Otis.
Otis Spunkmeyer that is.
Lots of outside work was done today ( final leaf pickup +) but early this morning we went to Lowe's for the poinsettia sale. They are really nice this year and Carole wanted several too. They offered fresh coffee and muffins. Otis Spunkmeyer muffins. We could not find a replacement cartridge for the tiny powder room faucet, so I decided to redo the entire space. Also stopped at Kohls to see if their makeup section carried MakeUp Forever as they do through Sephora online. Nope. I really want to start wearing foundation so ordered the matte velvet cream (kohl's online) on sale for $10 today only (usually $40 ), but no idea of shade. I will either look jaundiced or ruddy. I considered trying IT but reviews say it transfers easily. It will kill me to pay those prices so trying this for 10 bucks makes me happy.
We just finished carving the bird, I am too exhausted to make the sides tonight so will do so in the morning. I really dislike carting meals to other houses. Especially when one is sick (Carole). I am anxious for Saturday's fricking turkey dinner to be over. So Otis and I decided to sit down and rest a bit.
This is how to decorate when you are waiting for a finish carpenter to add crown moulding. For years. At least it covers the raw 2x4s. That dark looking open slot is where cutting boards are kept.
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Taking 1-2 dishes elsewhere is enough of a task, I can't imagine trying for a whole meal. I haven't looked at makeup in years, I'd probably be shocked what's available now. Not to mention the prices. The last I used is probably curdled by now.
Stinks about the crown molding waiting for so long, I'd probably get up there and attempt it myself, or paint it by now. But your solution looks good, and I do like the cutting board storage. I hope the day goes well, and you get a nice well-deserved rest after it's all over with.
Happy thanksgiving to you too! I love the greenery fix you did in your kitchen!! On the subject of makeup… you might try TLC by Almay. I have been using it for years and it’s my go to. You can find it at your local drugstore. Not super cheap but way less than IT. I get two shades and blend them and apply with a moist sponge. It’s very smooth and doesn’t hover in my lines. Have a great day!!
I used to put on cream foundation every day. I have rosacea, so my skin coloring isn't even. Then my sister suggested bareMinerals MATTE SPF 15 Foundation, which is a powder. I love and haven't used anything else in years. It evens out the tone of my skin and is easy to apply with a brush. Highly recommend!
