REVIEW: Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado

Concealer is my best friend! If you asked me what one superficial beauty product I'd take with me to a deserted island, I would say concealer without a doubt! But being canadian means I also have to deal with our cold and dry winters. I found that the previous eye cream (Kiehl's Abyssine Eye Cream) I was using just didn't cut it anymore. My concealer looked HORRIBLE. Every dry surface under my eyes were being emphasized by a sucky eye cream (but then again, it was most for anti-aging).

RECIPE: Pumpkin Bread

As the usual Halloween protocol goes, you buy a pumpkin, you draw all over it, and then you carve it and let it sit on your porch for all to see on Halloween night. But what happens to that pumpkin after it's served its decorative purpose? Well, you bake with it, of course! I've always thought that simply throwing it away was such a waste of a perfectly good pumpkin!

Toasting pumkin seeds with a little bit of olive oil and salt makes a delicious snack!

Anyway, the pumpkin bread turned out perfect! It tastes a bit like carrot cake, but still delicious none the less!

Please see recipe here. I followed the recipe to a tee with no modifications.
