12 Days of Halloween - Day 2

You still have time to get Halloween postcards to send to those little ones who will have fun with mail Just For Them. But for older folks, how about these vintage postcards from Dover Publications ? They also have electronic ones you can send.

On My Desk..October 1

I hope by the end of the day there will be a better shot. Hopefully, this is Part 1 of today's OMD. The mess... No no, don't tell me you've seen this concept before. I know. I've seen it too. But...one has to believe!


Oh those papers. I've got some idea of what to do with these tho it certainly is an idea in progress.

Back to you later.

p.m. postscript
Lots done...I'm really happy that with a good pot of tea, and music that Itunes genius selected for me, I got a clear space. One bookcase gone.


More of the magazines sorting for collage, atc work etc


ATCs ready for the post office. (I love this outgoing mail system. Works for me!) And look at that full trashcan.


So let that cool air continue to come in. If it brings more rain, fine with me.


A good night to all.

12 Days of Halloween - Day 1

Day 1...Time to Get Beautiful with a holiday idea from Country Home magazine back in 2007.

Pumpkin Powered Mask

3 tsp canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
1/2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp milk

Apply the mixture to your face (as always avoid eye area) and leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water and apply moisturizer.

Personally, I don't see why you can't use fresh pumpkin mushed up for this. I suppose the original recipe was to help people use up dribbles and drabs of canned pumpkin after a pie is made. I say ...use some fresh pumpkin or squash if you have it cooked.
