Full is not heavy as empty....

I've always loved that lyric from Fiona Apple. "Full is not heavy as empty" This is so true. Just think how heavy things feel when they are empty.

And so it begins

I finally have a blog. I've been putting this off for about a year, because I thought I was too busy to keep a blog. But with all of the time I spend updating my facebook, that was just a poor excuse. So here I am. I will be sharing my thoughts on everything in my life. You can count on book, movie and food reviews...

I'm going to go from pale to bright - just because I feel like it. #1       First I tried City Colors Creamy Lip Stain in Flirtini. The color was subtle and a little paler than I usually like. It wasn't as creamy as I was expecting and had a more velvety feel. There is a slight rose scent, which I was really not a fan of. After a little while, I blotted to see if this "stain" had any staying power and it came right off.       I wouldn't buy this color for myself,  but it will go into my make-up stash at home in case I find occasion for it. maybe for a job interview or something?     #2     Next up was NYX Butter Lipstick in Little Susie (BLS12...
