Yummy Mummy

One of the Australian fashion magazines, Madison, included a free Butter London nailpolish with the December 2011 magazine. I snagged the one with Yummy Mummy. It has the color of ashes of roses, which is an old color name for a pink taupe color. It reminded me of the color my new hybrid rosebush (yes I am a dork) named Julia. For those who are a bit older..ahem...it also reminded me of the dress that Maggie wore in the Thornbirds movie.

Sunday Safe Nail Polish

While all of the Northern Hemisphere is cozying up to the dark and ruby colored nail polishes, here in Australia the summer colors are revving up. I call this OPI Butterflies nail polish, Sunday safe because it won't shock the grey hair ladies on Sunday.

A Highland Hour

A few weeks ago I took Boo Boo to the Scottish Highland Festival in Australia. Good times were had for all and my son left loving the bag pipes.

Nailpolishes inspired by the plaid.

I snagged a piece a jewelry as a souvenir.

Food we avoided.
