Since I was a little kid I’ve been environmental

Since I was a little kid I’ve been environmentally conscious. I’ve spent time and a lot of money studying nutrition, vitamin supplements, ingredients in body and beauty products. I’ve always tried to minimize toxins in my environment. 💄 For many years that was hard to do with cosmetics because the quality of what you could get that was environmentally friendly and not only to the environment but your skin just wouldn’t hold up to what was readily available in the department store. As a professional makeup artist, I needed products to get the job done and to last. 💄 happily that’s changed and there are plethora of products available that are good for you and good for the environment. @vapourbeauty asked me if I would like to try these products and I said yes. 💄 All the ingredients are responsibly sourced to be friendly for you and the environment. Even the packaging is environmentally friendly💄 for this look are used a powder blush a lipstick and then a gloss over the top. This is a nude toned palette from their desert dreaming collection. I like it for a soft focus summer look. What do you think? Let me know if you’d like me to help you create a look; from recommending colors, brushes to use, or products, I can help you do that. 💄 in fact this is one way I’m hoping to pivot my business since I’m not seeing people in person and travel writing has dried up.

It’s peach season in Texas and this year the pea

It’s peach season in Texas and this year the peaches are sweet and juicy. Heck, Georgia peaches ain’t got nothing on Texas peaches. 🍑 when I was a kid my aunt Min made peach ice cream. I’d love to see her again and have a bowl of peach ice cream.🍑 I think the pandemic has made me appreciate all the little things. Not that I didn’t appreciate them before but they seem almost bittersweet now. 🍑 by the way, the photo is downtown where the Farmers Market is held. I also took a photo to show the sky since this Saharan dust has blown into town. Swipe left to see a couple more picks. Random day. But, I’ve got peaches! .

The official drink of summer, pink. Did you know t

The official drink of summer, pink. Did you know that originally rose’wine was made by mixing water into red wine? Later, instead of harvesting red and white grapes separately the Romans just threw them all together and mixed them up. Eventually, they got to separating the white and the red grapes and pressing the red grapes with the skins for just a very short time to create what has become the Rose’ we know today.💕 for something a little special, Kenwood vineyards in Sonoma County produces a rose’ of Pinot Noir available only through the winery. On the nose and the palate I noticed ripe strawberries and citrus but the wine is bone dry. Very much a Provençal style. You can drink this all summer long and it pairs well with a lot of different foods too. I drank it from this glass that I typically use for a sparkling wine - it just felt right to me. Break some rules. Have fun. Drink the wine. 💕 .

Since I’m not traveling these days you may have

Since I’m not traveling these days you may have noticed that I’m sharing a lot more wine and food pairing information. I started a series with my friends in a Alsace France. 🥨 My latest recipe -well it’s not mine but graciously shared with me. Salmon, shrimp, fennel, carrots, spinach coconut milk. Took about 30 minutes to prepare and the same to cook. Quick and easy. 🥨 Valerie at @emilebeyer1580 recommends a Riesling or Gewurztraminer to pair with it. I visited the Beyer tasting room in Eguisheim when I was in Alsace and tasted both of these wines. You may notice I have a thing for Alsace! 🥨 now you have your dinner for the weekend. Let me know if you try it. I did and it was tasty though I think I put too much soy sauce. Bon appetite! 🥂.

Willamette Valley, Oregon is known for a cool clim

Happy National Rose’ Day ! Depending on who you

Happy National Rose’ Day ! Depending on who you ask the date may change nevertheless, A day to celebrate drinking a lovely pink-ish wine can’t be bad, yes? 💕 The wine that I’m drinking today is actually from @peyrassol 💕 It’s organic and made from a blend of cinsault, Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Rolle. This wine has tastes of grapefruit and raspberries and pomegranate and just a slight hint of peach and minerality. It finishes rather fruity and so you have this sort of fruit and salt finish that’s quite delightful. 12.5% alcohol this could be my go to summer wine. Oh yes and it’s certified organic by Ecocert. 💕 here’s to summer! Sante’! .P.S. I wrote an article listing all the national wine days (most ) if you would like to read it - check out @winecountry .

I think we could all use a little humor in our lives. Thanks to these fun people who invite others to stop, take photos, laugh! Laughter has been pretty absent in my world lately, what about yours? .
