Digital Scale For Weighing Luggage Bags

While looking for a replacement Hinkley lighting, I stumbled upon this cool travel accessory called Weigh To Go.   This multi-functional accessory is compact and features a digital scale, identification tag and a built-in lock to prevent theft.  How cool huh?  I know this is something which my in-laws from Toronto should get because each time they come back for a vacation, they will buy so many things to take home.  Then they will be looking all over the place for a weighing scale to weigh their luggage bags.  With the Weigh To Go, they do not have to worry about overweight luggage.  The Weigh To Go is available at Quirky.com

i heart

It was the long weekend and I did not do much for the past few days, except going out with some friends on Saturday night and a barbecue last night.  I spent the mornings and afternoons doing some work online, reading about irvingia weight loss and then surfed the internet for a while.  That was when I chanced upon some gorgeous clothes, bags and shoes on Callypso-Celle.com.  I so heart them.

Flexible Roll & Go Keyboard

A friend of mine came back for a vacation recently.  Guess what he brought back as a gift for my hubby?  A cool navy Roll & Go Keyboard.  I have never seen anything like this before.  It is a flexible full-sized keyboard and made with high-quality silicone. It fits any USB or PS/2 interface.  Another great thing about this keyboard is its silicone material which is waterproof and allows extra-quiet typing.  There is no question who is using this keyboard in our home now.

How To Protect Your Kiwi Fruit

kiwi

I buy a lot of kiwis for my 5-year-old as kiwis are a great source of Vitamin C.  When we we go out, I would bring the fruit along just so that she won’t skip her fruit intake for the day.  However, it is not easy to keep the kiwis from not getting bruised or squashed in the bag.   Yesterday while surfing the net, I found just the coolest thing to protect the kiwi.  It is the Kiwi Guard which is a sturdy case to protect the fruit and it also holds a cute lime green cutlery to prepare and eat the kiwi.  This is the coolest thing  next to natural treatment of eczema. I am definitely going to get this Kiwi Guard.  It is available at Random-Good-Stuff.com.
