It’s Black Friday. And we are loving this winter white coat from Talbots. Just looking at it makes us happier about waking up early, braving the crowds, fixing a turkey sandwich, taking a nap, braving more crowds, strategically hiding our packages, having a repeat of Thanksgiving dinner… minus the relatives… and sleeping in on Saturday.
Daily Confession

We were just saying someone needs to pump some cool into the dinner napkin. Okay, maybe not. But how great is it that someone did? Necessary? Not in the least. But an instant hit sure to be on everyone’s lips? Most definitely.
Daily Confession

We are Trypto-Phanatical for Thanksgiving. So we’re going to spend the next few days sharing some cool things we’ve found that will make everyone thankful they got invited to your place for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah… whatever you choose to celebrate. First up, the chicest of chic martini glasses, complete with hook to keep that unruly olive in place. We fell for this one gin, line and sinker.
Daily Confession
Speaking of luck… happenstance spokesperson Malcolm Gladwell has released What the Dog Saw, a book of essays originally written for The New Yorker. If you’re like us and love the thinking behind Blink, The Tipping Point and Outliers, but sometimes find yourself moving on to something a little less “heady”, this book of essays will be a welcome read.
Daily Confession

Call us contrarians, but we’re keeping our eyes out for things that bring us good luck today. Things like…
Sneezing 3 times before breakfast
An itch on the top of your head
Stepping on your shadow
A black cat walking toward you
An itchy right hand [but don't itch it!]
Walking in the rain
A ladybug landing on you
A bird doing his business on you
Carrying an acorn in your pocket
Your clothes being caught on a bush
A picture of an elephant with its trunk toward the door
Sleeping on un-ironed sheets
A new moon
Happy-go-lucky Friday the 13th.

We say… mix things up a little. Run without your music. Drink white wine with your filet. Invite only people that don’t know each other to your next party. Wear this adorable hooded puffer vest over a chic belted dress. And go out to dinner on Thanksgiving.
Daily Confession

Talk about personality. Break out these Rorschach coasters at your next shindig and you may discover your neighbor’s innermost thoughts, your boyfriend’s fascination with squirrels, and why your sister-in-law has absolutely no sense of humor. Or… maybe just use them as pretty coasters.
