Posted by | Posted on 23-01-2012

I love the southern hippie looks featured on StyleSheets House of Plates 1 post this morning. In particular, I have a style crush on that sweet thing in glasses and bangs, wearing the shirt dress, vest, and cowgirl boots. I especially love her long earrings, which has reminded me of the super cheap selection of long earrings over at Movida in Mockingbird Station. I found a handful of priced at $12 to $14 just last week. See photo above for a few pairs.

Food Allergy Awareness Week: May 8 to May 14

Posted by | Posted on 31-12-2011

Food Allergy Awareness Week is observed from May 8 to May 14. This annual observance was initiated in 1997 by the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN), an organization that advocates on behalf of patients and families.

People with food allergies must be hyper-vigilant when choosing the food they eat.

So if you’re just dying to waggle that finger in the face of anyone interested enough to look, here are just a few good ways to treat your manual woes and get your hands in presentable condition.

1. Dry skin. Even if you’re rushed in the morning, take a minute to apply some moisturizer to your hands. Immediately after a shower is the best time since your pores are open and ready to absorb moisture and lock it in. Look for a thick, creamy lotion (like Jergen’s Shea Butter Lotion) that will leave your skin soft and smooth.

2. Yucky nails. Even if you’re not a nail-biter you can end up with some pretty mangled claws if you don’t pay attention. You should
