Sinful Colors Olympia

For my current mani, I chose an unlikely color for fall but this green was just calling to me. This is Sinful Colors Olympia. I believe it's one of their newer colors. I picked it up last spring when they had a Greek collection. It is beautiful. The formula is great, this is two coats. Dried suprisingly fast and glossy. This was taken without any topcoat although I did add that later after a few more "adjustments" to this manicure. I will be posting more of those over the next couple of posts. For today, I just wanted to enjoy this color all by itself.

The creamy coolness is practically soothing, isn't it? Like a cup of hot green tea....

In other news, this weekend we hosted one of the more elaborate meals we have prepared since we moved for my husband's relatives. It was a marathon of chopping, frying, sauteeing, simmering and some yelling all day yesterday. And just so we're clear, it was my husband in the kitchen while I did my best to help him out without actually getting in his way. In the end though, we have some large quantities of delicious Indian food that will serve as extra meals for the next couple of days. I just wonder how long it will take for the smell of spices to finally leave the house...
