Sunday Party Thread

WE also go to the sugar cane field to pick sugarcane. There are 2 types. The green stick ones are for sugar. We picked the black stick ones because we can boil soup and make juice out of it. You live in humid area, should have sugar cane?

Not in the immediate area, but sugarcane is grown in South Texas and the lower gulf coast, I think.

Yes, that's why Mom would like to have a gas stove in the future. They cook the food better and are more efficient.

Mum is now researching new style of skin care technique. Now adays, the beauty salon do not do facial any more. They are called aesthetic salon. They do not emphase on traditional facials anymore but more invasive technique: Laser, ILP light mask, microneedling, microdermabrasion, chemical peels etc... They put some cream on your face to lift your dead skin. Then they use a scrapper to scrub your face bits by bits. Mum think it is too dangerous to your skin. They they will tell you to use their "compromised skin product" to protect the new layer because it is easy to get dehydrated. Now mum found that a lot of pharmacy brand skincare starts to make products to deal with this type of skin. MUm thinks that LaRoche posay has a ciciplast b5 cream and mask that can protect the skin. Cerave also invented a balm to deal with aesthetic skin. So they should be fine. Do this type of salon come to your area? Mum is not brave enough to try them.

Did mum tell you about them not being able to get social security benefits? Granddad has a trust and because Mum's and Dad's possession are counted as one family unit, dad did not have the benefits he used to have before. Mum told him if they divorce, then dad will become a single "entity" and he can get the social benefits even if they live in the same house! Mum's psychiatrist laughed at this method and dad said why do we get married in the first instance if he wants social benefits!

Now mum also learn the combination of skincare chemical usage. You can pair vitamin C and hydrocaulic acid in the morning routine and retinol and hyro acid at night. Some products mix vitamin C and retinol together (but rare). However, NEVER use glycolic acid and AHA with retinol at the same time. Do not think your mum will have this problem because she has sensitive skin. Mum still recommede la roche posay and cerave as good items for sensitive skin.

Bed time for you now?? Please let us know.
