Southern Fried Chicken in Southport, England? Needless to say we did not eat here during the week.

Gotta love Indian food! Love curry and that naan bread is to DIE for. Indian food has to be one of my favorite food. Went to go eat at this restaurant one too many times last week.

Shrimp with coconut curry. Nickole and I got so excited when we could understand this from the menu!!
Steak in Evian yummmm...super simple taste. no confusing sauce. seemed like it was seasoned with just some salt and pepper.

new look

dyed my hair black for the first time ever! what do you think?

to whom it may concern: perception is reality

held up the brush again in my hand and it felt glorious. it was fun to take an afternoon listening to music while painting. took my mind off everything and i love how these kinds of activities just really reset my buttons.

was listening to iamamiwhoami while painting. these videos are so genius and so creative. i love it.

also, this is amazing!!

In order to see the rainbow, you must first endure the rain.

I am extremely disappointed in how I played this past week, but the only thing I can do now is to move forward and to work harder. I am excited for a good week of practice at Nemacolins Resort and I am looking forward to play in the Evian Masters and the British Open!

meanwhile...lola and I encounter a lovely camel.
