Living in Connecticut, the winter is long and cold.  Therefore, toes are covered, in socks and boots, usually.  Come spring, when the flowers start to bloom and the birds start to chirp, it’s time to take the socks off and wear open toe shoes. 

I don’t generally like my feet to be touched.  I think they are pretty ugly, for feet.  However, about six years ago, when I was largely pregnant with Molly, a dear friend of mine convinced me to treat myself to a pedicure.  Since then, I have gotten monthly pedicures from April through October. 

I’m generally not a very “fancy” or high maintenance person.  I don’t wear a lot of make up, I don’t sport trendy fashions.  But no matter what I’m wearing or where I’m going, my toes will be RED. 

For those of you interested, the color is made by OPI, and is called “The Thrill of Brazil”. 

Today was my season opening manicure.
