More Carmen coming up.

Asking for a friend. How do you watch the men's FS of U.S. Classic, this FD and make guacamole at the same time?

You make your S.O. do the grunt work.

I have issues with a 14 year old pretending to be Carmen.

As my mother would say..."With great difficulty"

But seriously if you manage it that'd be quite the feat.

I'm liking Bruce's costume here niiiice

He's already cooking taco meat. (And talking to his mom.)

 

[Mrs. P]

I'd say that was better than a few weeks ago. Solid performance.

Also those choreographic sliding movements is such a win this season.

I am inviting myself to your house for dinner. Put out an extra plate.

Do you still have any of that ice cream you ordered?

Something about Miku's dress reminds me of Maia Shib. Maybe it's the pastel color and classic cut. Very pretty, in any case. How can you go wrong skating to Edvin Marton lol

You guys can have the ice cream. I'm not eating dairy this month.

 

[ancientpeas]

This is extremely dreamy and romantic music and her dress goes with that.

You're all about the dreamy music and dresses.

You're all about the dreamy music and dresses.

When the music is too uptempo I get all excited and jumpy and the dog gets agitated then there is HAVOC.

Okay, then I'm definitely coming! lol. Anyway, if Miku's smile gets any cuter, I just won't be able to handle it. They're both too adorable for words.
