You already know that I am a big fan of City Beauty, and that I have certain City Beauty products that I have been buying myself (in some cases for years!) because they work so well for me. This year, I had decided that after telling one of my friends about City Lips for …
Winter is on its way! We’re expecting a blizzard starting any minute now. We could possibly get up to 20 inches of snow! I can’t say that I would enjoy that. Right now, I’ve got my fingers crossed that I don’t lose my electricity. So I am rushing through my post about this week’s edition …
This year, I didn’t get to see Daphne from Nature Island Botanicals at her outdoor booth in Stagefort Park overlooking the Atlantic Ocean at the summer Waterfront Festival in Gloucester MA.
