Amedama on the Go Go

Groom

Mr. M left this past Friday evening for this place

Which left me alone in London on a rare weekend when I had no plans of my own.  A very dangerous situation to be in because I am most likely to go shopping.

Lash Extensions

For a little over a year now I've been hearing about eyelash extensions.  First just as rumours from friends that live in Asia (It turns out that I am not the only Asian woman to be fixated with lash products.  Apparently, most of us share the curse of shorter - sparser- stick straight lashes - that gives us the lash envy- that spawns the fixation).  Then this blogger went into detail with her experience.
