Long Weekend Skiing at Schweitzer

I did not find any computer time this weekend because I was busy skiing for a wonderful 3 days at Schweitzer Mountain near Sandpoint, ID. It was an epic weekend with tons of new snow and powder, times with family and Dustin and lastly, wonderful food!
I am pretty much the worst photographer ever. One, because I caught only the clouds and not any of the sun that was present at the moment. Two, Dustin is super far away!
Upon my arrival home I had two wonderful boxes for me from Amazon and Bloom.com. Amazon contained two books: Williams-Sonoma Baking Book (to help me on my new hobby of baking stuff) and the Big Book of 15 Minute Workouts (I was sick and tired of searching them on the internet and transcribing them).

Bloom's box offered the fun stuff, such as shampoo, conditioner and lotions. I prefer bloom.com because I get 10% rewards whenever I buy something from them. I want to save all my rewards to splurge on a Clairisonic Mia or super nice hair dryer. Something that I think could radically change my skin/hair regiment but am too thrifty to normally buy. Last night, I tried this new moisturizer by Ole Henrikson (which I splurged on a little bit by my face is so dry, I was desperate!!!). I was a little worried because I put it on after the shower and I didn't feel that my face was that moisturized. Like, it did not feel super saturated with creme. However, the peeling and dehydration of skin was mostly gone when I woke up this morning so I was pleasantly surprised. One note about this formula is that seems to be mostly aloe vera, glycerin and chamomile. I am thinking that I could make this concoction with drug store ingredients (aloe vera is super cheap!) for much less money, so I will give that a try when it runs out.
