Is this what's in for Fall?



On my way into work today I found my self distracted and in awe of a gleaming shine that appeared to be coming from a woman's foot. When I glanced down and the realization hit me that this light was being reflected from an anklet the woman was wearing I stopped dead in my tracks...an ANKLET! When was the last time you wore or even saw someone wearing an anklet? While walking into the Montague store this morning I vaguely remember having worn one about 15 years ago when I was in 6th grade. Have I just been so out of the fashion world lately that I have completely missed the anklet comeback?

Cool but ANNOYING!!!!!


I have two of these Kikkerland LED key chains - I have the duck and the monkey - and I think they are practical but in a fun way. The lights are super bright which helps for when I'm trying to unlock my doors, and they make really funny but annoying sounds. I think the new Ghost one for Halloween takes the cake as being the most annoying of them all. I admit when I came into the toy store today and saw it I had to try it out. It's soooo LOUD. But it really got to me when all but maybe three customers came in and had to test it out themselves, it became irritating. I mean, I had one guy just hold the button down for they entire fifteen minutes he was in the store. I was relieved when he decided to buy it. I also bought one for myself so I can go piss off the roommates :)

That's pretty much how I spend my days

It's only been a month since I started grad school and I already feel overwhelmed between the time I'm at work and the time I'm not studying. But by the time I get home I don't want to do anything but lay down. I feel like I shouldn't be doing anything but work for school but of course that's when I have a billion things to do (yes a BILLION, I'm a very busy woman)! Is it Christmas break yet?

New, Fun Educational Tools by Kid O!






Check out these new, cool learning puzzles by Kid O. A mixture of classic colours, simples shapes, and vivid illustrations, these puzzles encourage learning fractions and strengthen memory at a very young age. It also helps children understand the concept of differences between shapes, colours, heights and those in animals. My favourite is the "Discovering 4-in-1 Jungle" puzzle set.

As if the new Tea couldn't get any cuter


This Tea Sweater dress is so amazing I'm jealous I can't fit into it! The puff sleeves and button up back are so different from the other fall dresses that I have seen this year. The Tea collection is putting out some really fashionable clothes for infants and toddlers this fall. This would be so cute with a pair of leggings or sweater tights and boots. Oh and a scarf. Maybe even a beret. Okay I'm getting way into putting together an outfit that I can't even wear...must stop!

Sale! Venta! Vente!

Mmmm....miso


Right now I have the biggest craving for miso soup. It just sounds so delicious. I think it's a combination of the rainy weather and that I'm feeling a little sick that's making miso soup so appealing right now. Not only is it warm, comforting and delicious but it's healthy too!

Yeah miso, miso and some delicious mango peach green tea. Oh man I can't wait to get home to enjoy!

I just want to nap in one


The 7AM Enfant stroller bags look so soft and warm I just want to cuddle up inside one. It could be 10 degrees out and hailing and I'm pretty sure I would be all warm and cozy inside this amazing sleeping bag-like accessory for strollers. Perfect for those New York winters!

har har har :P



hahaha I just scared this little boy with the Plan Toy moving mouse LOL. I actually did make him cry...I did'nt mean to of course..all I did was pull the mousie by its tail backwards to show him that the mouse can move on its own! After that it all went down hill. I feel bad...but hey! at least now the kid knows how the plan toy mouse works haha. I love it.
