phineasjonesmmmdinner. linguine with leeks and artichokes. a new recipe and definitely a keeper. ::rubs tummy::
speaking of tummies. it may just be a sign of my impending 30th birthday, but i honestly do not think the ultra low rise cut looks good on anyone. certainly not on me, as there is a sort of roll around the tummy and sides that pops out over the top of the jeans. not flattering, no. but i don't think even the super-skinny look good in them. can pull them off, maybe, but good? this is clearly a matter of opinion.
that thought brought to you by a brief trip to old navy this afternoon (had time to kill between buying groceries and picking up rach). i actually found some jeans there. they are low rise (not ultra) and they are not stretch! yay. stretch jeans may seem like a good idea for those of us with tummies but in fact, they lack the structure required for a flattering look. but most jeans out there right now are stretch, so i feel lucky to have found this pair.
i didn't get much done today that wasn't cooking or shopping. i think i will choose not to mind. i'm now going to go to the airport to pick up rach's friend because rach is crazy busy with schoolwork and i want her to get some sleep tonight and hey, i'm not practicing for an audition or anything, so why not?
also, i got great mail today. my state income tax refund (filing early rocks!) and a letter from my delinquent recommender assuring me that he sent the recommendation last thursday and all is well. this is very, very good. ::smiles::
