Happy Friday! Because my gel polish lasts for quite awhile, OPI’s Live.Love.Carnaval is on my nails again this week (it’s getting taken off soon though!).
The grow out line is definitely pronounced at this point, but for anyone more than 2-3 feet away, you can’t tell that there’s any grow out. It’s weird to have my nails so long though. I normally cut them every week, but it’s been three weeks since they’ve been cut now (and they can’t break because of the polish!). I haven’t gotten sick of this color at all in the last 3 weeks, and still think it’s absolutely beautiful!
Here are a few random facts from the week:
1. Last Sunday Melissa and I went to Barnes and Noble, and spent about 30 minutes walking around the store adding titles to our Goodreads accounts. I added almost 30 books to me “want to read” shelf, and I can’t wait to tackle them all this summer! If you have a goodreads account, leave your link in the comments and I’ll follow you!
2. Everything about this weekend was fantastic! On Friday I worked at the nuun table at the Indy Mini expo, on Saturday I had an awesome half marathon race, sat outside in the sun for a few hours reading, and had a cookout/fire with friends, and Sunday Melissa and I ate breakfast outside, went to Barnes and Noble, I finished a book (“All The Light We Cannot See”) and enjoyed the beautiful flowering trees. My windows were wide open, the sun was pouring in, and it was a very pleasant 75 degrees. I loved everything about it.
3. This past weekend I made shredded chicken for the first time. I cooked chicken breasts with salsa verde on top, and while they were still warm, I shredded the chicken using two forks. SO easy and it will be delicious on quesadillas this week (YES, I know… I’m still stuck on Mexican food and I’m not sorry about it).
4. I’m STILL peeling from Mexico, along with most members of our team. That Mexican sun did a big number on us, clearly… At least mine seems to be slowing down now, and I think all the aloe lotion I’m dumping on my arms and legs is helping.
5. The grocery store had blackberries on sale so I scooped up a few containers. Look how huge they are! They are so juicy and delicious, and I could eat them for dessert every day.
Now it’s your turn to share! Tell me one random fact from your week!
I’m currently reading “All The Light We Cannot See”, and it is excellent. Extremely well written. I’m only about 80 pages in, but I’m really enjoying it. I highly recommend!
Haha I just realized that you already finished this book. Yay, for me paying attention! Glad you enjoyed it
HAHAHAHA- that’s totally fine. I didn’t LOVE it like I thought I would, but it definitely got better (I thought) as it went along. I liked the second half more than the first half!
I love that Goodreads has a scanner. I too will wander just scanning stuff.
It makes the app SO useful! How do I find you on goodreads?
