Should be fun.<BR/>You're right: I have a problem with Tocca perfumes, but it's more a skin chemistry issue than a nose thing. They just hate me and turn evil when I try them on.Gaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11561470171631737626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-87751207935072590952008-03-04T10:25:00.000-05:002008-03-04T10:25:00.000-05:00Tom- You had me at brie.

It came out two or three years ago, and while different, it's still a great book.<BR/>That Killers album is great.

A perfect thing to hide under a thermal t or a cashmere sweater, and always beautiful.<BR/>We had ants last year. Had to reseal the door frames, pray, do a tribal dance and beg the cats for help. Eventually the ants disappeared, but I'm not sure which of the above did the work.Gaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11561470171631737626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-83029454770892510642008-03-04T10:13:00.000-05:002008-03-04T10:13:00.000-05:00Edwardian- Missoni socks?

I'll probably be there later this year.

I pair it with a drapey salt and pepper tweed trouser.<BR/><BR/>Perfume: trying not to use up my decant of Carnal Flower too fast. A losing battle - I am in love!<BR/><BR/>Food: brown rice cooked with lots of garam masala spice mix, ginger and cardamom. I can eat it with almost any meal.<BR/><BR/>Drink: Anything with a splash of pomegranate juice. And my one very big cup of morning coffee, with soy milk and a spoonful of organic cocoa. Since it's he only one I will hav all day, I sip slowly.<BR/><BR/>Guilty pleasure: dark chocolate, naturally. And luxurious bath products - currently using B&BW Velvet Tuberose bath and shower cream.<BR/><BR/>Bane of my existence: getting up too early. Not a morning person, never have been, never will be.<BR/><BR/>Makeup item: i.e. Bare Minerals Mineral Veil - I would give up food to keep this in the house. Fortunately a nice big canister lasts a long time so I can still eat.<BR/><BR/>Anticipation: SPRING! I have a garden and I can't wait to see it bloom.<BR/><BR/>Wishlist: A real vacation on an island somewhere with no phones and no clocks.
