Oh I Have Really Done IT Now...

$330.00 poorer tonight. More details to come when I can bare to look at my receipt. All that I remember are Thomas O'Brien Christmas Ornaments. The rest is a blur.

Skincare for the Chef

I admit it, I’m not a chef, nor do I even cook, so I wouldn’t know the anguish of having fishy smelly hands. But I could imagine it … yuck. If the chef in your life is tired of having garlic fingers, give them the Chef Yossi Personal Care set. It’s a line of skincare products for professional and gourmet chefs. They were created to eradicate stubborn food odors such as garlic and fish. The antibacterial sanitizers protect your hands from kitchen borne germs and pathogens. These products are soothing and non-drying to your hands. Visit Target.com to pick up these skincare products for the professional foodie in you or like me, one you know.

This looks fun

What a fun idea! Make your own notecards! I likey- and they are on sale!

This would be a good gift solution for the person on your list who has it ALL or the person on your list who never writes a thank you note.....

Mark McGwire on the Wall

Now I’m not a huge fan of baseball but I’m sure this 1985 Topps Uncut Baseball Card Sheet is an essential piece for the avid collector. What makes this a terrific investment as well is that the sheet contains the rare Mark McGwire Team USA card. This card is widely considered to be Mark McGwire’s rookie card, a magnificent find in itself. The entire sheet is double framed and matted, then encased in Plexiglas. That way it can be enjoyed and envied from both sides.

So if you know of any big baseball fans and have four benjamin’s to burn, then check out the 1985 Topps Uncut Baseball Card Sheet from Target.com.

I scored the coveted items...

Black boots and gaucho pants.

So for a while STT's everywhere have been talking about the black gaucho pants which were mysteriously on the Target site, then off and the kitten heel tall boots that were on but sold out. So I went to my local Target in search of these items, scored both and here is what I think, if you care.

Boots: I know that you get what you pay for so that being said my reaction to these is "ho-hum". The kitten heel is almost too low, or the slant of the foot is not right or something because I feel funky in them, the calf/zipper is pleasantly generous to fit my muscles but the calf doesn't stay up and walking around in them for a few hours hurt my ankle bone big time.

Out of stock on the site but I found them in the store:



Pants: Shown with the most haneous of shoe choices in the picture below, these gaucho pants are a winner for $12.99. Love them for lounging and yes occasionally leaving the house. Please do me a favor and do not ever wear shoes like this with these pants. Or rather- at all. What is this 1992? I feel like I am on the set of 90210.
