The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: A Quick Weekend Review

The Good, The Bad & The Ugly: A Quick Weekend Review

I had a nice, relaxing weekend for a change! Yipeee!

My SIL Trish had a crop at her house with about 6 girls. She usually does this about once a month and it is a LOT of fun, giggling, chic flicks and a bit of scrapbooking usually occurs too!

I got a chance to try a product out from UHU: their permanent tape runner. I used it to make this layout and these cards.
So far, so good - I would recommend the UHU product.

It's a nice size, fits in your hand nice, applies nice and seems to have a good hold (although you will have to check back with me in 5 years for a true opinion on the last one! ;-)). You can learn more about their products here.

Okay... next review. I tried the spray on hair remover depilatory cream from Sally Hansen.

Honestly, I am going to have to give this one two thumbs down. Bottom line is pretty simple: there was still too much hair on my legs after leaving it on for the maxi um time allowed: 10 minutes. One plus: the spray went on well, but what does that matter when 1/2 the hair didn't come off my legs?? Another negative: makes your shower EXTREMELY slippery (even with little grippes on the bottom of shower). I would NOT recommend this product. It's expensive and does not remove hair like the depilatory cream you spread on with your hands. Hmppph!

All right, one final review for you. We watched Burn After Reading again this weekend (we saw it when it came out in the theatre last year and just recently bought it).

Burn After Reading is a Cohen Brothers movie. If that means anything to you, it will be either a warning or an enticement. Hopefully, an enticement. It is a great movie with a fantastic cast about nothing. Yup, nothing. It's a dark spy comedy that has the most absurd story line of people spying on one another and gettin' up in each other's business... except they really have no idea WHAT that business is. Hmmm... something tells me that I'm not doing this review justice. Bottom line: it's a great movie! If you love the Cohen Brothers, you will love it. If you love dark comedy, you will love it. If you don't, you will probably hating. Two warning about the movie: there are a TON of sexual innuendos and the F-bomb is dropped constantly. I'd be curious to know if you've seen it and what you think about it??
