the pit & the peak link-up

I live for link-ups! 

Lately, I have been fuelling this blog with only link-ups. 

It gives me a reason to write....

Thanks Jen and Allie for creating this link-up.

The Pit

It is a toss up between not having my Bidou home all week. He has been in Perou and he will be in San Diego all next week for business. Or the fact that I only completed my 10,000 daily steps once this week. I am blaming it on the freezing weather.

The Peak

Actually, the peak will be hapenning this evening. I am meeting my friend Christine after work for a Spa evening at Spa Nordik. 

A hot spa, a massage and some relaxation is on the menu for this evening.

Wishing all of my blogging friends a great weekend!

My love for pedis!

I do NOT consider myself high maintenance but I do love spoiling myself by going often to the spa for facials, pedis, for some waxing and massages. However, as for my hair routine, it is a necessity to get my roots done every 4 weeks... I NEVER leave the salon without having my next hair appointment scheduled.  It is a must... Oh the joys of being forty!!

My go-to spa is Studio 157.  They are a well reputated spa in the Ottawa-Gatineau area and I LOVE going there.  The beauticians are all so friendly and I swear that their mission is to cater to your every need.  An arm/hand massage while getting a facial or a hot towel around your feet after a pedi. I say why not!! If you are in the Ottawa/Gatineau area... please check them out Studio 157... you will not be disappointed!

I love getting pedis.  I love to look down and see my beautiful pedicured painted red nails sticking out from my flip-flops. For some reason my hand nails can look like sh*t but during the summer months my toe nails must be immaculate. If I could afford it, I would get a pedi every other week all year long but since I live in a 4 season climate, my toes are usually covered with warm socks 8 months a year. 

Last Sunday was my last pedi of the summer...

So long beautiful feet.... will see you sometime next May!
