Hi everyone. We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays .

Rosie is posing with a book I am currently reading.

Raising Brows: My Story of Building a Billion-Dollar Beauty Empire by Anastasia Soare is really inspiring. I am not up on makeup things, but apparently, she owns a makeup company that sells products for maintaining eyebrows. She immigrated (legally) from Romania in the late 1980’s with her young daughter. Her husband was already here, but it took several years before it could be arranged for them to come here to join him. It took many years, but she was able to achieve The American Dream, and her book is an inspiration to anyone with a dream.

Rosey will be here tomorrow with all the latest.

  2. Mama doesn’t know why she has not mentioned this WONDERFUL book to you, but you really would love Raising Hare about a woman who found a wild hare as a baby and ….do not want to spoil it. So incredibly touching. Do take a look if you have time. And eyebrows….hope they stay around….

  4. I just think of the difficult life people had before and still do today, that their families are separated for years. While one is trying to make enough money to save the family.

  5. It sounds like a good book, but I don’t need my eyebrows maintained. When I had chemotherapy I lost every hair on my body. The hair on my head grew back although rather thin. My eyelashes are little stubby nubs, and my eyebrows few and far between. It does have it’s advantages though, no shaving legs or armpits. The biggest disadvantage though is that too many have relocated to my chin, so that keeps me busy!

  8. Rosie, do you have a dream you are trying realize as well? Our mom reads a lot of biographies and memoirs. She says real life is always more interesting than fiction. XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona & Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Sawyer, Kizmet, Audrey, Raleigh, Gibbs & Tali

  10. Looks like a great read. Books are most wonderful. Rosie is a cutie pie.

    Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Awww Monday and week. Scritches to all the kitties and a big hug to mom. ♥

  16. I love hearing about those who achieve their American dreams! It’s especially awe inspiring when you learn how outsiders who move to our country (legally) who become successful. I think many Americans are so accustomed to all the opportunities waiting to be taken that they are just taken for granted or just don’t bother because they don’t have the drive. That’s really sad.

  17. Good for her! Thanks for sharing this story, and tell Rosie she’s beautiful and I’m looking forward to her news tomorrow.

  18. I have to laugh… at 74 I have maybe half of a brow on both sides… brow gone or gray. I have to put brows on every day. I have her brow compact as small as it is. It works. I am not interested in makeup but I can’t go out without brows 🙂 I want to read about her—tonight when I can’t sleep. Rosie, well done!

  22. Such a serious expression, Rosie. I guess even inspiration can be serious stuff. Thank you for the recommendation.

  23. Charlee: “Our Dada has a product for maintaining his eyebrows! It’s called a ‘shaver’ and he uses it once in a while to trim them when they get bushy. I swear you can hear the individual eyebrows hair plinking into the sink.”
    Chaplin: “Well that’s why his haircut person always used to say things to him like, ‘Do you want me to trim your eyebrows or are you going to hang ornaments off them?'”

    1. Mine are thinning so I don’t have that problem. 🙂 The haircut person he goes to sounds rude.
