Fun fun fun but busy busy day!!! I’m JUST now getting to blog!! No more 12:26 autoposts for lunch 
After breakfast I did some computer work, then went to the post office to mail in my internship paperwork, then to the bank, then to Target for a few items then to lunch with Miss Red Head Recipes! Lauri just finished her internship yesterday too!
We went to Dean + Deluca for their delicious salads!
Mine had greens, veggies, avocado, olives, capers, blue cheese, garbanozs.
Don’t ask me why customers need TWO GIANT dressing containers!!
I like getting two for the variety, but they were humongous!
Bubbles to drink
I also got a slice of bread for $.25 because I felt I needed some carbs but it was dry and boring and I didn’t eat much of it.
Next stop: I got all my hairs cut!
Megan did a great job – and thought to take a photo of the front and back!
Pamper day continued at the nail spa. My toes and hair had been neglected for many moons!!
Entertainment. Sadly I did more iPhoning than reading!
Ballantyne Nail Spa is my favorite in Charlotte. They do all the good stuff: 3x leg treatments, long massage, and hot wax!!!!! Plus they have good chairs, a nice clean, airy feel and friendly staff.
And wine!! I actually just asked for some water to begin…then I saw the wine pour next to me and asked for a tiny sample glass. I didn’t quite finish this – just wanted some sips! I almost always get pedis in the morning and never want wine, so I decided I needed to take advantage of the fact that I was there in the afternoon!
Home now. Ready for a snack! Then gotta laundry and pack for the beach. We’re leaving first thing in the AM!

Looks like you had a fun afternoon! Love the haircut! I love getting haircuts-I always schedule them for midterm week! Also love seeing how far you’ve come- I’m on the other end, I start working toward my RD this fall
It looks like you’ve had an awesome and relaxing day.
I hope packing goes by quickly and you are able to get a good night’s rest before your trip. Have fun!!!

I love the hair! She did great!
I’m trying to grow mine out to pretty much that exact length – but it’s so hard to just let it grow and not be annoyed with it and chop it short!
Haircut – what a lovely way to spend your day of freedom!
I didn’t know you used autopost..I just assumed you always ate your lunch at 12.26 :p
Have a great afternoon
What a fabulous afternoon! And your hair looks great.
I love your hair cut, it look great!
loooove the new haircut!
wow…i don’t think i’ve ever had a pedicure like that…with wine too?!?! i’ve gotta find me a place like that!
So fun! I love grocery store salad bars!
Your hair looks cute!
I never knew you could get wine at a nail salon, but then again, I’ve only been to a nail salon once, and it was in a Walmart.
Sounds like an amazing day! Your hair looks great!
Congrats on finishing your internship. Hope you and Matt have a fun and relaxing time at the beach.
What a wonderful day full of pampering. You deserve it Kath!
I wonder if any nail salons around here have wine? That’s so fun.
I’m glad you enjoyed some pampering, you deserve it
Which reminds me, I need to pay some attention to my feet too
oh what a fun day!
I LOVE the new hair! What a fun + relaxing day too! You deserve it after all your hard work
i am so incredibly jealous of your pedi and your fabulous hair! i’m hoping to finally look presentable in about a week and a half when my stylist gets back in town…but til then my hair will be living vicariously through yours
Man, you sure know how to treat yourself after a crazy busy internship!!!
And WHAT THE HECK?!?!? I want pedis at places that serve wine near me! That’s ridiculous!!
Good luck packing.
Kath, your hair looks so pretty! Oh, and that dressing is ridiculous. I have never understood why people would need two containers of dressing!
I enjoyed lunch with you today! It was SO nice to catch up and RELAX after these rough n tough past 6 months! Can’t believe we are D-O-N-E! 2.5-3 years of hard work and here we are!!!! Your hair cut looks SO cute!
OMG this is my fav hair cut I have ever seen on you! you’re so gorgeous and this cut really flatters you!!!
Your day sounds fabulous, & I LOVE your haircut!! That salad looks scrumptious & wouldn’t need more than a few drops of dressing…it’s sad how wastful restaurants are! I found out recently that Verizon will most likely pick up the iPhone in January which I definitely want, but I was just wondering, would you recommend it? I’ve heard both positives & negatives about it from users so I thought you would be a great source of advice since you use it a lot to take pictures & blog. Good luck packing, I’m so jealous of you going to the beach!
What a wonderfully relaxxing day! The weather looks glorious!!
Isn’t finishing the internship the BEST feeling in the world! Glad you got to celebrate with some well-deserved relaxation. Your hair is super cute, too. Have a great time at the beach!
Here’s a yummy salad I’ve had of late:
green romaine
black beans
corn
chicken breast slices (seasoned with fajita-like flavours, ie chili seasoning)
shredded cheese
tomato-basil dressing / salsa
MMM!
fiesta!
Your pedi looks so indulgent! Yay for treating yourself!
Have fun at the beach!
Exciting!!! I wish I was going to the beach!
And WHAT a place to get a pedicure!
Your hair is gorgeous! I love the extra flip that she added with the blowdryer. Very cute!
What a great way to celebrate being done with the internship! It’s so fun to be pampered once in a while.
I could totally take advantage of a pamper day right now! Looks like you enjoyed your day
What a perfect day! Have a fun time at the beach:)
That is such a fun day and you deserve every bit of it. Your hair looks great. I hope you have a great trip and a fantastic relaxing holiday weekend.
You are so cute, glad you had a day to pamper. I’m going to the beach tomorrow, too but the NJ shore with extended family and TEENAGERS, ugh, including two of my own. Enjoy your solitude while you can. Looks like a great week for us with forecast highs in the upper 90′s and sunny every day
How’s your weather forecast?
What a great time! Love the hair!
I think it is official: You are “living the life”! And a well-deserved one at that
Lovely haircut! And salad with blue cheese and chickpeas? Yes please!
Awesome day! Your hair looks great.
The only sad thing about this post is that I am dieing for a salad now.
Have a great weekend.
the cut looks great!
i love saving salad dressings for future meals – to put in other salads or marinade/sauce. it’s a bonus!
Your hair looks fantastic! I love the layers
Wow, what a fun afternoon! Haircut and a spa – you’re getting spoiled, girl
Your hair looks great, though.
Wei-Wei
What fun! I’m way overdue for a pedi…
Absolutely beautiful salad! But I definitely wouldn’t need anywhere near that much dressing!
Looks like a great day. Nice to see you having time to relax after working so hard. The hair looks great too!
