Christmas was great. Such a sweet and relaxing day enjoying time with those I love. After Christmas sales – AMAZING. I got the Willow Tree Creche. It’s beautiful!
Saturday, October 11th, 2008Late Night at Target
Karen and I left here at 8:45 pm. We were at Target at 9:10pm (exit 15 on the Belt Parkway). Target is open until 10:00 pm. We had the most relaxing time at Target because it was basically empty. If you love Target, try going at night when no one is there – it is [...]

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008A trip to Long Island
We went for a day trip to Long Island yesterday. We left at 7:30 AM and drove to the Tanger Outlet in Riverhead, NY. The Williams Sonoma store was having a good sale (40% off) and I had a gift card from Christmas. So I got this Le Creuset dutch oven in Lemongrass. It’s so [...]
Sunday, June 29th, 2008Our trip to Pier 1
Lee wanted to get new bowls. He is very particular about the shape of a bowl and has been expressing his lack of love for our current set. Last year, he didn’t like our bowls so he decided to go to the 99 Cents store and purchase us new ones. After microwaving something in one [...]
Saturday, June 28th, 2008My Favorite Piece of Furniture
My favorite piece of furniture that I own is the Pottery Barn Rhys Media Center. It took me weeks to buy it, but it was well worth it. The Rhys table is strong and very attractive. I love it! I have the middle piece that holds the television. I don’t have room for the two [...]
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008My Vanity
I bought my vanity about 10 years ago online for $199.00. It’s cherry wood and I chose it because of the necklace holder drawer that is on the left side of the vanity. It’s great to hang long chains on so they don’t get tangled.
Friday, June 6th, 2008Prettiest Bowl I Own
I bought this bowl for myself last Christmas because I loved it so much. It’s one of the few things that I paid full price (no coupons) for, but I had to have it. It’s actually 9 bowls stacked inside one another and great for entertaining. I got it from Zanisa and I love it!
Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008Williams Sonoma not as great as it used to be?
I love, love, love Pottery Barn. So I thought I would love Williams Sonoma. Yet, I made a recent order for two items and I wasn’t too thrilled with them. One item was an oven rack for $8.99 And the other was for these shooting star ice pops for $6.99: It’s not that these items [...]

Monday, October 29th, 2007Up early to shop
I got up early and called Karen. We went to 86th Street to do some shopping. I got new pants, 4 shirts (3 for work), earrings and some cute bracelets. She bought her first pair of maternity pants. She and I couldn’t stop smiling and laughing in the store. We have talked about going to [...]
