Greens Water

was told it’s a movie called Late Fame, on Bloomfield Street.   New Jersey’s become quite a hub for the movie industry with studios in the works. 🎥

Long story short, I unexpectedly ran into some food bounty.   First, packaged goods, such as candied pecans, whole milk, packaged ham and bags of frozen rice went to the local shelter. After getting that food out of harm’s way, here’s what I’m doing with the perishable food that was left: 2 clamshells of arugula 4 heads of red cabbage 1 bunch of scallions 1 bunch of radishes 1 package of whole wheat English Muffins 1 Lime 1 Shallot 1 Package of 3 endives 1 package of crumbled Gorgonzola 2 unripe avocados A bunch of bananas 4 unripen pears I was roasting half a chicken anyway, so included the radishes as part of a roasted vegetable mix along with it.  The arugula, used it in sandwiches but I took a bunch of it for some pesto (arugula, olive oil, pistachios, garlic, lemon) which I then froze.  A smoothie with arugula, mango, banana and ginger helped with the banana overpopulation.  Bananas are of course a great element in smoothies. The arugula makes...

But not nearly cheesy or creamy enough. Better bechamel next time around. #coldweathercooking #vintagecorning

Not Paid. Stretched my drugstore budget and purchased this makeup during Sephora’s Christmas sale. A clean, well, cleaner makeup brand that’s Vegan, EU-compliant and Cruelty-Free.   What’s more, minimalist ethos and friendly to older women. I am starting with Merit Beauty, which has become the in-with-the-new, as I throw out the out-with-the-old. The goal is to move to as few makeup products as possible. Merit will help me with creamy formulations and multi-use. The foundation is also an undereye concealer, the blush can be used as eyeshadow. Sephora color matched the foundation using a cell phone camera, new to me. Matched the purchase with a clean out of my makeup box. New Year. New You.

Reselling handbags is a great part of the wild, wild west of reselling. That’s where there’s still profits. Handbags got the range. Designer bags range in good quality from still under $100 to lofty sums. Brands inspire passion.   You’ve got the drama of their passionate proponents. You’ve got the shifting strategies of the luxury houses versus their modern, forward-thinking competitors... and now including the completely predictable epic Wirkin fail. There’s tons of options, even if you are a working girl, just looking for one go-to bag. Tip:   While high-end luxury grows to stratospheric heights, other handbag brands can offer real value and opportunity, along with sometimes better design, craftsmanship and better sustainability practices.
