Girl's Weekend
Well, as promised, I am reporting about my "Girl's Weekend" with my friend Kira.
We had a great time and a wonderful spa experience although as you can see from this picture, I managed once again (actually this is the third time) to have the oh so delicate skin below my eyebrows ripped off. OUCH. We determined it can in no way be my fault, and therefore, I should probably just stop having
brow waxes. Ever. Clearly, my skin does not like it. This picture doesn't even do justice to how red and raw my skin looks. But, the heated hand and feet mitts during the facial just about made up for the skin ripping incident.
Despite losing all feeling in the eyebrow area, I still managed do some serious damage shopping. Husband was smart enough to keep his mouth
shut since he's going on his annual Guy's Golf Trip next weekend. HA - what great timing for my friend to come visit you say. Ah yes, all part of a carefully executed plan I say. :)
It was wonderful to just spend time talking with a good friend. We also managed to drink a few martinis. We always try out a new one each time we visit each other. This visit's martini was so successful I have to share the recipe:
Pomegranate Martini
1 1/2 cups of Pom juice
2 oz. Absolut Citron
1 oz. Cointreau
Juice of 1/2 a lemon or lime

Hey, your from Columbus as well! Don't ya just love our weather...heehee!
That brow pic doesn't not look pleasant! And that's why I don't get my brows waxed, ever! :-)
Btw, Wendy directed me here today!!!
That's a great picture...despite the fact that there are no martini's in it!
OUCH!! No more eyebrow waxing for you! That truly made my eyes water just looking at it. Of course enough of those martinis and you'd be thinking, "What eyebrows?" lol Glad you ahd such an awesome time!
"oooh martinis", says my sidekick. But you know I heard gin can make you mean so watch out!!!

I LOVE pomegranite martinis. They are incredibly tasty.
Ok that looks like it hurt !
Hi David, I did read all the Anne of Green Gables books when I was younger and absolutely loved them. Definitely one of my favorite series. I could really relate to Anne who never thought she was pretty enough (remember when she dyed her beautiful hair black and it turned green?) or smart enough, etc...
