I saw it yesterday for $2.50/bag. It looked fine, but I don’t like kale.

I went to TJ’s yesterday and spent twice my weekly food budget. I’m not even sorry. They seriously have the best food.

As long as you do your nails in a well ventilated area, you should be OK.

As long as you don’t live in NYC, and you go to a mid-range, reputable salon, I think you’re good.

This is pretty cool. The mom and kid seem pretty well-adjusted and not crazy. I hope I would be like this if my kids got into modeling. But then, when would I have time to take them to the shoots?? :(

Considering that People announced it, like, a month ago... an engagement ring.

I would watch that movie.

IDK where in the OC you are, but FlyGirls in Costa Mesa is run by a former airline attendant, and she’s pretty awesome. Completely on the up and up there!

Technically the Orthodox church was the first Christian church, then you Catholics broke off. :P

In the NYT article, it says that licenses can be faked or sold, so maybe that happens here in CA.

Apparently the pricing is really that different. I pay $45 for a regular and $90 for a gel mani/pedi in Los Angeles... apparently $20 for a regular mani pedi is the norm?? Not sure.

You have to be certified in CA, too.

Exactly! I’ve been going to the same place for years, and I know all the ladies, plus intimate details about their lives. Go to a reputable salon. It will cost WAY more money, but then you’re not contributing to the problem.

I pay $90 for a gel mani pedi, and I usually tip $20. I’m not paying $180. That’s crazy.

When I go get my nails done, I go to a reputable location that’s been around since I was a little girl. It costs about $45 for a regular mani/pedi, $90 for gels. I always tip $10 per worker. It’s worth it to know I’m not contributing to human rights violations. I can’t imagine paying $15 for a mani/pedi.

I had five bridesmaids (three friends, his sister, my sister). Next time, I’m not sure I can pare it down much, since I’ll have an additional sister to put up there. She was a flower girl last time around. But I don’t want to have any parties except for a bachelorette.

There’s a movie coming out in September about her work at the insane asylum.

Zhang Ziyi’s is INCREDIBLE.

It’s pretty hard to pay half that rent on $40,000 year, when you have student loans and a car payment. Because out here, you really do need a car. Otherwise, you’re going to spend a heck of a lot on Zipcar and Uber.

You can find them in Koreatown, Hancock Park, East LA. Basically in the little run-down areas that haven’t gentrified yet. I just left Koreatown, and we paid $1600, but only because my roommate lived there for a decade. They were renting that place for about $2100 after we moved out. Terrible plumbing, no heat, barely…
