I wear sleeveless styles, especially in the evenings, all year 'round: I think the look is elegant and feminine, and honestly? I love my tattoo, and I like wearing things that leave it visible.

Surprise Date Night #2: Mind Officially Blown

Garlic & Ginger Green Beans
Strip steak marinated all day in red wine and soy sauce; green beans with garlic and ginger.
Just FYI, those green beans make an excellent last-minute side dish. Here's how you make them:
1. Blanch the green beans in boiling water for about 2 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat a little oil in a large pan or wok, and sauté 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger for about a minute.
Just A Little Bit Grey Gardens
When one doesn't really go out all that much, and then suddenly one does get to go out - like on, say, a date night with one's husband where canoodling (!) may occur - it's fun to...you know...dress-up.
And when I dress up, I always like to go just a little bit overboard. LBD and subtly elegant extras? I don't think so. Not now. Not today.
Why? Because it's fun to wear animal print...and glamorous, poofy faux-fur boleros...and chiffon bows...and gold sparkle...all at the same time.
Just fun. That's all.
