Take a Dip

July 5th, 2009 by Karen 9 Comments

A fountain in front of a winery in Napa, California. I had one too many glasses of vino when I took this picture and can’t remember the name of the winery… oops.

    This is a beautiful photo, Karen!

    If only I could have alcohol. My mom tried giving me a tablespoon of wine (she measured it, I kid you not) and I was already tipsy. One adult dose of Nyquil makes me positively piss drunk and I had the low-alcohol version. My mom gave me one dose of the stuff when I had an 104 degree fever (so I was dizzy as is) and had pneumonia and she had to hold my shoulders and guide me up the stairs to my bedroom I was so drunk! So, even when I can legally drink, I can’t drink. Ha ha ha!

    Hi Kate & Zena,

    Thank you!

    I have a friend who can’t drink alcohol either. She’s sensitive to it, like you, but in a different way. She gets an allergic reaction after drinking — she totally passes out! Now she’s always the designated driver, which I’m guessing will be your role, too, when you go out with your friends. 😉

    Happy Anniversary, Karen! This picture is gorgeous! Our family spent a wonderful anniversary (when my hub and I first met 12 years ago) on the 4th by going to our favorite restaurant in Toledo, Carrabbas. I love italian food, it caters just enough for our 2 young daughters (5 and 8), but it’s still reasonably priced and “fancy” enough to warrant getting dressed up. Came home after for the fire pit on the deck and smores for dessert! 🙂 Sure wish we had places around here such as where you and yours went! Thanks for sharing!

      Hi Nancy,

      Your anniversary outing with your hubby and girls sounds like it was a lot of fun. I bet your lil’ ones got a kick out of getting dressed up and then making s’mores afterwards. 🙂 (YUM!). Congrats on your anniversary, and have a wonderful week!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
