pocket change

These are so lovely. And cheap! Ditch those old bowls you stole from the dining hall 8 years ago. It's time. Really.


Slab Bowls $1.50-$2.95

I am not a paper cup...

Those clunky travel mugs aren't doing anything for your reputation as a hip, urbane, style conscious, responsible consumer. Try this om your commute. It's tres chic and tres, tres green.



'I am not a paper cup' Porcelain Cup $20

It's a radio. It's wooden. It plays MP3s. I love it.

Sigh... So simple, so sophisticated.

For a little sass in the kitchen...

Birch is Beautiful

Vases can be a pretty dreadful gift; useless, hard to store, unnecessarily crystal. But not this one. It's modern, fresh, interesting, beautiful, and ultimately a really great gift. Thanks so Meg at Shelterrific for finding it!

Spotted this rustic little number on Apartment Therapy. I'm not sure I'll have an appropriate place to put this, but you might.

Why didn't I think of that?

Why bury your measuring spoons in a drawer. I'm sure you wouldn't if they were as sweet as these from Beehive Kitchenware.

Happy Hanukkah!

I wonder if Manischewitz tastes any better in these glasses? Happy Hanukkah!

Modern Day MacGyver

Instead of using a paper clip to deprogram a time bomb or fending off a helicopter attack with a house fan like McGyver a pencil sharpener would probably be more likely to save the day (Three words away from finishing the crossword puzzle and the pencil snapped!). This resourceful little stocking stuffer from Restoration Hardware, complete with a stapler, scissors, stapler, tape measure, hole punch, screw drivers, and more, will make you a modern day McGyver at home and on the road.

For wiener dog lovers everywhere (especially the one sitting at the desk across from me).


Ruby Pillow from Elsewares $72
