Guess what? I’m guest blogging over at Jo-Lynne‘s fabu fabulous Chic Critique! And it’s on my MOST favorite thing in all of the whole wide world–MINERAL MAKE UP. *sigh* I wish bareMinerals or one of the other high end companies would hire me. I’d work for product.

The Sunset Over the Ocean

October 19, 2007 By oh amanda

I hate the sunscreen, wearing a bathing suit, getting sunburn, having sand everywhere and the sea life. *shudder* However, the ocean is one of those places that makes me see God better.

Why I Don’t Read the Newspaper

May 27, 2007 By ohamanda

I bought a Sunday paper today because…well, I wanted to check out the coupons for Memorial Day. How sick is that? A day to honor the millions of men and women who have given their lives for our country and I’m checking out who’s having the best sale on swimsuits. So, after I hit the [...]
