Isn’t this spatula cute?  These Sur La Table Gingham Spatula  are lightweight and are specially mold to the sides of the bowls and pans.  It features a versatile head that is curved on one side and flat on the other.   These Gingham Spatulas will definitely add some fun to your baking time.  They are BPA-free and heat resistant to 600 degrees Fahrenheit.

I could eat a horse

I like to say this every time when I am really hungry.   Well, this post is not about the saying.  Instead it is about a clever tool use for measuring spaghetti portions. The portion can be small, adult or” eat a horse”. For days that sometimes a handful of pasta ain’t enough.  Funny and cute eh?  It is available at Reykjavik Corner Store.  Available in green or plastic steel.

Getting Ready For Chinese New Year

The Chinese New Year is just days away.  There is so much to do at home.  I have only put up the lanterns and bought the pussy willow plant.  I have yet to get ready the red packets, spring clean the house, help a friend to look for ph meters, ironing and etc.  I hope to get everything done by Saturday.  One of the things I want to do is to decorate my basket with mandarin oranges, something like the photo below.  Nice?  Are you all ready to usher in the Year of the Dragon?

Sweet Cookie Bags

I am helping a friend to look for some ideas for her daughter’s birthday party which will be held next month.  Her daughter is turning 4.  While I was at Etsy, I chanced upon some very cute cookie bags and packaging which I think my friend could use since she intends to serve cookies at the party.   I really like them and I hope my friend does too.

Shoes I Heart

I am supposed to get some weight loss pills because I have been eating non-stop for the past 2 weeks but I got side-tracked a little when I discovered Thread Sense.  I am so in love with their shoe collection.  I know I know, I just bought myself a pair not too long ago but a woman can never have too many shoes.  Even when the shoe closet is bursting with shoes.  Here’s what I am eyeing for right now.

Band-Aids For The Fashionista

Love this fashion boo boos from Forever 21.  Nothing soothes or heal a cut better than a chic band-aid.   A packet of Fashion Boo Boos features polka dot, heart and bow prints.  There are 24 pieces in a packet ($4).  Psst…no one would know if you would like to fake a cut just so you can put a cute band-aid on your arm.  I know someone who does that once in a while.

Forever 21 Spring 2011

I was at Forever 21’s website just now to check out its latest collection when I saw a familiar style – Flared Jeans.  Are bell-bottoms making a comeback this year?   Well, I don’t really mind as long as it is not baggy jeans.  I know some people cannot stand bell bottoms after growing up in them. Pants or jeans with a slightly wider than boot cut with slimmer thigh and waist is pretty cool.  Skinny jeans fans need not worry though.  According to the fashion gurus, they are still around.  What about you? Do you like bell-bottoms?
