It’s been a pretty busy week and a half since I’ve posted anything, and I have so many things floating around in my head at the moment. Sounds like a great time for some random musings.
I painted Juliette’s toes for her first birthday party. I’m sure there’s a danger there due to the toxicity of the nail polish and the chance she could put her toes in her mouth, but I did it anyway. Judge if you must, but it was darn cute! She looked like such a little princess. I ended up taking it off right before her one year check up a few days ago for fear the doctor would yell at me.
Just in case you were wondering, this is what Barbie and Ken would look like planking in yoga class. Hardcore, on fingertips. And if you look closely, Ken is rocking it three-legged! Yes I was playing with them. My kids were around somewhere, so it’s ok. Say, when did Ken get Suze Orman hair? He’s supposed to have plastic hair molded to his head. His underwear is still plastic and flesh colored, thank goodness.
I bought Kale on a bold whim and tried it in a green smoothie. I have heard Kale is not for the weak, so I added as many sugary fruits as I could find in my fridge. Handful of strawberries, banana, blueberries, and I think maybe some grapes. It wasn’t so bad going down but upon finishing, and for about a day afterward, I felt like I had slammed the buffet at Golden Corral. I had no desire to work out, or even get up from the couch really. I’ll spare you the details, but suffice to say I didn’t exactly feel at the top of my game. I’ll be leaving the Kale on my grocer’s shelf from now on. Organic baby spinach and romaine, Mama’s coming home!
Does anyone else have a front door with no peephole, or was it just me? Seriously, who builds a house without one? It’s like call waiting. I would never answer my phone without knowing who was calling, and I’m definitely not opening my front door if I can’t see who’s on my porch. Asking “who’s there” is out – we’ve all seen the old SNL sketch with the shark. I’m not falling for that one! Anyway my dear husband and Father-in-Law finally installed one for me! Yay! Feel free to come by and knock on my door but fair warning, I will be spying on you from the inside and sizing you up before I open the door. Persons carrying gifts or food will be favored.
