I live close to a town called Carmel-by-the-sea, and it is very near and dear to my heart. My family has had history in the town for a long time, my Great Grandfather owned a Hotel here when I was young and then sold it to the Marriot corporation. I still feel sick to my stomach when I think about it. My mother and father grew up there and my Mom still works there. I take Ollie to the beach and walk along the darling streets. I recommend that everyone should go and visit this artist town, and enjoy the white sand beach and delicious food.

Polished

My new favorite nail polish. I've gotten so many questions and compliments since I've worn this color. I want to say it's taupe, but then it's also a little grey, and it's different in certain light. Either way this is my favorite nail color, and I'm so glad that it isn't black. I'm getting tired of black nails! Merci beaucoup Chanel.

The Flowers

Photobucket

All the names I know from nurse:
Gardener's garters, Shepherd's purse,
Bachelor's buttons, Lady's smock,
And the Lady Hollyhock.

Fairy places, fairy things,
Fairy woods where the wild bee wings,
Tiny trees for tiny dames--
These must all be fairy names!

Tiny woods below whose boughs
Shady fairies weave a house;
Tiny tree-tops, rose or thyme,
Where the braver fairies climb!

Fair are grown-up people's trees,
But the fairest woods are these;
Where, if I were not so tall,
I should live for good and all.

-Robert Louis Stevenson

I took my dog Oliver on a walk by the creek today, and saw so many flowers around me. I love to pick fresh flowers and put them in my room and let the soft fragrance waft around the room. The morning glory's were absolutely everywhere, and so were the calla lilies. One of my favorite flowers is the Narcissus, the smell is so lovely and they are absolutely adorable. What is your favorite flower?

Bisous!
