Fall Focus ~ Wool sweater, eye make-up, flowers and comfort food.

~ Autumnal shades ~

Glorious dahlias are boldly blooming here in The Humble Bungalow Garden.

I've cleaned and culled my make up bag and disposed of old mascara.

The last mascara I purchased was a real disappointment...

it was far too dark and really gloopy.

So I ventured to a local pharmacy 

where a long time clerk in the make-up section steered me in the right direction.

Benefit and Lancome

Brows and lashes

"Precisely My Brow" in "warm light brown" shade.

A soft smooth pencil to fill in the gaps and a wee brow brush for blending.

Waterproof, smudge proof for 12 hours.

Idole

360 micro bristle wand

feather light gel formula that provides:

Lash lifting mascara

140% eye opening effect

95% instant lift

94% intense volume

90% clump free lashes

Rachel Zoe wool sweater

comfy and cozy

sure to be a chill chaser

can be layered under my puffy vest.

Will wear this with my Eileen Fisher black pants or jeans.

If I had a great skirt I would pair it with that too...

HMMM...perhaps a skirt is next on my shopping list?

Will also match my grey cashmere socks.

Easy beans

a comforting meal on a chilly fall evening.

Slow Cooker Beans

6 slices of pork belly cubed

1 cup diced onion

1 cloves minced garlic

1 can pinto beans

1 can great Northern beans, drained

1 can baked beans

1 can kidney beans, drained

1 can garbanzo beans, drained

3/4 c ketchup

1/2 cup molasses

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 Tbsp. Worchestershire sauce

1 Tbsp. yellow mustard

1/2 Tsp. ground pepper

Put all the ingredients into a slow cooker.

Sir to mix and cook for 4 hours.

(Omit the pork belly if you want a vegetarian bean dish)

Serve with soft buns or toast.

Very tasty and so quick to assemble and the slow cooker does the work!

Enjoy.
