Sammi's other half is out of town ( and by town, I mean the country) so she invited the ladies over for wine night. We had a wine night a long time ago at her apartment and everyone brought some type of food and we just chatted the night away. It was so much fun, so I am glad she planned another one. And it comes at the perfect time for this reason: I found a new wine that I am in like with. And it's only $9.99. Usually cheap wine tastes a little like acid but this one is deeee-lish.
They have a cabernet, merlot, chardonnay, royalty red, pinot grigio and moscato. I have only tried the pinot and loved it. I tried it at the new bar in downtown Tulsa called Valkyrie and then went and found it at the liquor store. I got the cabernet for Katie and Judy this past weekend and Judy said it was great! So I will be rolling up to Sammi's with some Chateau Julien.
And I plan to make dip. Because drinking wine calls for dip. I plan on making
beer cheese dip. And maybe even this
Snickers salad.
I went to Target on Wednesday after work. I went specifically to get those mint green cords I blogged about the other day. Of course they didn't have my size, but they did have my size in the pink ones. Here's what I picked up at Target:
I read online somewhere that you should always take a red dress on vacation because they look great in photos. I know things sell out pretty quickly at Target so I knew if I didn't buy these things right them, I probably wouldn't have ever gotten them.
If there is anything I love in the world more than buying new clothing, it's finding the perfect lipgloss. And Revlon was usually too expensive for my tastes but I went to Walgreens and took advantage of their buy one get one free sale and picked up two colors:
 |
| Colorburst in Bellini |
 |
| Super Lustrous in Peach Petal |
Now, some sad news to report. My shellac mani only lasted ONE WEEK. I was completely irritated when a few days after I got it, it was already starting to peel off at the top (near the cuticle). And then when I was in the dressing room at Target, the entire left side peeled off of my index finger. I have had 3 shellac mani's in my time. 2 have been crap, and 1 lasted for a little over 2 weeks. I can't decide if I should just go back to the lady that did a great job or just not waste my money at all. But I want my nails painted next weekend for my shower in Pittsburgh and I don't want to have to take nail polish to touch up any chips that inevitably will happen when chasing Kyle through the airport.
Oooh, I love everything you bought at Target: that red dress is so gorgeous! And I love me some affordable, tasty wine: I'll have to check that kind out!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to say that it's refreshing that Revlon is too expensive for your tastes: I'm the same way, I only buy makeup when it's on sale and I have a coupon and it's usually Covergirl or Almay because they go on the best sales!! I'm used to people always blogging about $30 fancy makeup that I definitely would never buy, so good to see we're kindred spirits there! :D
