The thing is, I love Jodie Whittaker and was so excited for her Doctor. But her companions were so bland. Ugh just super boring. And I couldn't keep up with the lore for some reason. It just didn't hold my interest and I was so sad about it. :(

    This is so real, I swear to god. I joke about how neurotic I am about housework, and my house is always pristine, but still my worst nightmare is someone stopping by unexpectedly. My house can be spick and span and I'll still apologize for the state of it.

    Has anyone tried the On The Rocks flanker for Angels' Share? I love both the original Angels' Share and the Paradis flanker, so I'm intrigued by On The Rocks. If you've tried it, is it well balanced, or is it overly zesty? I like Paradis so much because it brings some sweetness into the mix which I think gives a nice counterbalance. But On The Rocks has citrus notes which will probably do the opposite. If you've tried it let me know your thoughts!

     

    A month or so ago, I was on a quest for a great peach fragrance, and ended up stumbling on 1969 by Histoires de Parfums, which isn't a simple peach fragrance, but does have peach notes. It sounded amazing and so on a whim I blind bought it (got the 0.5mL which is $50). I'm so happy I did! It's complex and sexy. I'm not the most sophisticated when it comes to describing fragrances - it's hard for me to pick out specific notes sometimes - but I'd describe this as starting out spicy/musky and mellowing to a creamy, very alluring spiced sweetness in the drydown. It's sensuous, long-wearing, and I seriously can't get enough!

    The description is:

    Top notes: fruits of the sun, peach

    Heart notes: rose, white flowers, cardamom, clove

    Base notes: patchouli, chocolate, coffee, musk

    Also the packaging is gorgeous:

    I'm going to check out some of their other fragrances!

    I got my first pull-up! (startrek.website)
     

    I don't know where else to share this, but I'm so proud of myself so I've gotta post it somewhere. I've finally got my first unassisted pull-up! It wasn't a goal I was working super hard toward, but I've noticed a lot of new muscle definition in my back, probably because I do a lot of rows, especially bird-dog rows and renegade rows. So I tried a pull-up and I was able to do one pretty easily! Not bad for a middle-aged lady! Now I've got a goal to do three. :)
