Last week I was thrilled to attend the book release party for “Lost in Suburbia: A Memoir: How I Got Pregnant, Lost Myself, and Got My Cool Back in the New Jersey Suburbs.” The author and I had long been social media friends, and it is always lovely to put a “real life” face to the name.
Plus, I got a blow out, I’m always up for a good blow out from the fabulous Lux Salon in Bethesda. This is me pre blow out:
This is me after blow out, and after I had won an awesome set of sheets from Fresh Linens. Great hair do, new awesome book to read, AND great new sheets: BEST EVENT EVER.
Also in the swag bag was the most amazing clinical grade skin care, Theraderm. I’ve been using the products for a week and my skin looks amazing. Another product in the Swag bag, Unite Luxury and Shine moisture creme, which I love, and is helping with my fight against frizz in the DC humidity, is no where to be found online. I may have to drive over to the salon just to buy it. That is how committed I am to my hair.
The best part of the event, as with all events, was just hanging with my friends. Seeing the cast of Listen to Your Mother, some of which I haven’t seen the the show. Listening to Tracy read from the book, what she read was HILARIOUS. Drinking wine and eating cheese. I ate a lot of cheese. And the delicious cookies.
I haven’t started the book yet. I’m saving it for long lazy days this summer at the pool.
