A Little Naughty...

I just got finished painting my toenails black.  A deep blue-black that I love.  It just reminded me that while visiting NC a few months ago, my mom looks at my nails aghast and asks, "Are you wearing BLACK nail polish!"  Umm, yes, yes I am... What in the world was that about and why is my older sister looking at me in horror?  And then I remember-- I am not allowed to wear BLACK or CHERRY RED nail polish!  Why?  Because black is for s*t*n worshippers and red is for harlots of course!  How funny that I forgot this unspoken "key" to nail polish colors :)  So today, despite my mother's best efforts to raise a good girl, I am being a little rebel and loving my trendy black toes!

My friend wears it on her toes too, and I have to say, its not as awful as it sounds!

Hilmice -- shame on you and bless your mom's heart. Spoken from a true, fellow southener.

Girl, you are more then just a little naughty. I never had a desire for black toe nails but red or french is my cup of tea. may you have a blessed weekend. Love Roxy
