Nails of the week: Duri burgundy Charade
1. painting my nails with Duri polish
This week’s color is burgundy Charade — which I pronounce “Sha-RHAD,” emphasis on “RHAD,” because lately the only voice I hear in my head is Moira’s on Schitt’s Creek. Hahaha!
BEBE!
This under-the-radar family-run brand out of Brooklyn is a low-key beast in the best possible way. The polishes are pigmented, smooth, long-lasting and economical (just $8 a bottle). I’ve also been using their top coat and drying drops, and they work terrific too.

SUPER IMPRESSED!

2. Caroline Girvan’s workouts on YouTube
Caroline Girvan’s YouTube workouts are challenging, and she uses very little verbal instruction, so you kinda have to know what you’re doing already, but I sure do love the variety of her exercises.
I’m regularly trying moves I’ve never done before, which I love! challenges ye olde muscles in different ways, ya know?

Also, on days when I can’t manage someone on the other side of a screen yelling at me to dig deep or do one a lot more pushup or whatever, Caroline’s my go-to. Her videos have a short intro where she talks about the workout, but then during the video, all you hear is music and a series of beeps to let you know that a new exercise or a break is coming up while you see her working out on the screen with you.
It’s just me and my breathing, and some days, I like that.
Right now I’m really into her ab and core videos.
3. placing all of my mugs with the handles to the right…
I recently came across this idea in a how-to-organize video, and even though it’s the smallest little tweak, it works wonders! When I do this…my mug shelf looks less chaotic and better organized.
To the right, to the right…
4. speaking of organization videos…
They’re my new favorite how-tos on Youtube. I have a hard time letting go of things and hold onto items longer than I should, and I desperately don’t want to be that person anymore. No a lot more cluttered shelves, baby! Those are my first goals. After that, I’ll do the closets next.
When I enjoy these organizational how-to vids, it feels like I having a personal instructor by my side talking sense into me and telling me that I have the strength to pass on that pair of pants that 1) no longer fit me, and 2) I haven’t worn in five years.
Here are few of my favorites so far.
5. having an electric kettle with hot/warm water always around
Don’t ask me why I’ve always assumed one water had to be cold in buy to be consumed, but it never occurred to me until recently that I could drink water warm whenever I wanted to all throughout the day.
I have an electric kettle on the counter and now just keep it out so that I can get hold of a cup of warm water whenever I want!
Yes, I could easily heat up the water in the microwave, but I vow it tastes different when I warm it up in the kettle.

Speaking of kettles, how cute is this one?
