Super Pointless Post.

But here it is, nonetheless. How cute are my new salt and pepper shakers?

Here’s the salt and pepper story. We were going out for St. Patty’s, and I decided it would be genius to buy a onesie. Yeah, a onesie, the only thing missing? Snaps in the crotch.
It was cute, but after riding a mechanical bull (getting my ass kicked by a mechanical bull) I lost a button. I was pretty pissed and decided to take it back to the store where I bought it.
This store has some really quirky odds-n-end housewares as well, and Maeve found these super cute birds so we had to get them.
I exchanged my onesie for something a little more functional, I’m sure most agree.

Worst Product I’ve bought in a LONG time.

And of course the junk is now off the market according to the Costco website.

I’m talking about the Emeril Legasse dinnerware. What a bunch of GARBAGE!
There’s nothing like pouring a cup of tea, picking up the mug, and your fingers begin to blister on contact with the handle. Or you put your dishwasher safe dishes in the dishwasher, only to have them come out missing hunks and chunks.
For 14 years I used my mom’s 1970s Wedgewood Winter Wheat patterned dishes. I decided to go simple when I chose something new, and wanted to get white. Plain white. Doesn’t get more simple than that. Costco carried the dishes and they looked nice on the box. 3 days later I already had chips in dish and a mug. 3 months later (now) 1/4 of the set is a mess in some way, and FORGET about microwaving them because your finger prints will peel off.
Needless to say they’ve been discontinued, and now I’m stuck with these pieces of shit.
Thanks a lot, Emeril. I don’t know who the 12 morons are that gave them high ratings on the Costco site but those liars clearly didn’t eat on them or wash them.

Awesome Item of the Day

I know, I know, this is not a very “green” item but

I don’t care! This is the best dusting thingamajig I’ve ever had!
My house is like a dust funnel, no matter the season everything is always covered in creepy, dusty crap. This little cheaply made fluff on a plastic stick is amazing. I can even stuff it inside the lights on the ceiling fans, and you know how gross those are. The kids like to use it too, whether it’s to dust in their room when I force them to clean, or to hit the dog (kidding…).

My Little Artist

Brinn can sit at the kitchen table with a blob of paint, a scrap of paper and keep herself busy for hours! Here’s my little Matisse.

When I asked her to smile for the picture, THIS is how she posed! ha!

Shaye hates baby food

but thoroughly enjoys table food! This week I just started making her scrambled eggs for breakfast. For 5 days I’ve tried to give her baby food. She snubbed me every single time, forget it! I give up. It’s time to be a big girl now!
