Yay – it’s Friday today – TGIF!

Hope you had a wonderful week with no drama or disaster. And even if there was drama, I hope you were able to handle it gracefully.

As for me, I’m already in the holiday mood, chilling out on the couch with my favorite tea – Twinings Earl Grey, while browsing through my Facebook feed. Here’s a cup of tea for you (*nudging the cup and saucer towards you*). Continue reading

Oh winter,

How much I hate you – you’re just so damned cold and dark!

For a while a there, you had me totally under your curse – locked up in my room, snuggled inside the quilt with nothing much to do but brood over the darkening days.

Now with sun shining in all its glory – thank God, I’m totally over you.

I often get dandruff from time to time, particularly when the seasons change. And to treat it I often reach for an anti-dandruff shampoo – sometimes Dove, sometimes Heads & Shoulders depending on the condition of my hair and scalp.

I have dry, wavy hairs that tend to get all the more dry and unruly in hot, humid weather. So quite rationally, I always use some sort of leave-in hair oil or conditioner on my ends to keep them throwing any wild fits. But still no matter how well they behave indoors, when the temperature soars outside and humidity proliferates, they turn into feral vampires.

I had been using L’Oreal Professional Liss Unlimited leave in cream to keep my hair looking calm and smooth. But this was back when I was using flat iron every other day to straighten my hair and it left me with super dry, frizzy hair. And while it did help me bring my mop back to the brink, it’s been weighing my hair down of-late, maybe since I have now embraced my natural waves and chilled out of heat styling. Continue reading

Appetite is your willingness to eat. Whenever your body needs energy or your tummy is empty, it will give signals in the form of hunger, but sometimes it may function differently resulting into lack of appetite or unnecessary binging on food. Changes in eating pattern, whether positive or negative may reflect some kind of health issue for sure. Mostly these issues are related to anxiety and stress.

Happy Valentine’s Day Lovelies!

Call me traditional or call me crazy but every Valentine’s Day, I fall in love with the color Pink. There’s something about ‘Pink’ that just feels *right*for the day.

And why not? After all, “Men want women to be pink, helpless and do a lot of deep breathing. If a girl has curviness, exciting lips and certain breathlessness, it also helps. And it won’t do a bit of harm if she has a kittenish, soft cuddly quality” ~ Jayne Mansfield.

So girls, whether you want to spend the day with your man, go out with your girl-friends, or just pamper yourself, here’s a perfect pink plan to celebrate Valentine’s Day the feminine way: Continue reading
