Soft Foods and Short Hair

Joseph had two of his wisdom teeth removed last week, so he spent a few days on Jell-o, pudding, and macaroni and cheese. I had a bit of fun making him pudding cups!


This one has crumbled Nilla Wafers on the bottom, a layer of chopped bananas, pudding, and cool whip. I stirred the cookies into the pudding and let it sit for a few minutes to soften before he ate it.


In other news, I cut my hair! I donated 10.5 inches to Pantene Beautiful Lengths, which gives wigs to women suffering from cancer.

After:

Naturally curly:

I am very glad to have hair off my neck for the summer! I had been wanting to cut my hair for months, and donating it to Pantene Beautiful Lengths gave me the incentive to actually do it. I like it this length and think it will stay this way for a while!

Tonight I’m looking forward to throwing a small Twilight Zone marathon. Joseph has never seen seen episode! I loved when weekend marathons would come on television–I spent hours on end watching episodes with my dad. My all-time favorite Twilight Zone episode is It’s a Good Life, about a young boy named Anthony who makes people disappear if they don’t pretend to be happy all the time.

So creepy!

    Oh my god, I think that’s one of the few Twilight Zone episodes I’ve seen! Just seeing that picture freaked me out. D:

    I just did the same thing to my hair (for the same reasons!) but I went further and pretty much chopped it low above my ears! I just wish I had thought to donate my hair too…not to mention look into a better mirror while cutting it!! lol I saw that Twilight Zone episode also and it’s pretty scary. :) I watched a lot of the TZ and the Outer Limits growing up. Good stuff!

    Alyssa you are beautiful with short hair, curly hair, straight hair or long hair. You have the sweetest smile and a spirit that matches it. <3
