I’m obviously not keeping up with my resolution this year.
I didn’t have time to do those dishes today. I had many other important things to do.
Like make these cupcakes with my cousin.
And paint my nails this color.
That is OPI Vintage and I died a little inside when it was discontinued. And isn’t my skin just the most gorgeous shade of golden brown? Yeah, I think so too. I’m so tan I can hardly take it.

You need to start filling your bathroom tub with dishes….much more spacious. ;)

I love that color of nail polish! Leave the dishes – they’ll just mess it up :)

Have you checked ebay and such online sites for this nail polish? There might be some stragglers left out there :)

We all know that dirty dishes have WAY more character. In fact, I say you utilize the room under the sink as well. Just don’t tell Mr. How Sweet I suggested it….

You are eight shades darker, and less orange (someone has a carrot problem) than I am.

Haha — obviously you have your priorities down pat. The dishes will always be there waiting patiently for another day. Now you need to go get yourself some pink rubber gloves so you don’t ruin those nails when you do the dishes!! I saw some really cute rubber gloves at the local Dollar Store the other day.

Love that color! It’s gorgeous. Who needs clean dishes, anyway?

Those cupcakes look awesome and the nail color is gorgeous! both of these are obviously more important that dishes! :D

I love that color of nail polish -goes well with the tan for sure ;)

Time spent with family is way more important than an empty kitchen sink. Love the polish.

Meh, don’t worry about the dishes. You freshly painted nails wouldn’t appreciate you digging your hands into hot water and scrubbing.

I haven’t been great at keeping the dishes clean either. But it’s a constant battle. We don’t have a dishwasher, all by hand baby. And I hate it.

We do all ours by hand too, no dishwasher. And my sink usually looks like yours or worse (they tend to overflow to the counter)… I’m horrible at keeping up with the dirty dishes… maybe because it’s no fun! I’d rather be baking than cleaning!

I love nail polish. It is my favorite thing in the world. My hands are long and skinny like spider legs. When I paint my nails, my hands are just WOW. :D

I so want those cupcakes.

My sink looks worse than that ;)

Sounds like you are taking care of the important stuff! :)

That is a very pretty shade!
The thing about dishes is they’ll there until you can get to them tomorrow ;)

We have mastered the art of piling the dishes really high in the sink – take notes.

Sink acrobatics just happens to be something that I am a master of as well… Obviously, why would you do the dishes when you can bake instead?

Those cupcakes are adorable! Sometimes the dishes just have to wait, and painting your nails is the perfect excuse!
Reply
Yup, my sink looked like this today, right before it was time to make dinner.
So. not. fun.

Tanned skin is OUT anyway Jess. I live in Florida and am proud to be pale pale, sunless white. Untanned skin is healthy skin girl. Trust me porcelain is come back.
Embrace it!!! :)

You really do make me “giggle”, sorry it’s a bit hard for me to keep up with all your posts, but I hope you don’t mind me popping in every now and then = )

I love that you pop in every now and then! It means so much to me – thank you so much!

Love the nails…yeah, dont mess them up with doing dishes. That’s just nonsense!

Oh, I hate when mean old OPI disontinues my fave polish colors. Sometimes you can find them brand new on Ebay. I just found my fave there (country club khaki) and it made me so happy I ordered 3 bottles! :)

Hate the sink full of dirty dishes (I’m a neat freak), but LOVE the nail polish! :-)
Reply
We all have days like that, or at least I seem to have many days like that! The dishes can wait, life’s too short, have fun doing what makes you happy! We have more important things to do, right !?!
….Love the color of nail polish!

I hate it when OPI discontinues colors! You should try a new color they have, it’s part of the “Katy Perry” line, it’s called “teenage dream”; it’s pink and when you look at in the sunlight, it sparkles like diamonds! I’m in love with it!

I hate it when OPI discontinues colors!!! I’m sure they have some fab new colors out for spring though!!

nailpolish makes everything better!

My sink has a tendency to look very similar.

Haha! I do love that color nail polish!
