I learned very early in life that you could be as dumb as a door knob, but as long as you got your mani-pedi's and shoppping on time, you could get to places in life.
Unfortunately, that isn't as easy as it might sound. For one you need to be loaded (with cash I mean). An average parolour treatment (just a mani-pedi) in an average salon costs you an easy 400 bucks. An average top costs you 500 and an unbranded slim fit jeans costs you 900. Let's say you have the finances figured out, what about the time? A good mani-pedi takes away an easy 30 - 15 minutes of your life. And picking clothes? It takes me 1 hour to pick out a decent kurta.
So what do you compromise on?
My colleague (smart woman that) uses another method to get places. She's a scrappy homemaker who has the fingers of a re-born chef. She cooks to get to places. And I must add she does a good job of it. She bakes a cake for everyone's birthday, brings the boss' favorite dish for lunch...
Tis agreed then - they way to a man (/woman's) heart is through the stomach.
