i am jumping on this bandwagon really late.

but, very happy i finally made it!

do you know about all the health advantages that coconut oil offers? have you heard of coconut oil?
{here is one article to get you started… please read!}

i have at least a dozen friends who have been raving about coconut oil for some time now {many of my besties are serious health nuts} , and for some reason i just kept listening but not acting on their advice.

these two little girlies are the cutest of friends.

last week, they were both going to be fairies in their dance recital, and being a fairy required special fairy make-up!

so, my friend rebecca and i decided to take our girls to lunch after their morning rehearsals… we all had lunch at the nordstrom cafe’, and then headed right on over to the mac counter.

this was their first time, for both girls, at the mac counter for makeovers. {obviously!}

omgosh. i was rolling. these two cutie-patooties were crack-ups! they loved every minute of it & i was dying at some of their expressions in the pictures!

1 cup oil
+ scented oils,

i like white teeth. more specifically, straight. white teeth. that’s why i firmly believe that people need to go to a dentist such as someone like this cosmetic dentist San Diego.

i quickly notice when someone has a beautiful smile, shining with clean-white teeth. i’m somewhat addicted to whitening my teeth. which is why, i’m going to share with you, my favorite whiteners…along with a few other teeth tid-bits.

first, i’m going to digress here: did anyone else notice in ‘sex & the city 2’ how nasty miranda’s teeth looked? especially on the big screen!!! uggghhhh. blahh. dusty & i were grossed out the entire movie, just by her teeth! It stressed me out so much,

rori has asked, in reference to this post…

“I would love to participate, for many reasons. But…I’m kind of slow….I’m still not quite sure what no sugar means?
