This polish color is new, I got it this weekend. Secret Periwinkle by China Glaze 18% of sales goes to Cancer research. I did a small yellow flower. I love how it looked kinda like a plate or pottery. My toes are a fantastic electric teal.
How was your weekend?
I went to my gram's for the weekend up in New Hampshire (and the next few weekends) We had Easter at Gram's house and some how I ended up cooking. People were smart mouthing about the amount of food. My uncle said "what is this war rations gram" I said bluntly.... "I cooked it and I don't ever want to hear this Hillary can't cook bullshit ever again" haaa that shut him up. My dad then goes "YOU COOKED THIS?" and they all ate it and enjoyed it. If pop had been there I would of totally of gotten in trouble for saying that. Ha. I think they all thought the same thing but even my mother in law laughed. I don't think they realized gram wasn't quite up to it all on her own like she usually does. Everyone seemed to like it. I hope not too much or they will make me cook again. It was a spiral ham, roasted potatoes in the oven (sooo good) a pineapple sauce I frankened up and biscuits.
We also went out to breakfast on Saturday which is one of my gram's favorite things to do. We also visited Pop's grave for first time and then got Ice Cream at the stand near the cemetery. Pop ALWAYS stopped there to get ice cream, it was our tradition. The funniest thing of the weekend was yesterday I was showing my 69 year old great aunt my quote in this month's Lucky and she goes "Oh Lucky I subscribe to that!" AWESOME!
and one just because it's funny how I am flapping my arms.

Sounds like a wonderfully family-centric weekend, lady.
just dont fly away on us!
I had an OK weekend. Church was tough because Easter is all about joy and hope and...I'm not there right now. I've sort of lost hope and I lack much joy these days. Mostly I'm stressed. But my church was really kind and understanding about it. Then Nathan and I went home and made BBQ Chicken pizzas and watched too many DVDs, and that was fun.
My weekend kind of sucked. I was supposed to have Friday as a holiday, but instead worked until 3 AM on Thursday and 9 PM on Friday, then spent the rest of the weekend stressing myself into an ulcer. I am going to try and rectify that this weekend, because I am taking Friday off and having a fancy date night with my guy.
I even put him on your mixed cd. AHEM
For serious though, it is one of my favorite Doughty tunes.
I'm so impressed that you cooked a whole Easter dinner. I've never made any holiday/special occasion/big meal before so I find the whole idea incredibly intimidating. I'm sure your Gram was really happy too.
This weekend - shopped, got dressed up and went out to dinner for my fiance's bday, played outside, and got sunburned (grr, my only goal for this summer is not to get sunburned and I already failed).
