Out in the Sun, With No Work Getting Done

I've been talking about the Bag Lunch Custom Balm Workshop for quite a while now, promising that it will be online "soon."

Turns out, I've been sort of lazy lately... this nice weather keeps yanking me outside and sadly, my computer cable isn't long enough to follow. So the web update I've been hee-hawing about has fallen to the wayside.

But no longer! By the end of this weekend the Bag Lunch Custom Balm Workshop will go live! I'm not kidding this time!

The arrival of the Bag Lunch Custom Balm Workshop will also bring about two main points of awesomeness...
1. This will save me endless trip to the post office to mail out info packets.
2. Those of you who want to learn more about our custom balm will be able to get the information much quicker...
No more waiting for the info to arrive by mail! Ah, the immediacy of the internet! Technology is swell!

So yes, dear friends...the "soon" will shortly become "now."

I'm Charmed...

The fine people at Earthenwood Studio make the cutest foodie charms I've ever seen. The charms are hand formed from porcelain clay so each one is unique.

I especially like the donut charms. So cute I can hardly stand it! They make a load of other great things, in addition to these great little charms, so visit them and buy something, will ya?

To purchase these cutie cute cute charms, as well as other goodies, please visit www.earthenwoodstudio.com

Kitsch in the Kitchen!

Jen, the wonderful lady behind Sweet Pea Handcrafts, makes fantastic aprons in addition to a ton of other neat stuff.
My favorite apron has to be the "Reverse Hot Lucy." I love polka dots and this apron has a ton of them! You can purchase the "Reverse Hot Lucy" in two styles... a half apron that's great for light cooking duties, and a full apron for the times when full coverage in the kitchen is a must!

To purchase these great aprons, as well as other neat-o stuff, visit www.sweetpeahandcrafts.com

Thanks for Everything. Really.

Thank you, city of Brookline... for towing my car and making me roughly 5 hours late for work.

Thanks for towing my vehicle to a tow lot that isn't anywhere near public transportation.

If I didn't have the wonderful Myko offer to drive me to pick up my car, I'd probably still be walking to the tow lot.

So Thanks. Really. Made my day.

Food-Based Humor and a Chocolatey Apology.

I highly recommend the Stand-Up Comedy of Jim Gaffigan. He has a few albums out and he's very funny. A large portion of his material is based around food!

In other news... Cadbury is trying to win me back. They've sent coupons as an apology for the Mini Egg fiasco of last week.
It's working. I can easily be bought. Welcome home Cadbury! I can forgive what you've done to me.. but I won't forget.

Oh, how you've let me down...

I'm speaking to you, Cadbury. How could you do this to me? We've shared so much.
I bought a bag of your delicious Mini Eggs today and this is what I get....

A BUNCH OF BROKEN SHELLS!!!?
Why? I've never done anything but love you and this is what I get?

I'm disapointed in you.

I know what you're going to say. You'll say that your shells are delicate and this is to be expected.
But guess what... I'm not buying it. M&Ms have much thinner shells than yours and they would never do this to me.
(Oh, don't pretend you don't know about me and the M&Ms...you were away and I was lonely. It wouldn't have happened if you stopped by more than once a year, Mini Eggs.)

I'm not mad, just upset.
I'm willing to give you one more chance.
If this happens again, its over.

I'll call Lindt. Don't think I won't.
