siberian work camp where he had to chop wood from sunrise to sunset. He cut his own finger off, hoping to get a chance to escape. But they made him march 15 miles to a doctor, who sewed his finger back on, march 15 miles back and resume chopping wood. He...
I've always wanted to see a comedic version of Sherlock Holmes with Rik Mayall as a greasy, nervous, bumbling Sherlock Holmes and Ade Edmonson as Watson (who would secretly be the brains behind Holmes). :)
I doesn't. I had a silk skirt that got a big water stain on in and dry cleaning did nothing for it. I finally just dunked the entire skirt in water and that did the trick.
A fabo vintage-styled suit for the larger ladies:

I ordered this suit from torrid and it is so much cuter in person than pictured! I've never liked to...
I just got a white pair of Jack Purcell's from the clearance rack at Marshall's ($9.99) not too long ago. You may want to check places like Marshall's and TJ Maxx. I like the Jack Purcell's style, but I'm not sure how I feel about wearing white sneakers. I feel like I'm wearing two big neon...
The last time someone made a snarky comment about why I was so "dressed up," I promptly responded by asking when they were planning on going to the gym. (The person in question was wearing one of those velour track suits to eat dinner in a restaurant!)
Don't let it get you down, I find the...
Most naval uniforms have reasons for their designs. Sailor pants are bell bottomed for a few different reasons - they could be rolled up easier when a sailor is washing decks or working around water. Also, waves often wash up on deck and the bottom of your pants will get wet. The bell bottom...
I love to smoke from shishas. I don't have one of my own but there are coffee shops around town where you can smoke them. I find them to be very relaxing. My favorite tobacco is a green apple/black licorice flavor blend.
It works like a charm, but I would recommend slipping the tube into your purse if you're going to be in the sun for a whole day, etc. You may need to re-apply. I'd say one application lasted an entire 8-hr. work day (and I walk to a trolley stop and ride public un-airconditioned public...
Monistat also makes an anti-chafing gel that dries to a nice cool powder finish, that I swear by. A little on the thighs and you don't have to worry about them chafing anymore.
I miss those days of TCM - they used to play really great movies from the 30s during the day and I would videotape them to watch while I was at work. Now their programming reads just like a AFI top ten list with all the standard predictable "classics."
P.S. - Aftetr I typed my original message...
I've noticed that TCM plays a lot less variety in their movies as well. They used to play more movies that were "off the beaten path." Now it seems they have their standard classics and stick to playing them over and over again. I can only watch Singin' In the Rain so many times! :mad:
Love the hair Zaika! We have very similar hair. But mine never looks that nice in the summer heat (humidity makes my hair super big), so I usually pull it back in combs. I am jealous (also jealous of that cute blouse you are wearing!)
When hubby & I vacationed in Bermuda, we were exploring a secluded beach/lagoon that was surrounded by rock cliffs. As a goof, and thinking we were alone, I pulled up the back of my bathing suit like a g-string and flashed hubby my bum. I looked up and there was a whole group of tourists...
I mostly use MAC cosmetics, but have been meaning to try something from tarte:

Has anyone tried their cosmetics?
I use MAC Studio foundation, because it's the only foundation I can find that matches my fair skin. A lot of other so-called fair...
