I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

hip deep in pie

My feet are calloused like whoa. I'm almost too embarrassed to have a pedicure.

Punishingly Intricate

So pretty, Burrell!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just finished doing my nails for the first time in forever (seriously it's been months!). Ah, they finally look right again. I need to make more time for my nails, CLEARLY.

I am startled at the difference it makes. Just in how I feel. Of course right now they are chipped. But I finally got my toes done and they look fantastic.

My nails are a lovely sage green. I am a bit predictable like that.

Mine are Yara! Which is about the same sage but with gold glimmer. We're very pretty.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm dying to get a pedicure. I suck at doing my own and I have a cheap place right near me, but I haven't gotten one in ages. I get paid tomorrow--maybe I'll treat myself after work.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My feet are calloused like whoa. I'm almost too embarrassed to have a pedicure.

Me too. I need to just give myself one, I have everything I need except the actual making it happen spark. I know I will get a boost from softer skin and color on my toes.

Lime cordial update that I know you have all been waiting for: that additional 24 hours made an enormous difference. I don't know how that works, but it definitely does - after the second day of resting the increase in deliciousness is amazing! I finally bought gin (and cherry vodka for Stephtinis) today (buying two bottles of gin, one of vodka, and some cheese at 10am on Sunday is apparently my lifestyle now) and both the Hendricks and 209 make pretty awesome gimlets. Yum.

I have!

I don't know how that works

Chemistry!

I'm not used to thinking of time as an important variable in chemical reactions, but I guess it is.

I may need to try the gins with a more neutral mixer to be able to differentiate between them (or figure out what I like in a vermouth. Or both!), but that will have to wait for another day. I am a lightweight.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

love the cocktail updates, -t!

Mine are Yara! Which is about the same sage but with gold glimmer. We're very pretty.

You will laugh, but that's the other color I was considering. But since I wore it the last time I wore the dress I'm wearing tonight, I decided to try the Gemma. Plus it was just so perfect for Spring, and I did my nails sitting by the roses in the front yard.

It certainly is. Fermentation is totes time related. Also, just from cooking many flavors change overnight in the fridge. Today's chili does not taste like tomorrow's chili.
