World's Cheapest Manicure



When I was a little girl, I loved plucking these flowers and putting them on my fingertips like long, fake nails.  Did you do that, too?

Not flowers, but I did use Bugles snacks as fake nails... then I'd eat them.

No, I didn't do that, but I don't do manicures as an adult, so I guess it just isn't my personality to get fussy about my fingernails.
