Happy Monday!! Since football season is in full swing, it was a manly weekend in my house. I love football, but watching game after game, while yelling at the tv and saying, "Oh man, we should have had that one!" as if actually part of the team, makes me crave
a dose of girliness. Luckily, my
InStyle magazine arrived weeks ago and since I had no time before to even open it, by about the third football game of the day, I shut off the sound around me and immersed myself in my magazine.

this page I think I squealed. ...since I created my own definition for a "cupcake monkey" when I
started this blog, I can appreciate their creativity on this and love it:

1. A large house or enclosure for birds.
2. A warm, welcoming nest from which beauty and wellness take flight.
3. An oasis that is more about eco than ego, where the personal is professional and clients are considered friends.

I have had my fair share of salon mishaps, so now all I need to do is hop on a plane to Atlanta and hope they live up to my expectations! ;) Have a great week!
