Yes, it's another rainy day in Georgia (not complaining). This morning after working out (whimper, whimper) one look in the mirror at my "wet dog" hairstyle scared the heck out of me. Heaven only knows what the folks at the coffee shop thought this morning.  I am truly a product of the 60's/70's when it comes to hair --  teasing and spraying are my weapons as I try to get that stuff up high and keep it there. Of course, I don't want any of the natural curl to show either. With the humidity in Georgia, no matter how high it is when I leave the house by the time I get to work I look like a chia pet again, so it's sort of a waste of time. I'm a little person and I need that big hair to balance my butt size. And, hey, I've learned another trick. Tying your sweater around your shoulders (OK, I know that was the style last year, but it still works) also helps but unfortunately, if you drape it around your shoulders you can't drape it over your butt so it's not a total win/win. This morning I opted for the drape over butt look (wearing the long sweater) since I have on tighter pants than usual (the result of all the steak Wednesday night). It's just a never ending battle, isn't it? Especially when you're 25 (X 2 + ???) and really just want to stay home in your jammies and hobby all day.

I signed the papers on the Serenbe lot this morning. Everyone says lot 45 is the best. . .of course. But, I really do think it's a neat lot. I just got an e-mail from The Cook's Warehouse (my favorite place) that the 5th Annual Dinner on the Grounds will be held there. This is the Atlanta Chapter of the Les Dames d'Escoffier International annual fundraiser where Atlanta's best chefs create. We may have to do the kid's halloween party that day -- just too many things to cram in.
