What was up with the Alameda Flea Market (also known, affectionately, as the crap fair) today? hardly anyone, either vendors or shoppers was there. It was very very odd – I suspect some sort of combination of the Super Bowl and the predicted rain that failed to happen. Anyways, I did manage to pick up [...]

yesterday I stopped by Anthropologie to cash in some store credit I had, and picked up these great stacking mugs and a new colorful oven mitt.
We have a shortage of cabin space in our kitchen, and mugs have always taken up more than their fair share of it, so I’m thrilled to now have four [...]
T. recently found a new use for a coverless butter dish that’s been hanging around our kitchen for a while. It’s now a spoon rest for the top of the stove, and I have to say it makes the best spoon rest ever.
Love these beaker juice glasses from CB2. At only $1.95 a piece you can buy enough to supply a whole party.
It has been really hot here lately (88 degrees today,) which means that it’s totally time to break out the iced tea pitchers. Pitchers are great – much to T.’s chagrin I’ve started somewhat of a collection of them. My favorite place to look for pitchers? eBay of course. Here are some of my current [...]
Not quite sure how making this cup and saucer fit together is practical, but it sure is cool. The cupple mug, available at day-lab, $15.

Love these glasses on sale from Red Envelope, especially the price – $16.99 for four (down from $42 for the set! Need a mother’s day gift anyone?
(By the way, T. used to to work in the building where Red Envelope had their offices, and everyone his office would talk about how every single person who [...]
Oh man, T. and I went to Ross today to look for clothes and ended up totally making out in the home section. Not the kissing kind of making out, but the getting so much awesome stuff for so little money kind of making out. My favorite purchase is this blue cake stand that I [...]
I love the Home Decor section at Anthropologie, but it’s just too expensive for me most of the time. So I really love when things go on sale. Here are some of my current favorites:
Solar Eclipse Serving Tray, $49.95 (down from $150)
Handheld tea bowls, matte or shiny, $14.95 each (down from $28)
coulis dessert plates, [...]

Orange was my favorite color for a long time, but a few years ago we had a falling out. However, we’ve been in discussion lately and I think that we may be starting to work something out again. I’m loving these new (not sure how new, but new enough to be in the ‘new’ [...]
