Le Viette makes housewarming sweet with their mini towel-desserts. They create adorable treat look-a-likes using organic cotton towels in all different colors. My little “swiss opera” below is the perfect little treat for a guest bathroom. I love how the striped towel looks so polished all rolled up with a “kiwi slice” tucked on top. [...]

This morning I’ll be in Oakland assembling Ikea furniture on camera for a National Geographic show, and then this afternoon I’ll be making my way back to Danville for a weenie roast. So ya, just your typical Thursday.

Over the last few weeks I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jules and Tristan, new blog friends on the redesign and migration of their communal blog from Typepad to WordPress. The launch took place two weeks ago, and I think we got all the kinks out. The migration from Typepad wasn’t as painless as [...]

Well, okay, I’m feeling more like a wet noodle after all the work and the sleepless nights, but we had a total blast. The girls made for a fun group; some discussion was very pointed and serious, [...]

Oh My! Tonight is the {Oh Yes!} party! Oh, how I can’t wait! {okay, you get the idea…} I have eleven fantastic products that I love and can’t wait to show you! And I’m starting number one EARLY. Whitney of Whisker Graphics *bumped into* my blog a while back, and after a few emails, we [...]
