DownEast sent me an adorable swim suit to take with me to Europe.  Viktor pointed out that people in Europe don’t obsess over their bodies like Americans, and that maybe it was time I invest in a bikini to wear to the bath houses in Budapest.

Sometimes I put out the fires and sometimes I start them. Sometimes I really do have it all together. Sometimes my children say otherwise. We just like to keep it real around here.

This week’s What’s in your Purse Series purse is from Polly.  Thanks!

–If you want to submit your purse to the series take two photos of your purse {nice, clean non-blurry ones} one of the outside, one of the inside, along with a listing of the contents to allisonATpetitelefantDOTcom

Ahem . . . is it okay to admit, on this stylish blog, that I have no purse?

I’m really in love with olive oil,  I think it’s the 8th natural wonder of the world.  In addition to cooking with olive oil I use it for moisturizer, homemade bath bombs, homemade sugar scrub, natural deep hair conditioner, and yes I use it to remove my makeup.

It seems really counter-intuitive to put oil on your face, but I promise it’s amazing.
