New Natter! I am caught up for the first time in 7 months.
I like my house about 77 and with that I sleep undercovers.
77 in our house has DH and I sleeping downstairs in the basement without covers. In the winter the house is usually around 67-68, and the summer we keep the thermostat around 72. For the past week we've been able to keep the windows open and the house around 70. It's been quite nice.
I made baked gnocchi and cheese, like mac and cheese but gnocchi instead of macaroni. ohmygod good.
oh, that sounds amazing. Did you use frozen or cook them ahead of time?
65 is my ideal temperature. It is where my thermostat stays during the day in the winter (55 at night). It is where the thermostat would stay in the summer if my conscience did not insist on 75. (Not 80. 80 would turn by body into one big rash.)
Dana, I love that nail polish color. Pretty.
And speaking of loving nail polish, I'm realizing that the color on my toes is much prettier in this kind of grey, cloudy light than in bright sunlight. When I wore it in summer it looked more charcoal than purple, but today it was a soft plum with charcoal undertones.

It really does and that was my question as well. Unless it was the shelf-stable-y ones. Though I'd still wonder about pre-cooking. Mmmm, gnocchi and cheese baked all bubbly.
My ideal temp (daytime) is 66-74 depending on the season, I think. Definitely cooler at nights.
I'm okay up to about 80 and down to about 62. Part of that comes from having the low humidity, so the heat is not that problematic. And part of it comes from a lot of time in less than ideal conditions, so I've become acclimated to a broader definition of comfort.
Which are you wearing, Burrell? The Yasmeen? I don't have that one but it might be a winter color for me.
I'm wearing Yasmeen on my fingers and Ki on my toes. The Ki is the one that looks so dramatically different in different light. Yasmeen on the other hand is a great one on the hands, period. It's a warm purple.
Hmm, Yasmeen is likely not for me then.
Ki is one of my all-time favorites. But then I love duos and I love all of the colors in it. I put it on my nails and I just stare. Even better if I can do it in light so I can turn them one way and then another and then another.

I know what you mean, Cass. I can't stop staring at my nails and watching the colors shift in the light.
