that's a stretch. But, OH MY, those are some fine toes! Thursday I received more than thirty minutes of extreme pampering at the nail salon, courtesy of Gina, who was completely shocked that I had never, never had a pedicure. No more selling flowers on the corner, eh, Gov'ner! ~ Thank you again, Gina!~ And my bag is coming along dandy...I'll hopefully have it knitted and lined by Monday. Now I am also drooling over different "lace" patterns. Sandy showed me a beautiful shawl yesterday that I want to do with the Schaefer "Anne" yarn. And Virginia gave me some good pointers as I begin the green "oh-thank-you-Phyllis" yarn sweater. More photos to come!!
More culture shock? I even went to Kabuki for the first time. Poor Mimi had to help me order... totally clueless I am. What FUN! How tasty! I feel like the cultured woman. Is that tragic sounding? Haha!
Yes, perhaps I am a simple girl to a small degree. Perhaps not used to pampering...but I believe I could get used to a little extra "bliss" every now and again!
How about something to chew on?? Here are some other bizarre facts about me:
How about something to chew on?? Here are some other bizarre facts about me:
1. Besides having only my first pedicure, I've only ever had two manicures. Is this really that bizarre??
2. I won't let anyone watch me brush my teeth.
3. Mimi taught me how to knit. Love you, Mi2!

3. Mimi taught me how to knit. Love you, Mi2!
4. I'm a bit OCD about electrical fires and germs...and I particularly like seeing even numerical digits when displayed, like on microwaves, treadmills, etc.
5. Fine cheese, peanut butter, and real cream ice cream are my three guilty pleasures.
6. I despise hamburgers, gum, and spinach. Ewwwww.
7. Most times I feel like an eight year old: half the time feeling obnoxiously giddy and the other half worried that no one will want to play with me.
8. When I was little I believed that if you stuck your finger in your belly button you would unscrew yourself internally. I still don't like touching my belly button, and my husband still likes to freak me out by sticking his finger in his. ICK!!
9. I used to play the guitar and the violin when I was little.
10. I still have my favorite stuffed animals from when I was a child. I can never part with them.
Anyway, sorry it took so long to post. I'll be better, I promise!

Love the toes......and the bag.....and don't worry about being so sweet and innocent. It is one of your most enduring qualities.
i wish i despised hamburgers....
Despise hamburgers? I thought you were a festering headcase before...now...wow, I didn't know your kind existed!
Your so cute Belinda! I agree with Deb in that it is one of your most enduring qualities. Add simple to the long list of why you are awesome!
I think I meant to write "endearing". It's hard to write under pressure.
What pressure are you under, Debbie? Hey, Bel, glad you're hanging low in your house with lots of knives and guns for the next couple of weeks. Good to stay out of trouble...
Haha!! You think? It's all Mimi's fault with that story about the neighbor...I've become paranoid! Yeah, that's the ticket. Paranoid and naive...what a lovely combination. I'm glad she had several of us going on that April Fool's stunt. But I promise, I love animals and won't be mutilating furry little animals anytime in the future. And no crazy neighbors to leave parts outside my window.
Fwowic, wittle wodents and wabbits! Be fwee! Wun awound!
Your toes look great!
I wish I could learn not to like a burger. And gum? interesting.
Looking forward to seeing you again soon1
the pressure to be whitty like you, Gina :-)) You are my idol.
Happy Easter, Belinda.
That bag is so pretty. I love how you put together colors.
