Right now I am knitting...

Flashback Friday #5

Aug 17, 2012

California

My sister challenged me last week to only post photos taken on Fridays for Flashback Friday. I was down until I realized that most of my favorite photies were taken on Saturday nights in my kitchen with my girlfriends.

It’s been a little while since I was blond and just when I was starting to miss it, the California sunshine has started lightening my hair quite a bit. I am on as long a break as possible from damaging my hair, but with any luck (and many hours poolside and at the beach) my hair will be light without any chemicals.

PS – next week new recipes!
