I would like to drown myself in these over this lovely holiday weekend. It’s red, so I would be patriotic. I’m even giving it to you a day early so you can be prepared. You’re welcome.

Ice cream BOGO!

Now through July 4th, its BOGO time at Baskin Robbins! Buy a scoop, get a scoop! I scream, you scream – let’s all scream for free ice cream! Yay!

Keyboard bath

06.29.2011

If you’re anything like me, your computer keyboard is gross. Nasty from spilled food, animal hair, sneezes and lord knows what else! Well get a load of this – did you know you can put that thing in the dishwasher? Sure you have to take all the guts out, but wouldn’t it be worth it? Check this out for step by step instructions.

One question though – I have one of those new Mac keyboards that are flat and have no visible screws on the back. How the hell do I clean this?

Berry delicious

06.27.2011

I have been gorging myself on berries lately. The last bunch of strawberries I bought was so sweet it’s almost criminal. The only thing that irritates me when I buy berries though is that they go bad so quickly (which is, perhaps, where my gorging comes in…). I like to wash them when I come home so they are always clean and ready to eat. But when I switch them from the perforated plastic container they come in to a clear glass bowl, I end up having to rotate the whole lot because the ones on the bottom get all gooey. If I had one of these lovely ceramic berry baskets, however, all my problems would be solved! A pretty container, for sure, and proper air flow to boot, so no more gooey strawberries! Yay!

Entertainment Weekly has just released their picks for the top 25 routines from So You Think You Can Dance. It is no secret that I am IN LOVE with this show. I even asked my husband when this season started if he thought it was too late for me to become a dancer. And yes, I was totally serious. Every season the talent just seems to get better and better and this season is no exception. Every week I am giddy with anticipation for the new show and watching I am riddled with chills at the raw talent of all the contestants. If you don’t watch, I urge you to give it a try. Because how do you know you don’t like something unless you try it?

A thought crossed my mind this morning as I was writing this that I should change the name of this segment to ‘fat fuck friday’ because holy lord, after all these recipes, that’s exactly where I’m headed. But then my next thought was how incredibly booooooring life would be without all this fat flavor. I mean, seriously, no butter, no cheese, no bacon? Puh-leez!

I desperately need this product, aptly named DrawerDecor by it’s creator, Keith Neilson. Not only is it totally functional, but it’s kitchy and stylish with it’s bright color options. DrawerDecor is a DIY system of modular silicone sheets and dividers that can be trimmed  fit your drawers. Each 16-piece set comes with one nonslip BaseMat made from food-grade silicone and an assortment of Divitz dividers, which stick to the BaseMat so you can create perfectly sized storage slots for even your most irregularly sized tools and utensils. So yay me, now I don’t have to rifle through a stack of forks, spatulas, can openers and a whole slew of shit I only use once a year to get to my pizza cutter!

Pig of the Month

06.22.2011

The Richards’ family vacations were basically one big scavenger hunt for the nation’s best barbeque. And after visiting A LOT of restaurants and tasting A LOT of barbeque, Pig of the Month was born. The Richards love of barbeque is a love to be shared and by recreating their favorites from all their travels in their very own kitchen, they can now provide YOU with the best barbeque too! Pig of the Month offers ribs just the way all barbecue lovers want them: perfectly seasoned, tender-on-the-inside but crispy-on-the-outside, smoky, and mouthwatering!  They only use certified humane and natural meats from DuBreton Farms and offer a 100% money back guarantee should you, for some reason (which is unlikely), not be satisfied with your order. So what are you waiting for? PIG OUT!

Teenie heart

06.20.2011

I’m usually not big on wearing gold or hearts but I am kind of over the moon for this Teenie heart necklace from Jane Hollinger. It’s dainty, delicate and ultra feminine, and in my opinion, would add a little dirty innocent schoolgirl quality to any outfit!
