Snow Day.

The outside of my window looks like a snow globe- all swirling fat flakes and snow covered trees. It makes for a very lazy day. My dogs and husband are all napping, the cat has burrowed under the comforter in the spare room. I'm making coffee and basically just puttering around. Tonight's dinner is a crock pot of lentils, and mixed beans with mushrooms, cilantro, green onions, garlic and celery baking in a tequila bbq sauce with fresh lime juice. Yum.
I love moods like this. Where the weather doesn't make you want to go out but you don't feel oppressed by staying in. I tend to always need to be doing something so for me this is a rare mood. I can sit and catch up on other people's blogs and peruse various web sites and not feel like I am neglecting something be it housework ( which is done btw), the dogs, my husband, school work etc. I think tonight will be all about cuddling under a warm blanket watching movies to the glow of the fireplace- electric that is.

Innocence Mineral Cosmetics

Make-up I am loving right now. Totally bright and every colour you can think of in this mineral make-up line. They have no fillers, dyes or synthetics. But some of them do contain carmine which is an animal product ( ones that are red) so not all of them are vegan. These shadows can go on soft and glimmery or bright and rockin. They are based out of Calgary Ontario. http://www.innocencecosmetics.com/

Dark Sexy Vegan t's and Prints.

Finally! Something dark and sexy and with a message that isn't some beer slogan. I love this designer's artwork for these Vegan t-shirts! The artist creating the designs is named Rolland Straller. He sells prints on Deviant art and also on t-shirts at the link below.

Some of these would make awesome tattoos if you ask me.
