Happy Monday, dear friends. Hope y'all had a great weekend. It is a cold, rainy, miserable Monday here in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
We had a fairly busy weekend. I did manage to peek in on another small Christmas fair and an art fair. I wasn't there very long but I did take a few pics.
The holiday fair was sponsored by the Newcomers Club in Hanover. The Mister was in cookie heaven.
This lovely lady is the author of a children's book.
I stocked up on these for the girls' visit next week.
The Mister and I went to see this movie. For being such a handsome guy, Jake nails it as a creepy sociopath. The film was a little slow in the beginning, but made up for it in the end. There is a chase scene in it that should come with a warning: Wear Depends! Although this movie is very entertaining, I would wait to see it when comes out on Netflix.
I've got two new favorite things.
A couple of weeks ago, a sweet girl waited on us in a restaurant. I couldn't help but notice her gorgeous, long, dark eye lashes. I asked her what brand of mascara she was wearing and she was kind enough to spill her secret.
Naturally, after leaving lunch, I broke the speed limit making my way over to Sephora and snatched one up. So glad I did. I love it! It is easy to apply and does not clump. It makes my lashes look thick. Just like my thighs.
I have a few grey blond eyebrow hairs that manage to make an appearance whenever I am dressed up and going somewhere. This brow mascara by Maybelline works wonders to camouflage them and stays on all day. Great price, too!
Stay warm and dry!

I'm Katie. Welcome to my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my midlife years one page at a time. We sold our antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts in October 2020 and relocated to the Dallas suburbs and our forever home.
I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, shopping, decorating, Bravo, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material, however, is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, my favorite son-in-law, and my new little mischief-maker, thoroughly darling Millie. I love hearing from my wonderful readers.
