It sounded awesome. I believe that all Halloween costumes should be homemade.<br /><br />Charlotte - thanks for the input. I think I look better without them too. We're getting married April 2010. Rand has already accused me of fashion blogging during our honeymoon. ha!<br /><br />Brooke - is young a bad thing? As in too young for my age?<br /><br />Lorena - thanks for your opinion. I hate washing my hair. I only do it 2x week.<br /><br />Anon - thanks! You are right about the ponytail - looks so much more polished with bangs.<br /><br />Erin - yeah, I've hated it every time I have cut them. So why am I considering this?? I'm bored.<br /><br />Kari - Good suggestion about the flat iron. Too bad I am so lazy. I hate doing my hair.<br /><br />Heather - thanks! And you have wavy hair too. hmm. This decision is getting tough.<br /><br />Sher - good point! fake = fabulous??<br /><br />MissAmy - oh no! I hope you had a stern talking to with your reader. :)<br /><br />AskewToYou - thanks! I'm getting more and more excited about the fake bangs as a good middle option.<br /><br />Sherry - I'm very sorry to say that I don't have a very healthy option for the BBQ Beef Cups. It's a Rand Recipe, so it's not diet friendly. We have made it "regular" and we've made it "diet" and both taste about the same. For "diet" we use longhorn beef (it's lower in calories than turkey, but hard to come by. I get it from my parents. But low fat beef or ground turkey would help). And I use the lower calories/low fat biscuits, low caloried BBQ sauce, and non-fat shredded cheddar. It's still a higher calorie meal, but not the end of the world. I usually eat 2 of them and a ton of veggies. It's very filling.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831243896567542815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196349177980628177.post-28734749563395715292009-08-22T13:40:54.532-05:002009-08-22T13:40:54.532-05:00Do you have a somewhat healthy recipe for the bbq ...Do you have a somewhat healthy recipe for the bbq beef cups?

I think I'm growing them out - the hairdresser this last time did them weird so I can't wait till they're longer again. <br /><br />Anyway, I've been missing you! My feed reader wasn't pulling your feed! And then today it decided to & there were 26 posts I had missed. Naughty feed reader!

I've heard that cutting bangs with wavy hair can be pretty risky, but since your hair isn't actually curly-curly, I wonder if smoothing your bangs with a flatiron would help?<br /><br />Pretty green wrap and earrings!Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212083582840025605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196349177980628177.post-54670095983170232062009-08-20T16:50:08.691-05:002009-08-20T16:50:08.691-05:00I just have to counter Anon and say that while it ...I just have to counter Anon and say that while it worked out got her, it was the dumbest thing I ever did.

I have fairly heavy, thick bangs that come to just below my brows (anything higher can look dorky on some people). The options are endless. Wear them straight across, side sweep them, pin them back, hold them back with a head band, etc. Everyone is so scared to get bangs but trust me...it modernizes your look so much. Even a plain old ponytail looks more polished, and like you gave more effort, when you have bangs!

I have thick, unruly curly hair, so I was a little scared of getting bangs, but I *love* them. They're thick and sideswept, and take only a few extra minutes to style straight even if I'm wearing my hair curly. :-)<br /><br />I love the golden snitch necklace! One year Erin went as a golden snitch for Halloween and it was a totally brilliant costume.
