Sasha & Malia would love this stuff...

Hi ladies,
THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY OF OUR LIVES IS HERE!! Have you voted yet? I'm going the second I finish this post! I'm just mad I can't wear my fancy Obama pin (my girlfriend gave it to me yesterday...it's all crafty and decorated with feathers and sequins and stuff. Very Trannies of America Heart Obama). I don't want to get prematurely cozy with this whole thing, but the idea of bringing my little lady into the world the same month that our first black president is elected--and it's more than that, it's that it's HIM--well, it makes me want to burst with pride. It's just so sad that his grandma couldn't be here to see it. Okay, must stop. Don't want to count chickens or jinx the moment.

But I just can't imagine a world where he wouldn't win (she said very very quietly)...


So let's talk beauty for a quick moment. I recently bought Kiehls Superbly Restorative Argan Skin Salve ($25) as a baby moisturizer, and have decided that I need it more than the Lil Diva. Blended with patchouli, orange, cedarwood, and fair-trade Moroccan Argan oils, this intense salve is GENIUS...and it does everything. You just run your fingers over the hard salve, rub them together to melt it into a luxurious oil, and apply it wherever you need a moisture surge. I use it on my elbows, as massage oil (very necessary these days...thanks Sunshine!), on my cuticles, my lips, and even on the ends of my hair. It's definitely become a staple in my bathroom, and I plan to get another one for my bag. Worth every last dime of the $25! Now that I'm all moisturized and silky-soft, I'm on my way to Barack the Vote...
Happy Election Day,
Tia
