How To Make Bacon Soap (fo’ real).

From the cool folks at Blogadilla.com Everybody loves bacon (the meat of the Gods). And now we can bathe with bacony goodness. This should be viewed as more of a jackass experiment than a “how to” by a soapmaking expert. I just wanted to see if it was possible to make soap from bacon fat. [...]

The second martini seemed like a good idea at the time. Was that your alarm or were tiny jackhammers drilling potholes into your head? On days like this, Diet Rockstar isn't going to be enough. Morning After Rescue Gel by Nickel.

by Heather Paper A friend of mine, a third-grade teacher, was recently lamenting that school will be starting in just a few days. Call me crazy, but I’m just a little bit envious. Each year at this time, I watch moms and kids storm the stores to stock up on fresh school supplies. And I [...]

I found myself stranded in Issaquah the other day and did the only sane thing a girl could do to pass the time: eat and shop. I was lured into the cutest boutique, Daisy, in Gilman Village when I saw the most awesome little bag hanging chicly off a mannequin in the window. Now I can’t speak for [...]

Even if the economy (and a shortage of frequent flyer miles) has put the kibosh on traveling to Europe anytime soon, you can still enjoy one of the best aspects: the souvenirs. When I’m traveling via armchair, one of the places I like to start is ...

Now I ask you, how truly SWEET is this?!? This arrived in my Facebook account today from a friend with a note which simply read "new purse for Vicki". Designed to work with the bladder of boxed wine (now now, don't get all hoity-toity on me now, there are some fairly decent boxed wines out there these days), you simply take the wine bag out of the box and slide it into the Wine Coat.

I read something the other day I thought was worth sharing. It recommended we change our password(s) to something very personal, yet inspirational. For example, if you are a closet food critic, you might choose foodieatlarge1. The investment of time is relatively insignifcant to implement, and the long terms benefits could, well, could inspire you to be what you might have been.

Like any design-oholic worth their salt, I’m constantly looking for new products that make me sit up and take notice. An innovative wall covering? Fabulous! A new twist on on traditional design? Great! But my most recent discovery knocks it out of the park.

It doesn’t matter whether or not the groundhog saw his shadow last week. Just for the record, Punxsutawney Phil did see his while, here in the South, General Beauregard Lee did not. But even as record-setting snowstorms continue to pound the country, there are certain signs of spring. Specifically, birds are migrating back at a record pace.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by color. While my friends’ rock stars tended to be musical types, mine was Josef Albers. While Albers was best known for his geometric paintings, he applied the same precision and logic to furniture while serving as director of the Bauhaus workshop.

The weather outside is frightful. Good ol’ Mother Nature has a wicked sense of humor and I, for one, am not laughing. But I have found a way to deal with Her. I’ve decided to stay in bed until spring. Of course, I’ll need to be surrounded by a few creature comforts.

iCamera–Pro-style Lenses for Phone Pics

By a show of hands, how many of you have an uncharged camera battery toiling lifelessly in your dusty, digital camera? Uh-huh. Second question, off-the-top-of-your-head, do you even know where your digital camera is at this very moment? Yeah I thought so, because I’m right there with ya’. I find I use the awesome little camera in my iPhone all of the time now (which has superseded usage from: a. occasionally  b. some of the time and  c. most of the time). As a matter of fact, on a recent three-week trip to France this past summer, I found the best (and most) photos I took were on my iPhone and not my relatively new, point and shoot digital camera.

If only I had been aware of the pro-style lenses from Photojo! These high-clarity glass cell phone lenses are like pro lenses for your camera phone, giving you crisp and clear shots every time. With three options to consider: Fisheye, Telephoto, and Macro/Wide Angle Cell Phone Lenses, these finely constructed lenses transform your ordinary phone photos into wide, up-close, and super zoomed masterpieces.

And the best news is they work with any camera phone and attaching them is easy breezy (although do see their disclaimer for attaching to the iPhone 4)! A detachable magnetic ring sticks to your cell, providing a sturdy, shake-free hold between the lens and your phone.

Prices range from $20-$25 per lens. www.photojo.com ….and don’t forget, only 78 days until Christmas!
