Ate Berries In The Canaries

I have been dying to get a manicure lately, but have just been too lazy (and cheap) to go get it done.
You seem very happy in this post, you must really be enjoying the weather or have fabulous weekend plans, or both!!?? I am headed to VT to sneak in some skiing before the mountains close and the snow is completely gone.

Pick up Essie’s No Chips Ahead. It’s amazing stuff that will keep your manicure in better shape. I guess I’ll have to check out Oasis when we finally move to Boston this summer. 🙂

Loving the nail polish color!!! Have fun at the dog-park! 🙂

Ooooh LOVE that polish color! I’d totally do that one too 🙂 It is a weird name though…..

Have fun tonight!

Tina – Question on the photo resizing since I’ve been having some hosting issues lately. I don’t have Livewriting (mac person) so I’m not quite sure what you mean. Just make them smaller in wordpress? Or completely save them in Iphoto smaller?

haha i always do my own nails because I always manage to destroy them instantly! I love the color though!

Are you doing 12.5 tonight? I can’t wait to hear about it.

One of the reasons I never to bother getting a manicure is that it chips within a day! I love a good pedicure though and will gladly indulge on a trip to the spa to have pretty toes for a few weeks.

I got my nails and toes done today too! I love the polish, but I honestly love getting all the cuticles treated more than the polish!

I think all OPI colors have weird names, but they hold up pretty well and always have cool shades. The diamond dust collection is my fave!

I’m so hesitant to get manicures because I always manage to chip the paint within 5 minutes of getting my nails done. Maybe I should try shellac? Pretty color though! Random, but I think I’ve heard there is actually a place called the Canary Islands, so maybe they have berries there?! haha

Hi. I just discovered your website/blog from Pinterest. Your recipes look delish. I’m following a gluten free, (grain free) as much as I can, sugar free, etc..Paleo way of life and am loving your recipes. I look forward to checking out your site a little more. My parents have Pug too, so I love your photos of your little guy.
Have a wonderful day
Marianne

i was just at oasis AND the dog park yesterday what a small world!

Yay for weekends with beautiful weather!! Hope you have a great one! 🙂

Thanks for the reminder I need to cash in a gift certificate for a mani/pedi. My nails look horrendous thanks to washing my hands 300,000 times a day at work. Plus, my poor little running feet could use a nice scrub and buff!

I just posted a bunch of photos on my site today (just had too many cute ones from my “cheeseburger” cookie project I did with my little nephews!: http://lifewithcheeseburgers.com/2012/03/23/cheeseburger-cookies-perfect-kid-project/)…so the whole space thing is something I’ve been thinking about lately too! Arrgh…

Ooo… today just feels like the perfect day for a manicure. and I love that color!! beautiful!!! have fun!

ha! that is quite the strange name for a nail polish color, but you’re right, it’s super pretty! perfect for spring! enjoy your friday evening!

I just got a manicure yesterday and it was so nice. On a separate note, I just arrived in Boston and I already love it! Gorgeous! 🙂 Now I see why you love running here so much.

Your wedding rings are so pretty.

LOVE Dr. Praegers veggie burgers! I think its one of the best ones you can buy cause all the others are so processed and full of weird stuff! Your rings look beautiful! 🙂

Annnnd now I’m craving an orange 🙂 And a manicure

Aw, your nails look BEAUTIFUL. I should really go paint my toe nails; my feet are in no shape for flip flops. Yikes. Enjoy your weekend!

Yay for Friday! Pretty nail color… OPI is great!

Are the Dr. Praeger’s veggie burgers your favorite brand? I have tried several but never Dr. Praeger’s. Usually Amy’s, Gardenburger, etc.

I just started up my blog…what do you recommend resizing the photos too?

Love the nails and LOVE Dr Praegers. It’s a staple in our house, especially since it’s a great way to get my daughter to eat her veggies. Never tried it with buffalo sauce though…hmmm.

Love the hot pink color! My nails don’t grow very well…nail envy! Have fun outside with the pug and enjoy the sunshine!

Great polish color…weird name! Most of OPI’s names are funny…I wonder whose job it is to name them!?!

Thanks for the heads up about the pictures!

I love all the OPI names!

Tina – I’m having Murphy withdraw. I miss seeing photos of the little man. Not that your nail polish color and name isn’t to die for – it is! But for a while, you were posting cute pics of Murphy almost daily and my husband and I logged in every day to see what he was up to. LOL

If nail polish lasts on my nails for more than 2 days then I am doing good. It never fails- I’m always rocking the chipped nail polish look.

Just out of curiousity, do you have Photoshop? If so, you can create an action to resize all of your photos for you. No sitting all day clicking away! Shoot me an email if you have Photoshop and need tips! 🙂

I think the name of the polish is cute and it makes sense. It’s a tropical, more neon berry color. Hence, eating berries in the Canary Islands.

A lot of my photos weren’t resized when I first started blogging and it’s really annoying now because those pages load soooo slowly. I’m trying to go back through old posts and remake recipes so I can update the photos – with a smaller image and one that looks better. It’s going to be a long process!!

Happy Friday!

You have small nail beds like me. Actually mine are even smaller. Your mani looks nice.

I just love Dr. Praeger’s products. Love the veggie burgers but can’t eat them often because they are processed in a facility that also processes wheat but they told me their sweet potato one is completely gluten free so meaning to try that.

Hey Taylor- love your blog name!

Thanks for the heads up about re-sizing photo’s I think I make mine way to big!! Looks like a fund day and Happy Friday!!!

I loove getting manicures but I am always so stressed out on the first day about chipping a nail hehe!

I did a post about apple cider vinegar a few months back. I love it!

I love Dr. Praeger’s!! I just discovered it last month–I’m pretty much obsessed now.

Nail polish color is pretty too! My nails are looking pretty shabby lately I might have to find that color!

I always ruin my manicures the day I get them! That’s why I’ve given up on manis and just go for pedis these days. 😛

Its “ate berries in the canaries” like the canary islands… Ate berries there… Duh.

Cute color on the nails. So summery/spring. Its already summer weather here in Florida, so I just painted my toe nails that color the other day! If you don’t mind me asking what does an edamame taste like? Never heard of it.

[…] a bunch. I can always eat sweet potatoes! Oranges were also on sale, so I bought another one after eating a really delicious one for lunch last week. Blue Diamond Original Unsweetened Almond Breeze (NuVal score: 91) was on sale […]

Great nail color! If you think that’s a weird name, how ’bout this: I had a pedicure, and decided to try an abnormal color, so I chose a dark green. (What was I thinking?) The name? OPI’s ‘Oh no! roll Down the Windows!”
