This is a delicious soup I found at the grocery store:

This is an excellent potato soup - very handy to keep in the pantry for chilly nights.  We could get our first snow this weekend & the grandchildren are over the moon since they will be here.

And yes, this is really my hair color - thanks to mother nature (it was darker before breast cancer).  But I was born with this color so I am happy with it.  I really need to use a molding wax but not sure which to get - I have this:

I discovered Paul Mitchell prods many years ago & have a stockpile that I am going to drag out and try again.  I think the sculpting glaze is going to do a good job for holding the style on top.

I have used Dr. Dennis Gross products over the years & like them.  So I had to try this new product:

 My stars  ~  they are growing so fast !!!!!!!!!
