The best play food that's not really play food

At Christmas time, my 2 year old said she wanted three things: a baby doll, an elephant with a pink bow, and cherries. I wasn’t sure what to make of the cherries request. Fresh cherries?

A few Marimekko goodies

Maybe it’s the bright colors of Mexico on my mind that have me loving all these Marimekko goodies. Here are a few that make me happy and don’t cost a fortune… This little Keiju bag would be perfect for helping me find my lipstick in my ginormous purse (comes in other colors too). $14.95 at […]

Bunny Love

I’m just now starting to get over my anti-bunny feelings, since my son was bitten by Fluffy the class pet. It’s true, I’ve seen plenty of cute bunny stuff lately and haven’t been able to write about any of it. But in the spirit of Easter, check out this sweet little bunny dress. If you […]
