Blessed Beauty.
“Never loose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful. For beauty is God’s handwriting- a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Great Expectations!
“Cheerfulness and Contentment are great beautifiers and are famous preservers of youthful looks.” -Charles Dickens
Post Shopping First Aid For The Feet.
As if the crowds and the passive/aggressive Tango-like tussle for last minute Holiday gifts wasn’t madness enough, fingers and toes (if you can bear it) crossed you don’t have to call (or rather feel like you want to call) Emergency Services to resuscitate your fagged out feet. This is the perfect time of the year to make sure you, absolutely, have some Epsom salts and peppermint essential oil on hand if needed to bring your feet back around post shopping. The “too-easy” foot fixing combo of a warm foot soak of Epsom salts with a few drops of quality peppermint essential oils tossed in for good measure ought to have your feet back in fine enough form to face heading back to the shops to pick up that last present for the Auntie Agnes or the Cousin Clancy type you’ve just heard will be joining you on Christmas Day! Eep! Nothing much is ever a problem when your feet are feeling fine. So do remember these handy items along with your “sensible” shoes (if one’s outfit dictates, of course) and you’re sure to stay in good step for the Holiday Season.
I’m Starting To Dig This Email Posting.
Well not really, but that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. *smiles politely then roll eyes* I am still having to submit the Get Even More Gorgeous With Beauty Marked! Blog posts via email which is doable, but it can only accommodate a rather No-Frills type post. That’s cool. We can get with the less is more, right? So in the meantime, while waiting for these last few technical hitches to be sorted, I’d appreciate it tremendously, if you kept the gorgeous and immensely inspiring emails and comments flowing in all about “What Makes You Feel Beautiful?” that would be fabulous. Gosh, the replies I have received to date have just been amazing! I look forward to sharing them with you in the New Year. So please keep the gorgeousness rolling in.
(A big sQuIsHy) Thanks!

Partially Cloudy With Sunny Patches.
Just a update to let you know that Beauty Marked! is still operating at half power due to a few seemingly tenacious technical difficulties. So please accept this skeletal post as our offering for today. The “A” Team is on the job and I’m still busy positively affirming away. So, fingers crossed, we’ll be cooking with gas by tomorrow. And yes, we’re still on the scrounge for any spare magic spells and waves of wands that can be directed in our general direction. That sure would be ever so lovely and much appreciated!
Until then,
BM! xx
What The? Wednesday!
Ghosts in the Machine? Conspiracy to Commit Circuitry Chaos? Digital Deception? Lord knows what has been going on with my computer today! So my best laid plans of posting something even remotely inspired were dashed at the outset by who knows what? So sorry Lovely Ones…We’ll have to try again tomorrow. *whispers* Hey, I sure wouldn’t mind any spare well wishes, magic potions or spells, (that is, if you’ve got any kicking about) to be sent my way that are especially designed to give computers safe and fruitful passage for tomorrow, that is for sure. I’d appreciate that very muchly. *whispers again* Me thinks it’s time for a new computer. *Sob. Snort*
