Free Reshaping It All by Candace Bure

Stressed

    â€¢ Wounded
    Any one of these things can knock you off your game should they remain unchecked. Some of them are easy enough to correct, while others may require some soul searching, prayer, and counseling.

    A recap of Scripture to meditate on:
    â€¢ And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (Rom. 12:2 KJV)
    â€¢ A chord of three strands is not quickly broken. (Eccl. 4:12)
    â€¢ Every matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. (2 Cor. 13:1)

    Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up! (Eccl. 4:9–10)

    Bacon Brussels Sprouts
    Serves 6 to 8
    Ingredients
    12 ounces thickly sliced lean bacon (or turkey bacon), cut crosswise
    into thin strips
    1 Spanish onion, thinly sliced
    8 garlic cloves, halved lengthwise
    2 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
    Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
    Directions
    In a large, deep skillet, cook the bacon over moderately high heat until browned, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain. Pat off excess fat. Add the onion and garlic to the pan, reduce the heat to moderate and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the softened vegetables from the pan and set aside. Add the Brussels sprouts in batches and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown on the outside. Add the reserved bacon and vegetables to the Brussels sprouts in the pan along with salt and pepper to taste. Cover skillet with a lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until sprouts are just tender, 10 to 12 minutes.

    Dressed in Designer Genes
    Looking back at the wardrobe I had on Full House it's hard to believe that many fans considered me a fashion icon back in the day. Yellow scrunched socks, printed oversized sweaters, MC Hammer pants, Doc Martins, and big bangs set the look for DJ Tanner, television's young fashionista. And let's not forget the shoulder pads. From about the age of eleven, I had shoulder pads under nearly every outfit I wore. In fact the wardrobe department had a special pair made for me that snapped onto my bra straps so I could wear them full-time. Why, I'll never know. I could certainly understand wearing them under a blazer, but pajamas and T-shirts with shoulder pads just didn't make sense.
    I've accepted the return of 1980s fashion even going as far as to embrace a pair of leggings of my own, but I still can't bring myself to wear shoulder pads or let a scrunchy enter my house. Can't do it.
    It's interesting to note that people on the Internet are still asking how to style their hair like DJ Tanner. And others, noticing that it went from curly to straight, ask if I curled it every day. Here's the story on the hair: it's naturally straight with a little wave. During the summer before the second season of Full House, I got a perm, so I came to the set with it already curly. Once the perm grew out, I wore my hair straight with bangs that had a lot of volume. Not the standard straight-up 1980s style but a sort of winged shape that covered my forehead. I originally had it styled that way at a swanky salon in Beverly Hills, and taking the style back to the hairdressers on set, we realized they couldn't quite get the same look. So the producers and my mom decided I'd go to the salon in Beverly Hills every tape day morning and have it done there before heading over to the Full House set.
    When I consider Andrea Barber's wardrobe, I really can't complain. Kimmy Gibbler was the epitome of fashion at its worst, and on those rare occasions when the wardrobe department let us dig in and take some of the clothing home, Andrea got
