My Radar is Broken

There has been a drought on cool stuff lately. I have not been inspired to write anything as of late—maybe my “cool” radar is off or maybe I have been too busy. In any case, I have seen a few small things. I suppose 3 small items justify 1 blog entry:

I am trying not to use plastic food containers anymore. Who knows what happens when you put those flimsy things in the microwave! My new solution: these super cool food containers from Crate and Barrel—not too pricey and you will have the coolest leftovers at the office!

For the Seattleites:

Ever hear of sugaring? It’s a kinder, gentler form of waxing and I tried it this week. It still hurt but not as bad and it left my skin softer then usual. Check out
The Sweet Spot in Fremont….

I am not a sentimental person. Which is why I am on a mission to sell my wedding dress. Some people think it is crazy but I think it would be much better on someone else then collecting dust in my closet. That’s why I love this new local wedding dress consignment shop in Fremont. Check it out. http://www.blueskybridal.com/

Off to get my radar fixed…

We Go Together


On any given night I can ask my husband what he wants to eat for dinner and he will say: grilled cheese and tomato soup. It has to be the best comfort food this side of the Mississippi. Right? When I ran across this well paired plate on http://www.uncommongoods.com/ I thought of my hubby. It is perfectly sized to serve up the dynamic duo. One thing is for sure, it will get serious use in our house.

Post Scrip….Uncommon Goods is a quirky & dense website. I did find myself sifting through it and delighted by some of the items. It is good site to get a gift for that friend who has it all or has a taste for items you can’t buy at Crate & Barrel or the Gap.
