Hi party people!

Last night man-go-round and I were watching an episode of Rick Steve’s Europe- Spain and Portugal- that I had picked up from the library. He saw a blonde woman (a rubia, if you will) on screen, and asked me if I got a lot of attention while living in Madrid for having blonde hair. I had to remind him that at the time, I was a not blonde or brunette, but rather a saucy redhead, rendered even more cherry red by the stylists I visited while living there.

I spent a good hour or two reliving my mysterious redhead days. And then, remembering that it was TV month over here at meri-goes-round, I decided to do a little tribute to the best (and worst) redheads on television.
