Just went to Trader Joe’s and bought a bag of avocados. I am making this tonight. Ole!

Life’s Little Handbook.
This is my little handbook. I bought it for my husband as a stocking stuffer two years ago, and have gotten my $9.00 back tenfold. I read two pages each morning before I start my day. It’s filled with little reminders of how to live in a more simple, joyful manner. I also gave a copy of this to all of my co-workers for Christmas, and many have told me that it has affected them in many positive ways. I truly believe that if everyone picked up a copy… the world would be a better place.

Watching every penny.
Remember this post from Thursday? Well, in flipping through my ELLE DECOR last night I spotted this little guy from Restoration Hardware. Grant it, it is on sale- but you are still looking at up to $800 including S&H.. Or, you can buy this little guy for $302.94 (incl. S&H.) That $500 in savings will pay for all of the hardware that I’ve been holding off on buying for my kitchen cabinets….

Nailed it.
Nailheads are everywhere. They seem to be all the rage right now- and I couldn’t be happier. After searching the ends of the Earth for a bench to put at the foot of our bed, I found this little number here to match the detailing on our headboard. At $299 + $2.95 shipping you can’t beat the price tag!
Stay tuned as there will be some BIG changes to this room including the bench…

Score!
After stumbling upon this pillow in last month’s Lonny, I became quite obsessed. Turns out it was a needlepoint print that was sold at Urban Outfitters last year. After contacting UO customer service, I found out that they have no plans to restock. Apparently this little sucker was was popular in the mid-seventies is now labeled as “vintage”… (Don’t even get me started….) In my typical obsessive-compulsive nature, I stalked and stalked until I found one. Amazingly enough one was being sold on Craig’s List right in my backyard for… wait for it….. $10… Score! Now I have one for my very own, the only thing I need to figure out now is 1.) How I am going to frame it and 2.) Where to put it.
