That is very cool! I could totally see myself making regular use of something like that.
Joulies
The other day, the Evening Standard had a little blurb on so called "magic beans" and I immediately had to learn more. I can't even count how many times I've forgotten about my cup of coffee or tea until it's too late. This may be the perfect solution. Introducing Joulies: Coffee Joulies from...
We never called it mermaid's tears, just seaglass or China, but it was definitely one of our favorite activities! The part of the island my parents live on now doesn't have any seaglass, or at least as much. When we have kids I'll have to take them to the public beach for some hunting. My Mom still has big glass vases around the house filled with seaglass, one of my favorite decorations and one I'll probably copy someday. It makes me sad to think that seaglass is becoming rarer, but I suppose it isn't good to wish for more glass bottles to be thrown into the sea :P
Beyond the Sea
When I was a little girl, I can vividly remember spending hours looking at my grandmother's collection of sea glass. My grandparents used to spend time in Maine and often strolled along the beaches looking for little treasures. Each piece of brilliantly coloured smooth glass is indeed somethi...
We used to spend hours and hours as kids looking for sea glass. On the island where we spent our summers (and still do) there was a hurricane in 1938. Several buildings were knocked into the bay. As a result there are beaches with tons of sea glass, some of it is China, which was what we prized the most as kids!

I love the jewelry! The bangle colors are so pretty. And the gold hoops seem like they'll go with anything, but still have a unique look to them.
Bimba & Lola Spring/Summer 2011
You couldn't expect me to be in a city with Bimba & Lola and not stop by could you? It's in the Marais and that is reason enough! What did I get? classic gold hoops & colourful bangles It was really the colour of the bangles that drew me to them. They are hard to photograph true to life....
I've had that conversation with my husband a million times. But you can replace "pretzels" with "chinese food" and "tubby" with "heartburn." Or, alternatively, "pretzels" with "dubious looking video games you buy when nothing good has come out for awhile" and "tubby" with "play a video game for ten minutes and realize it sucks."
the frozen pretzel conundrum
I am slowly but steadily finding my way back to that mysterious land where I feel motivated and inspired to write something every day. I blame Fallout: New Vegas for wrapping me up in an interesting world every night, and a giant stack of comic books that reminded me how much I love superhero st...
