~I Like Mike~
I like guys named Michael McDonald....Granted, I only know two, but I like them both so I'm kind of assuming it's the name I'm attracted to....
I like this one....
You probably know his music...he's been around for years.....
But I am in love with this one....
Ok...I know this is Stuart Larkin and his mother....but Stuart's alter ego is Michael McDonald....
There's nothing sexier about a guy than a sense of humor....and great abs....and a fat wallet...I digress...I think this Michael McDonald (who is 6'3" by the way..) is one of the funniest men on the planet....so that makes him a super hottie in my book....

~Tan Plan~
Ok, I am a very fair skinned girl living in the pits of hell (aka AZ). I would love a little bit of golden color so the locals don't mistake me for some tourist. I'm looking for a really good self tanning cream. I've not had great luck with these in the past. Here's a photo of my last encounter with a self tanner....
I'm the one just to the right of Willy Wonka's hat...(ahh...those were good times....) Again, I digress....Got any suggestions??? I don't want to be oompa loompa orange (been there, done that) and I want my palms to remain their natural color....Thanks in advance for any help!

~Confession: I have a crack problem....~
I never thought I would have the courage to come forward and say this to anyone...not to mention broadcasting it over the entire interwebs....but there's so much awesome support on the blogs, that I felt I could finally come clean...Deep breath....here goes...
Over the last couple of months, I have developed deep cracks in my heels. (Before you commence gagging, hear me out...) As a desert dweller, I am in flip flops 90% of my day. I haven't had time to treat myself to regular pedicures (although now I'm just too ashamed to step "foot" (snort) into a nail salon for rehab. (Yes, I'm one of those people who do my nails before going to get manicure, etc...) So what to do??? I don't want to waste my money on heel crack creams if they don't work. I do actually take the time to slap a coat of polish on my toenails and keep my feet looking decent for the most part...My Pedi-egg just isn't cutting the mustard here. The cracks get smoothed away for a few days, then BAM! they reappear...Any advice would be most welcome!

~Here Comes The Judge~
Another confession...I am a movie snob....Case in point...When Disney Pixar's WALL-e came out, I told the kids there was no way we were going to see it...it looked dumb...(yes, they called me out and pointed out that I was being judgemental...) I stuck to my movie snob guns and we didn't see it. I refused to spend my $5 on the dvd rental when we saw it at Blockbuster a few months later. However, Catherine found it at the library the other day (can you say "FREE"?) so I succumbed.
Guess what? I WAS WRONG! It is a fantastic film! Catherine loved it and so did I! I especially love the "Hello Dolly" music they weaved into the movie. I have been humbled by a stinkin' cute robot. No longer will I judge a movie with my snobbery. Thank you, Wall-e!

~Frozen Candy Bars~
Summer is not complete for me unless I chow down on some frozen candy bars. This habit started for me back in the 70's at our local pool. I would spend the day at the pool and hit the snack bar for a frozen Charleston Chew at lunch time. Everytime I eat a frozen candy bar, it takes me back to those awesome summer days, and I can still smell the chlorine, the snack bar goodies and feel the warmth of the sun on my very sunburned skin. Got any favorite summer candy memories?
(I also love frozen Snickers and Milky Way bars too...yummmmmy....)
Speaking of frozen treats, these make me wax nostalgic for summers past as well...they are deadly creatures, however....I can't eat just one.....
Well, that about wraps it up for this edition of Friday Fragments at the Bee and Rose today! I know you are exhausted (and probably ready for a sugary treat) now that you're all done here!
Have a fantabulous weekend and don't forget to join the Friday Fragments Fun over at Half Past Kissin' Time!

Say no to crack.
I'd rather have cracked hills than orange fake tans. :)
You are so funny.
I have a coke addiction (coca cola!)
hehehe
Happy Friday!
Jamie :)
And I have frozen candy! My husband always puts chocolate in the fridge, and it's always hard as a rock!
Look for Flexitol foot balm in the diabetes foot care section. Works wonders.
Clinque has a GREAT sunless tanning lotion. No Oompa Lompa.
Love Wall-E the boys watch it over and over ... LOL
Oh frozen Charleston Chews you my dear I knew were my sister! And then you say the other magic one Strawberry! Yup twins!!!
Congrats on all the awards! Muah!
anyhoo.....I understand the tight ab...fat wallet thing...
I've heard great things from the "spray tan" booths. Well, there was that episode of "Friends" where Ross didn't understand the directions and when to turn! Had too many # 4's on his front side :) I'm giggling just recalling it!!! Check that out at the library too! Or request them :) I LOVE the library and usually reserve my dvd's there. I'm patiently waiting for Season 1 of "True Blood". Can't wait :)
Geez...............I've really rambled on! Happy Friday and I hope that Chilly has a lovely 2nd Father's Day ;)

I also LOVE Stewart! The best act on Madd tv!
Feet-I've started taking fish oil pills, because I've been told they help with dry skin. I'll let you know how that goes. (so far, so good, though!) Also, I was just told that an Epsom salts soak is great for the feet. I'm going to try it one of these days...
Can't recommend any self-tanners, because my in-between-the-toes right now has a little orangy tint after one use of what I bought. Dang!
Good thing you could unload all of these fragments; how did you have any room in your mind?!
Cracked heels. After showering, I take a dry rough towel to them to get rid of the dead skin. Afterwards I use some of the Dr Scholl's intensive heel repair cream. Seems to work on me. I also use it up near the toe cleavage because it gets kinda dry there. Then again, I wear my open toe slippers all day and that doesnt help matters. Udderly Smooth cream is supposed to work really well too.
Mmmmmmmmmm frozen Abba Zabbas!
ooooooooh I loved the Strawberry Shortcakes too!
Seriously though... when working construction cleanup, my hands would dry out so badly that the nail cuticles and thumb lines would crack to the point of bleeding. Regular apps of a thin layer of vaseline seemed the only thing that would work.
Nice friday! :D
And Wall-E was a superb movie! I'm glad you watched it ... I wish I had seen it on the big screen. I think it was really more for adults in many ways! A lovely movie!
hey after living in Vegas for 9 years...I know about dry feet! Something that worked for me...before you go to bed...get a good dry heel cream and lather it on after you scrub your feet...then put on a clean sock, then go to sleep...do this a few night in a row and you should be good....make sure to do this at least once a week there-after...it keeps them extra-moisturized! Hope it helps!
