So, having found out that my nose piercing hadn't healed in over ten years, I finally did buy a new ring. (pic below). What I hadn't considered, was that the stud is a lot thinner than a nose ring. I'm an idiot. By the time I finished torturing myself and finally managed to get the bloody thing in, I had tears running down my cheeks. And the thing is, I still don't know if I like it or should take it out again.

Here you go (and some garden pics and a pic of a dessert I made the other day: orange-cointreau sauce, vanilla icecream, fillets of orange, strawberries, iced thin slinters of dark chocolate, pistachios):
