I Am So Totally In The Spirit

See?

I am a cat, in case you couldn’t tell. A pot-roast-eating, candy-handing-out cat. (My mom enticed us over with the promise of comfort food and trick-or-treaters.)

Last Year, On Halloween Weekend…

…we did this. (I was the Childlike Empress from The Neverending Story – my makeup was pretty awesome ifidosaysomyself – and Kendrick was Atreyu.)

This year, we saw Saw 3D, ate ramen at Naruto, and went to The Stumble Inn for Blue Moons with Morgan & Tyler. Less raucous, maybe…but just as great.

Blog Love / Navigeaters

Meet Adam and Laura, two writers on a gastronomical journey to sample the cuisine of every nation on the planet…without ever leaving NYC. It’s all chronicled on their blog, Navigeaters, and you have to check it out. Love this couple, and love their site.

Also, they’ve invited Kendrick and me along on one of their upcoming adventures! Raw chicken was mentioned. I don’t think I can do that. But we’ll see.

StriVectin Discovery Kit Winner…Plus Wrinkle Report!

Strivectin Wrinkle Report / Beauty Expert from Jordan Reid on Vimeo.

Presenting: the first installment of StriVectin’s Wrinkle Report, featuring Jeannine from Beauty Sweet Spot. Remember to click HERE to win one of 10,000 StriVectin SD samples and a trip for two to Los Angeles!

And the winner of the StriVectin Discovery Kit is…AlexisJulian!

I have to say: I was beyond thrilled when Alexis’ number popped up as the winner. I actually jumped out of my seat and did a little dance. Why? Here’s her entry:

I have been interested in Strivectin since one of my favorite beauty gurus on Youtube (lollipop26) mentioned that she loved it. But I’m 19 and happy with my day to day moisturizer. My mother, on the other hand, began chemo treatments last month and since chemo kills all fast growing cells, she’s been trying every kind of moisturizer under the sun to keep her skin as nice as possible. So I’m entering for my momma! I think her number one skin concern is wrinkles, but my number one concern for her is that I want her to feel as beautiful as possible even without her signature black curly bob.

Winner chosen via Random.org. Thanks to all who entered, and keep your eyes peeled for more great RG giveaways coming up!!
