Lego Amazingness

The kid in me loves these Lego water bottles. These would be a great gift or stocking stuffer for any of your friends that grew up loving Legos!

Travel Bag

I have been carrying around my toiletries bag for about 6 years and it is from Target. I love it but it has seen better days. I would be all for buying a newer version of it but they don't seem to make one. I was reading some random blog and their suggestions for holiday gifts today and came across this beauty from Stephanie Johnson. I have no idea who Stephanie is but I like her style. Alas I won't be purchasing this. Please see previous budget post as to reason why. But if any of my readers need a kick ass bag, I will be very jealous if you make this yours!

Airline Travel

Yes Victoria Beckham, I also wear this same outfit when traveling. Nothing says comfort like a tight dress and high boots.

On a separate note, that baby Harper is precious and always has cute outfits on. Watch out Suri!

Oh Anthro

Why do you do this to me? You know I am not shopping.

Holiday Decorations

I don't think I'll be decorating my little abode for the holiday season. If I was going to this wreath would be the perfect entrance to a winter wonderland.

A budget

Thursday I started something called a budget. I am sure some of you have heard of this crazy thing. Something had to change. After a not fun convo with my mother about money that ended in me crying I put my thinking cap on. Here is a crazy idea: I am going to use cash. I really should write a book with this killer never been considered idea. I have $100 a week to use for food, fun, groceries etc. Sorry friends if you wanted to hang out and do something expensive. I have seriously planned out my weeks with allotments of money for things on my schedule. Friends I am having lunch or a meal with, fear not I already budgeted you in for that week. Otherwise I am being cheap so who wants to meet for coffee or frozen yogurt?? It's really not very fun having to do this but it's necessary. I am almost 29 yrs old and must get serious about my finances. I was talking about this with my BFF on Wednesday night. I said one week I am seeing Beauty and the Beast, the musical and between the ticket price and drinks before it was half my budget. I also said I guess when you are poor you don't see the arts and she said yeah, you are probably right. This made me very sad. I love the arts. I will just eat ramen to go to the arts.

Also, if you hear of me selling my bone marrow, plasma, or eggs, please stop me. But really how much do eggs go for??

Yuck

Anyone else seen the ad for Patron XO Cafe? I can think of nothing that sounds worst. Coffee Liquor made with tequila. Gag me with a spoon.
