I just had to follow up last night’s Itty Bitty Burgers with a Fingernail Friday to keep the fun going! I know I skipped a few weeks, but it’s for good reason: after months of doing my nails twice a week, the novelty wore off. I went and got a shellac manicure which lasted two [...]

In preparation for the upcoming holidays, I hosted a nail art club meeting at school on Tuesday. We all did something slightly different, but there was a definite theme: Some of us did Santa jackets Some of us did Winter and Christmas scenes And some of us did Christmas lights! I’m currently rocking an extremely [...]

It’s official. I’ve lost my mind and have spent altogether too much time on my nails. I discovered an online nail art store called the Born Pretty Store, and they have some of the most adorable and creative things for nail art. I’d seen it linked all over the nail blogs that I stalk incessantly, [...]

TGIFF! (Thank Goodness its Fingernail Friday) Ok, who am I kidding, it’s just a normal TGIF around here! It’s been a week full of good food… did you see the pasta with vodka sauce I made for our anniversary and the South Beach Diet shepherd’s pie? No? I’ll wait… Fingernail Friday is a little extensive [...]
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! We had the first of THREE Thanksgiving meals yesterday, and I’ve been excited to share these photos with you all since I took them! We met at Eo’s house in the early afternoon, and as always, were greeted with warm hugs and amazing smells coming from [...]
I’m seriously far too excited to share these pictures with you of the nail art I’ve done this week. I’m pretty sure that when I did the second one, Adam even said “that one will be great on the blog!” With Thanksgiving coming, I have a ton of great recipes to share with you all, [...]

My love for nail art appears to have taken my students by storm! Just about every day, a different student walks into my room and shows me the creative nail art she’s come up with. Some are definitely more remarkable than others, and I got permission from the girls to post their nails here. Another [...]
It was one week ago that I figured out I was hacked when, much to my dismay, I went to post a link to Fingernail Friday and instead posted an ad for accutane. Not a fan. Anyway, I realized that none of you had seen my fingernails from last week (¡que horror!) and I have [...]
I very rarely make gluten-free treats. Ok, that’s not completely true. I make gluten-free food all the time, just not for the sole reason of it being gluten-free. I don’t have any sort of gluten intolerance, nor do I toy with cutting out gluten for the sole reason that it’s “trendy.” However, as many of [...]

So it’s 1 pm. I’m sitting in a restaurant waiting for my mom to get here… I could get used to this!! After two extremely long days of parent teacher conferences, we had a short day today to kick off a long weekend! We got out at 11! Speaking of conferences, I thought I should [...]
