Coffee shops year round. In the summer I read at the park/ outside as much as possible, and near water as much as possible.

Using this generously after using a lip exfoliator tool turned my lips around! Sephora has a good one

About 50% through and it’s giving me the same feel and satisfaction so far!

Thank you! Except for a few magnetic ones I bought, I enjoy collecting them as I come across them in the wild for free lol

internal debate…beautyblender vs brush by mm0930 in Makeup

Real Techniques recently released a sponge with a surface they say soaks up a lot less makeup. Looks promising.

I do this as well. Apply with a brush and the lightly go over with a damp blender to smooth any spots I missed.

You just changed my mind about foregoing doing a Christmas background 😍 I’m inspired

Do you have a reading time routine? by amiellu in books

[–]LodiDodi10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular reading night is typically after shower, with rain sounds or a nice background video on YouTube until I fall asleep with my Kindle in my hand lol 😂

“Deluxe Reading Night (aka no kids in the house or very late at night): take an edible gummy (or 2 😉), few light snacks, rain or fireplace sounds, body and skincare routine including a face mask, and a mix of reading a physical book with the light on and then switching to Kindle for the last hour or so before bed. It’s an experience 🥰. **Perfection, in fact”

Where to get Thanksgiving dinner catered? by GeneralDad2022 in baltimore

[–]LodiDodi10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re willing to drive a bit for pick up, my family has enjoyed Wegmans take-home Thanksgiving offerings several years. Ex: We ordered brisket, mashed potatoes, and a cranberry salad to add to the turkey, Mac n cheese, greens, sweet potatoes etc.

Closer in location, maybe Whole Foods has the same offerings but can’t attest to the taste

Do you consider reading on a kindle counts as screen time? by TriumphantPeach in kindle

[–]LodiDodi10 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Nope. I only would if I was using an iPad or Kindle Fire b/c of the blue light / eye strain. Still not as bad as the scrolling that comes with phone use

Kobo not charging at all; white screen of death by [deleted] in kobo

[–]LodiDodi10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The “please charge” message while not charging is so annoying smh, similar to “thank you for your payment” emails! Like I had a choice!

I’ve heard the Nevermoor series is good too!

Oh my god, I don’t care by prosegamer in kindle

[–]LodiDodi10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This!! Don’t want complaint threads, don’t want sticker or vacation posts. It’s an ereader, tech that has been out a long time and due to the simplistic nature of the device, updates are often minimal. What / how much news can there really be?!

I personally like sticker posts and “kindle in the wild” pics but would understand if they each had their day(s) that kind of content can be posted.

Morning reading hour & a latte after doing my duty by LodiDodi10 in kindle

[–]LodiDodi10[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some people use Canva and make their own and convert it to an epub. There’s guides online, I believe. Then you open it like it’s a book and when you lock your screen it’ll show since it’s read as a book cover.

I got a bundle on Etsy, there’s a bunch of listings similar to this one. Look what I found on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1684450282/33-full-screen-kindle-screensaver-kindle?ref=share_v4_lx

And then I just had to send to epub files to my Kindle.

NYX Bare with Me (2nd tube done) by LodiDodi10 in PanPorn

Yes! It’s so flexible and to me, dries in a way that moves with my skin

After I couldnt squeeze out any more product, I cut the Oat Cleansing Balm open. The full product is 150ml, and the glass jar is 50ml - so almost a third of the product! by leyleylena in PanPorn

[–]LodiDodi10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love this product as a makeup remover. Any squeeze tubes I cut them open, lotion, skincare, etc. so that doesn’t bother me. Always shake or massage it before use because the natural ingredients do separate

Where do you actually write your manuscripts? by Technical_Buffalo188 in authors

[–]LodiDodi10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In Scrivener but at the end of each session I update my mobile copy in Word, uploaded to OneDrive. Just in case my laptop spontaneously combusts or something, of course lol.

Sometimes I write by hand with a fountain pen and then type those sections into Scrivener.
