What Are You Reading
About halfway through Tess of the D'Ubervilles. Heartbreaking, infuriating - I can't wait to see what happens to Tess. Just a brilliant book.- Avalon

What are you cooking for Christmas - your traditional foods?
23Skiddoo, my family too! Years ago, when Nanny was alive and the whole family lived in one place, we'd do all the different fishes: scungili, mussels, flounder, shrimp, you name it...nowadays we just do the flounder and fried shrimp. Oh, and linguini with clam sauce. All homemade, all mmmmm! ;)- Avalon

Has anyone found a good red lipstick that does not smudge???
That's what makes their new matte line so nice! None of that greasy ickyness they tend to have. (Also, it doesn't smell like plastic - every Revlon lippy I've ever tried usually does.) -

What powder, foundation..
For powder, I second Inky's suggestion of the Airspun. For foundation...I'm actually really interested in these comments because I think it's time for a new one myself! :p -
My Mother Says...
My mother has never been anything but supportive, even when I was going through my flannel-ridden grunge phase. lol She loves the vintage look though - even though I don't do it 100% she really likes the little touches and accoutrements. I am very, very lucky. :) -
Excuse me Miss, do you Blog?
Why did you start your blog? I wanted to channel my love for silent films (and the 1920s in general) into something creative - and since I've written poetry as long as I could remember, it was the perfect choice. Someday I'd love to turn it into a coffee table book. ;) How did you...- Avalon

Favorite Non Red Lipstick Shades
I am seriously addicted to Revlon's new matte line. When not wearing my usual "Really Red", I go with "Strawberry Suede" (a pretty hot pink) or "Wine Not" (a dark aubergine). On the weekends though, it's usually my Dr Pepper Lip Smacker. lol -
Quirky things that people have done 'in the day' that people would gasp at today..
One of my best playmates was the little girl who lived next door to my grandparents. She'd come over when she saw Grandpa working in the garage, and he'd give her a sip of his beer. lol- Avalon

Was Your Hometown Retro?
Copiague is still held with as much "respect" *cough* as it used to be. Sorry, John. :rolleyes: Karl Ehmer closed up shop a couple of years ago, but it's still a deli - called "Joe's Italian Deli" now. It's pricey but from what I hear, pretty good. Sadly, a lot of the shops on Wellwood...- Avalon

Hey, Zemke, thanks for the advice! Right now I'm attempting some work for a children's magazine, and going the "what they'd like to hear" route. ;)- Avalon
