Things

1. I don't understand why people are so snobby about chardonnay and why buttery wine is SO BAD. I like it. I DON'T like dry white wine AT ALLLLLLLLLL, which I think makes me less sophisticated than other white wine drinkers.

But for the record, I'd RATHER drink red, but sometimes red just isn't appropriate because of A) the red teeth and B) the weather.

2. The shoes I wore yesterday, as evidenced by yesterday's BPOTD post, are very yellow. I had this conversation at 730 in the morning:

Guy I Work With: Those shoes are yellow.

Me (looking down and admiring my excellent taste): Yeah, thanks, they're new. OH WAIT. You're not saying you LIKE them. You're just making an observation.

Him: Heh. Yeah. Well.

Me: YOU JUST WAIT.

But sure enough, I've had lots of "Wow. Those shoes are yellow" comments but only one "CUTE" comment. (Until I read my blog comments and saw that Sally and Sarah are on board the Yellow Shoe Express with me!) I think that people will appreciate my fashion forward shoes a bit more when it gets warmer and I pair them with one of the three specific dresses I bought them to wear with: Two royal blue and one black & yellow...but I guess the all black with the yellow shoes and teal accessories are too CRAZY for this crowd.

Anyhooters, for anyone who wants to exercise their right to wear yellow shoes whenever the heck they want, those shoes are available HERE.

3. Speaking of shoes, I noticed that I've unintentionally worn brightly colored shoes each day this week. I am now making it my mission to round out the rest of the week appropriately. Today, for example, I'm wearing teal heels. BPOTD pending.

4. I have a problem and it's called saran wrap. Or plastic wrap. Or whatever the heck you want to call it. I am 33 years old but I don't know how to work it! I am envious of people who can get a taut plastic skin over their bowls and platters because I CAN NOT. It's always this limp plastic sheet that's ready to fly off at any moment.

  1. I hadn't noticed the yellow shoes from your previous BPOTD so I had to go back to take a look and I LOVE THEM TOO! I can't believe I didn't notice them before since I'm such a shoe whore. I'm not sure I'd wear them tho - I'm more of a RED shoes gal myself, for some reason...

    I'll also take the time to mention I've noticed you love to wear pretty high heels - these are almost 4" girl! I can't imagine how much you probably tower over everyone else at work. I admire you for that too. ;-)

  3. I am a firm believer that saran wrap trauma come from buying cheap crap that doesn't stick. You need to buy the name brand stuff. We use Glad Press 'N Seal, and while it's the most expensive junk out there - it works. I recommend a test drive with it to cure your saran wrap woes.

  4. YES! What Kristy said. You have to buy the name brand stuff. I am the queen of the store brands except this is one item I just can't do on the cheap.
