Aaaahh!

The call was to remind me of my appointment for a manicure and pedicure. Believe me a mani/pedi is not something I’m likely to overlook. For me it’s a little escape from the day-to-day facets of life. Since I always go to the same person (Jamie) we laugh and talk about all kinds of crazy things. On my last visit I told her she could do whatever she wanted and I ended up with each toe painted a different color. With the cooler weather I won’t be showing them off in sandals, but I have to say these toes make me smile.

While I go to a local day spa, there are spas located in vacation destinations that can enhance any getaway or longer stay. And with the increasing popularity of girls’ getaway trips, spas are becoming a destination themselves. Spa Shiki, at the Lodge of the Four Seasons at the Lake of the Ozarks, offers a full range of services, including massages and facials.


Bellehaven, The Spa at Chaumette, is located on the grounds of Chaumette Winery in Ste. Genevieve (talk about the best of both worlds). There are services that use grape seeds, stalks and vines. A few, such as the Red Wine and Honey Wine wraps, use wine extracts directly from the winery.


I'm due for a massage and facial myself. Perhaps I'll plan a spa tour of the state. I think I've earned it. LOL
