So Friday, I went to the The Aveda Institute and got a and a and pedicure. (That mani photo shows off the ring I got at Lazarus' closing sale too! Grandma's always said I should be a hand model.)

And the yarn loot:

And the knitting projects. (These are all links -- I'm too lazy for all these lj-cuts)

The before shot of my slippers (from Knit One, Felt Two, in Lamb's Pride.)
B's birthday purse That's On the Moon from knitty.com in Lana Grossa Dito Print.
automat76's birthday purse (no pattern, just a rectangle with a YO buttonhole, and an I-cord strap, in Bernat Ping Pong, which was a fun yarn.)
And the piece de resistance, the in-progress photo of the afghan!!!

Glad to see the smile...been a while to see a recent smile photo of you...and yes, the hands would win any runway hand-model competition... HANDS DOWN!

Thanks! The color needs touched up, but that photo hides my roots!!! :-)

Thanks!

I think the only reason my hands look okay now, is that in junior high, I was determined to have better looking hands than my best friend (we were highly competitive) so I was constantly giving myself manicures -- this was my first time for having someone else do it for me though!

Ha. I have a hard time taking smiling photos of myself. My contacts make me blink when the flash happens, so I tend to look like I'm winking, or have a weird crooked expression.
