        I LOVE pedicures. I treat myself once a month. My toes always look pretty LOL.

        I feel relaxed when I have a clean vehicle, so I will go through an auto car wash each month as well.

        I really love to shop. I like desginer bags, clothes, shoes - but of course can never really afford them. I will save and save and then take a shopping spree every quarter.

        I like to burn candles. I will buy candles as I need them, but make it a day of shopping for candles and stuff for our home - with a buddy of course.

          Great ideas everyone!

          I will put lipstick one everday. No matter how I feel. I will try for mascara and eyeshadow too. I will put on some form of girly smelling lotion everyday! (Bath and Body Works, here I come!).

            I need to get a manicure soon, sounds like a friday activity to me!

            I'm also planning my next treat: avocadoes stuffed with crabmeat. probably more prosciutto and piave cheese too, that was SO yummy.

                Terry, that sounds like fun!!!

                KnickKnack - How do you come up with these ideas? I'm not a fan of crab meat, but I like that you have all of these unique food things to try. Keep us posted on your new creations!!

                  I'm a big giant gourmand, that's how. I love love love love eating in fancy restaurants and trying new things. I can never afford it being a grad student, but I love it. So, every once in a while I like to do something (usually an appetizer) that I've had elsewhere.

                  Plus, my dad is french and his mother taught my mom how to cook, and my parents are both on atkins. So, when I go home I have these fantastic meals, so I carry the ideas home with me.

                  I guess I just pick up things by eating different places. I don't know what next weeks treat will be though!

                            Neat! I will often stop at the drug store and pick up a small fragrance spray or a new lip gloss or something! Just an inexpensive little pick-me-up!

                              I got my hair highlighted this week. It now looks like I've been in the sun all summer. *Grin* which is, of course, not true at all.

                              last week I got a manicure.

                              I never did my treat dinner last week though, my avocado STILL isn't ripe!!! But I have it all ready to go once it is!
