Bathroom Extras

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

I just stumbled across this gadget in a magazine the other day and thought it would be pretty handy for those who live in areas where you pay for water. I’d get one myself if I didn’t have well water for free and all…

Showerstart Evolve Lady Bug The Showerstart Evolve Lady Bug gadget attaches to any showerhead.  While the shower heats up in the morning, it allows you to multitask  as it turns the water down to a trickle once it is hot. Then all you have to do is pull the cord when you are ready to get it and it returns the stream to full pressure. Pretty cool , huh?

SAT Shower Curtain Urban Outfitters has always been known for their hip clothing, nut did you know that they have some of the coolest decorating items out there? Check out this SAT Shower curtain for your high school Junior or  your self proclaimed erudite husband.

Bath Tub Bath Mat By far one of the most clever bath mats I have seen lately. This would make a great conversation piece in your guest bath that is sans bath tub.

Perfect Portions

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

I cook for two which is just about as hard as it was to cook for one when I was single. So using large pans to make extra large dishes means leftovers for days if not a week plus. Since my husband and I both lose interest in a leftover after 24 hours, those giant tupperware containers merely hog up space in my fridge.That is why I found these Circulon pans to be so refreshing. They allow you to make smaller portions that not only cater to the small family but also to a smaller waist.

A good picnic basket is hard to find…

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

I am always on the lookout for the great picnic basket of the century. One that will blow me away with color, design, adaptability, storage, and more. As I find ones I like, I tear them out of magazines and keep them in a binder hoping to one day be able to afford to purchase one or give in and build one myself. Something tells me that it will be the latter.

The odd thing about me wanting a picnic basket so bad is that my husband and I never picnic. Maybe that is because I am lacking that oh so perfect basket or he works too much for us to find the time. I would like to think that if I had this magical basket, we would escape away on a sunny afternoon to one of our beautiful Savannah squares, kick off our shoes, and sit down for an afternoon picnic. Doesn’t that sound good?

Anyway, here is my latest picnic basket/ back pack find for the exagerrated price tag of $150.00!
