How To: Make Cheap Eyeliner Look High Quality

            Buying high end makeup is become more and more unnecessary because drugstore brands are stepping up their game every season.  With this trick, you can even get by with using the cheapest quality of eyeliners and still make your eye-look look perfect.  This NYC double ended eyeliner was about $1, so basically 50 cents for each color. 
         

             What you'll need is a cheap eyeliner and a lighter.  With the lighter flicked on, sweep the tip of the pencil through the flame.  This will make it softer, creamier, and more opaque. 

                                              Here's the before and after:

How To: Make High Waisted Cut-off Shorts

                                       Start with a pair of high waisted jeans.

With some sort of writing utensil, draw a line of where you would like to cut.  I used a white eyeliner pencil.

Drawing a full line will ensure that you will get the straightest cut as possible.  I suggest making a lower line/cut on the back of the jeans so that your butt won't be hanging out of them.

Uggs

                     That stain on the toe of my Ugg is from a piece of tofu landing on it...

Fake Turkey Burgers

            I'm not a big meat eater, but I do love a nice rack of ribs or a pulled pork sandwich.  But I figure if I can avoid eating meat in any meal, I probably should.  I'm a big fan of Morning Star's products; they make really tasty meat alternatives without losing all the benefits of meat.  I found these California "Turkey" burgers, with avocados in them, in the frozen section at Target and was very impressed. 

A Three For One Special

            Today I made these too tasty to be true brownie/Oreo/chocolate chip cookie things.  I can hear your taste buds begging you to make these all the way from here.  So make them.

                             Here's a shot of the city that I took on Treasure Island:

And last but not least, a picture of Tucker and his new friend, Frankie, at the dog park.

                                The face says: "Uh, why is this dog sniffing me?"

An Embarassingly Cute Rain Jacket

                                           We like to go on walks in the rain.

                                                       And then snuggle.

                             He just sneezed as I was typing this.  So bless you, Tucker.
