June 11th, 2012don’t cry. it’s back
June 8th, 2012Next week is going to be way better than this week. How do I know? For starters, True Blood is back on Sundays. The perfect way to quick off the last week of school. Season 5 starts this Sunday night.
A Season 4 recap in case your memory needs some jogging…
Pissed off werewolves, vampire preachers, possessed Lafayette, heartbroken Sookie, lovestruck Jason, Bill. Eric. Alcide. Oh, it really is that good. Happy Watching!

go…vino. go.
June 6th, 2012Sticking with my backyard barbeque and/or pool side bash theme, I highly recommend these govino stemless wine glasses. I grabbed a box of 4 at The Tyler Florence Shop while in Napa last summer. They are the perfect marriage of the good ‘ole keg cup and your favorite stemless bar ware.
These glasses are made from a food-safe, BPA-free polymer and it is recyclable (#1), but better yet it is reusable. The glasses are actually flexible and completely shatter proof. Perfect for the pool deck or anywhere else glass is not permitted. $12.95 for 4 – you can’t go wrong!
You can order directly from the govino website (they also have decanters, stemless flutes, and stemless cocktail glasses) or I just spied them in the recent cb2 catalog.

sidwalk surfers, dude.
May 24th, 2012As I continue to prep for summer, I have to share about Sanuk shoes. My oldest did not want another pair of Crocs, but we needed something a little more substantial than flip flops. A pair of sidewalk surfers was the answer. Total lucky find.

May 21st, 2012We call them flip flops (my dad calls them thongs, but that is just embarrassing!) The Hawaiians call them slippers and I am in love with my new Locals slippers. Greatest purchase on my recent trip Maui! I wanted to get my boys an inexpensive pair of flips. Our friends that live on Maui suggested Longs Drugs. “You can get anything at Longs.”
Locals were the only flip flops they had, so that is what they got. They were $2.99 a pair. At that price I decided to splurge and get myself a pair. Mine were slightly more expensive at $3.99….and I will say are extremely comfortable! I went with basic black soles and translucent black straps, but they had fun colors in sizes ranging from toddler to adult!
Heading to a Hawaiian island soon? Pop into a Longs Drugs and outfit your entire family with flip flops for the price you would pay for one pair on the mainland. You will not regret it.
[Or you could order from them their website http://localsusa.com/. It will cost you a bit more this way but it is an easy way to bring the islands to you.]
Bring on summer!

a sweet indulgence
May 4th, 2012All natural, ready to eat, banana-based desserts, baked and sold in glass jars. To-die-for cute. [And I am in love with their web site!] Every single one of the desserts looks delicious. There are 4 frosted cake varieties and 4 ready to eat cheesecakes. And to my amazing good fortune, two of the cheesecakes are gluten-free! [Yes, I am blessed with a gluten free husband and mother-in-law].
Check out the entire menu at http://www.bananappeal.com/
I will not reveal my exact delivery order in case any of our special ladies read this post. [We sure do love you mom, Jeannie, and Pam. We are blessed and lucky to have you! ] I am seriously considering ordering some for myself…..happy mother’s day to me.
