So Erik of the site Bean Poet commented the other day, and I follered him back to his site. It’s all about coffee! Me love coffee! Me the Cookie Monster of the coffee, me! Is brilliant, Erik’s site. Like, I learned that dark roast has a milder, less acidic taste than light or medium roast. Whoda thunk it?
Well, after Christmas, I was ready for understated nails. And yet. And yet.
My current mani is deceptively simple. It’s Live Love Polish’s Gray Potato (named after a good boi doggo). It’s temperature reactive, so it changes color as I change body heat. Nifty! I stamped silver stars on it with Maniology‘s So Metal stamping polish, using Maniology X Kelli Marissa BM-XL213 plate.
How cool is that??? Way, that’s how!
A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Write about beans. And/or stars. And/or dogs.

December 30, 2019 at 10:36amGood thing they aren’t mood nails! But, I loved the temperature effects.
Oh- and the Ink Spots sang the first jazz song I attempted to learn some 6 decades ago. (Then, it was Leroy Anderson- look him up!)

December 30, 2019 at 1:52pmWhat do you mean, “Then, it was Leroy Anderson”? Do you mean YOU were Leroy Anderson back then, or you learned Leroy Anderson songs back then? If you wrote The Syncopated Clock, I’m even more impressed with you than I was before, and I didn’t think that was possible!

December 30, 2019 at 1:52pmI know! I loaned the polish to Sara, and she says she keeps sticking her hands under the taps to make the color change. lol!

December 30, 2019 at 10:49pmThat’s groovy! Sassy was sorta obsessed with temperature changes when she had hers like that 😛
I actually really like that manicure — nice for NYE! Maybe I’ll send you a pic of mine 🙂 — You’ll get it tomorrow when it comes through! LOL

January 2, 2020 at 5:09pmThanks for the shoutout, Marian. As for your “write about beans” prompt, I think I’m covered. I write about beans in my sleep!
