Makeup and appeal blog Monday Poll, Vol. 346
You might be wondering, “So what in tarnation is this Monday Poll thing anyway!?”
Well, it isn’t exactly a poll. Düzenli olarak gelişen bir (gelişen?), Biraz rastgele sorular listesi, her pazartesi sabahı son yedi yıldır okurlara koyduğum bir soru listesi. (It’s like a kickstart for your brain.) I’ve always took pleasure in reading your answers in the comments, and I hope you take pleasure in reading mine.
Something that saves you time when you’re getting ready in the morning?
Curling my hair and/or doing a blowout early on Monday morning, which normally takes me about a half an hour, so that all I have to do the rest of the week is touch up my roots with a little dry shampoo (I’m really lovin’ this one from Living Proof, BTW) and swiftly brush it through.
Saves me a ton of time to not have to style my hair on a daily basis. Plus, in that weirdly icky, ironic hair way, I think my hair looks better as it gets grungier throughout the week.
Cheesecake or pie?
Pie all day, every day, son! Please make mine pecan with a big scoop of whipped cream on top. thank you kindly.
Would you rather read a romance, or a mystery?
Hmm… OK, how about a young adult romantic mystery??
ÇOK KOMİK! but seriously, probably a mystery, but it’s gotta be lighthearted and fun. I can’t get into books that are too heavy or severe these days.
Bugün hava nasıl?
Aman Tanrım! Yağmur yağıyor!! It’s cold, completely overcast and lightly raining.
It was pouring last night and this morning, and we had some loud, long thunder and lightning. poor Tabs was terrified! He was staring out one of the windows when the thunder struck, and it afraid him so badly that he leapt in the air and started coughing!
I think he may have choked for minute, but he seems ok now.
When was the last time you wore a uniform?
If we’re defining “uniform” in the strictest sense of the word, then it was probably my band uniform back in high school, and good despair that thing was hideous! Ruffles and a huge, ill-fitting bucket hat just ain’t cute.
But if we’re using the looser, a lot more normal definition of “uniform,” then it was probably about eight or nine years ago when I worked as a legal assistant in a tall building in downtown SF.
I pretty much wore a slightly different version of the same thing each day — black pants, black shirt, black shoes.
Eh, it was easy, and I didn’t want to think too hard.

Good morning, sweet friend! It’s a stormy day here in northern California.
Wanna hear something kind of random…? I just observed that I can’t sit as close to my desk as I used to because of baby girl and my tum.
Yup, and my keyboard feels so far away… LOL! I know I keep saying this, but that’s because I’m regularly shocked: baby girl is getting ginormous! I was staring at my stomach the other night, and she kicked so hard that I actually saw the skin move.
It was both delightful and freaky at the same time.
In other random news, I made a loaf of banana bread last night, and it’s already nearly gone. El Hub and I tore into that thing with a fierceness!
The recipe came from MBB reader Rachel R.’s hubby (thank you very much, you guys!), and it was effing deliciously light, cake-like and moist. thank you again, Rachel, for sharing it!
