things i want to tell you

It's warm here today. Springlike. I'm wearing flats without tights. At this rate, tomorrow will find me in my bathing suit.

Yesterday I saw this adorable post on pugly pixel about glittery confetti nail polish, and when I found myself quite unexpectedly at Ulta later in the day and spied something similar, I grabbed it.



I painted one nail this morning, squealed with glee, and then painted all of Emma's nails. Because c'mon, confetti nail polish?



It's like my thumb is having a party and no other fingers were invited.

Should we continue talking about nail polish?

I thought the confetti would look fantastic layered over this shimmery polish I bought specifically for holiday festivities but never got around to putting on... but I do have a party to go to on Saturday night...



I also grabbed these two beauties, and I'm thinking alternating fingers with these two colors will look adorable:



Now, onto food. Today, I had both strawberries AND blueberries in my cereal. It was quite patriotic.



And coffee in my new favorite mug that I picked up at WDW last year.



She just needs some bags under her eyes and it would be PERFECT.

More food? Sure thing.

For dinner at a friends' house last weekend, I wanted to do a fun dessert for the kids and a Valentine-themed dessert for adults. I then proceeded to lose every remaining bit of sanity I once possessed.

Witness:







Yes. That IS candy sushi. The last picture is blurry because all of my nerves were shot to hell at that point.

The next day, I made the biggest, ugliest cake ever:



It was neapolitan. Because I'm insane.



Fin.
