Today I ventured with green eye shadow. I always wished I could be a bit more versatile with my eye shadow colours but it seems that only a few shades compliment my eye/skin/hair colour best....and I don't think green is one of those shades. But I'm not going out anywhere important today or meeting anyone extra special so what the heck! Anyways, I personally think the green eye shadow makes the whites of my eyes more yellow for some odd reason. This is the look:
I used MAC's Steamy eye shadow on the whole eye lid and on the outer 1/3 of my eye lids I used Gosh's Effects Powder in 06 Greeny.
Yesterday I spent the afternoon with my Mom and older sister. Later on my Dad joined us and we went to a Malaysian take out food place called Gourmet Garden and they're actually pretty good.
In any case we had the regular fried noodles and I had beef curry with roti. The desert however was a Malaysian desert which you might not be as familar with (like me). I wasn't particularly crazy about the deserts like my older sister was...I think it's because it tastes so different than Canadian deserts which is what I grew up and crave (cheesecake, ice cream/frozen yogurt, tartes...mmmm.!). So anyways, I thought I would share a pic or two of the deserts so you can see what I mean by different. At the top of the picture is a Malay desert called Ice Kachang (my Dad said Kachang is "ice" in Malay) and it's not that bad...I tasted cappachino or some sort of mocha flavour to it but I was told it's palm or peanut syrup actually. At the bottom of the same picture is another Malay desert called Chendol. I could really taste the coconut milk in this desert and it's also got some palm or peanut syrup in it too.

Ice Kachang close up:
After you stir around the mountain of ice/peanuts in the Ice Kachang, you can see it has like jello like cubes in it and corn too! Corn in desert is a totally new concept for me so that's why I took this picture too!
Enough about desert....anyhow, I picked up a new handbag today! Yay! LOL. I have a bag similar to this giraffe like print however, I don't have a bag with horse hair on it. I've been eyeing a bag for a while that has that kind of short horse hair on it (I know it sounds weird so I hope you know what I mean). This is the bag I picked up and I'm really happy with it. Can't wait to wear it out!
The inside of the bag is lined in red:
A close up of the bag so you see what I mean about the texture/hair (I don't want to call it fur!):
And the bag is pretty spacious and large. I like big handbags because I always carry around a crap load of stuff! So this is a quick picture of me with my new bag:
Let me know what you were up to this weekend and how your week is going so far to start =)
