  1. I was hoping for an after shot of the henna. I have a jar of henna for years but I am to chicken to try for fear I would end up with a weird color.

    Sweet glasses! I hope you show us the henna results.

    This week I slept in to spoil myself before heading back to school.

  7. jane, i'll post one soon. you could always do a test strand. from my experience it's pretty natural looking.

    kt, i'm not crazy about the taste of ep bacon alone but like it in salads and on tomato sandwiches. let me know if you want the recipe i use.

    lela, it's bittersweet reading the last book. i don't want it to end! mmm, wild blueberries?!

    clint, it can be fun to make a fool of yourself every now and then. i think you agree.=)

    lauren, thanks, hehe.

    tammy, sounds fun!=)

  12. Love this post. I will have to find out what you made your eggplant bacon with. I made eggplant jerky this week and I hated it. It tasted funny to me. I guess it depends what you marinate it in. :)
