They really pop with the new blog template, hehehe! I bet the sun makes them look even more spectacular.

The highlights look good! That's funny about your hairdresser, though. Almost every time I've gotten my hair cut at a real salon (not the $10 places I usually go to), the hairdresser always says, "You'd look really good with highlights." It must be their thing.

KBF - Thanks. I was actually wondering whether the highlights had peroxide, but I forgot to ask.

Poppy - it's funny, they look more blond in the sun, red indoors.

DK - I think it makes it more interesting for them, plus, it costs a little more ;)

@Bearette: Oh believe me u would be able to smell it from the bowl that she was mixing up...lol... The guy who colors my hair doesn't believe in using peroxide.. he says u can get the effect w/out it... The gal who did use peroxide on my hair - I think went a bit over board.. My hair ended up having a harsh look as well as the feel of it...

Vegetable personalities

At the risk that you'll all think I'm nuts...but heck. I was getting cauliflower ready for dinner and it occurred to me that vegetables have different personalities. In my mind, anyway. Zucchini: the most agreeable of vegetables. It blends in with everyone, but it's never obsequious or false to itself. Sweet potatoes: the grandmother of vegetables. Very cozy and welcoming. Cauliflower: kind of bland, devoid of personality, but it could surprise you sometimes. Like a dull guy who occasionally tells a funny joke at the water cooler. Broccoli: feisty. Like a terrier. Spinach: kind of dour, but a loyal friend. Kale: has a fierce sense of individuality, but like spinach, is a loyal friend. Kale's affections last for life. Corn: this one is kind of a party animal. Corn is still drinking beer and making a mess when you'd like to be closing up. Tomatoes: a little sloppy. The kind of vegetable that needs to be reminded to tuck its shirt into its pants. Cabbage: not invited t...

Yellow hat

So here is the hat I just finished. It's the first time I've knitted something yellow. I'm also reading a book by Jane Green, called Promises to Keep. Her books are always like a warm bath.

I am...

a certified yoga instructor. Finally! The day started with brunch with TN at Le Gamin. They have one branch at 9th and 21st where it takes them an hour to make French toast (no exaggeration). So we tried their new branch on 15th between 7th and 8th. No wait and the service was much better. TN felt that the bread was weird, which I guess it was, but you can't have everything. Then we saw The Family Stone, the new movie with SJP, Diane Keaton, Rachel McAdams, Luke Wilson, Claire Danes and Dermot Mulroney. I was a little disappointed. It was about SJP clashing with Dermot Mulroney's family. Then there was a switcheroo where people ended up with different boyfriends/girlfriends. The movie made me like Dermot Mulroney less and Luke Wilson better. Luke was probably the best part of the movie. He had a very funny dream about SJP. Then I had my yoga graduation. One of the girls in my mentor group gave us little Hindu god figurines. She gave me and TW Ganesh (a little elephant) and she ...
