Shopaholic? Me?
After my mum’s disability appeal to prove that she needed disability status, I bought her this sticker (see below). I thought it lightened the situation and it put a smile on her face. The reality is that the disadvantages of being disabled are horrific. I push my twins around in a...
Breast milk is the best colon cleanser ever. The babies poop like there is no tomorrow. It is liquid and actually quite sweet smelling but it gets everywhere. I am just so grateful that modern nappies are so good. I think back to when my brothers were babies and we had...
I am not sure if you heard of Jenny Craig. Apparently they launched one of the first diet plans in the US. However from jenny craig reviews what they do is supply you with a meal plan. I can understand how this was helpful in the past but the reality is...
In today’s Daily Express, they were issuing a warning about slimming pills. They claimed that “Alli could trigger a raft of issues, including pancreatitis, kidney stones, liver problems or severe fits in people with epilepsy“.The reality is that these tablets came with the side effects listed, and you should be aware of...
I did pop to Boots and picked up some vitamins. They have a really good range of “change one thing” advice. It includes a weight loss program, quitting smoking, looking great, feeling happier and feeling healthier. The point is to change one thing and not everything, so you would need to...
I was reading prenatalvitamins.org and it made me realise that when I was pregnant I was taking loads of care of myself taking folic acid and iron and now I’m not. It’s no wonder that I am exhausted (lack of iron?), have weak nails (lack of calcium?) and feeling under the weather,...
Broke & Beautiful's RSS-Luxe
There are two things bringing me to my knees this week: 1) Influenza. I hate calling it “The Flu” – it is not a gangster rapper, it is a highly respectable illness that has captured the lives of many people. Not a particularly cheery thought, but it is more hardcore than...
This post could go one of two ways: - It could be a post about brutal, insane, murderous, instable romance a la Quentin Tarantino (& Brad Pitt in a most hilarious role), or… - It could actually be about concentrated, pure romance. Fortunately, because there are so few blood-and-guts-related garments or accessories to...
Jenny Han: Just In Time for Tea
As we all know, my true love obsession with Bad Joan is ever-present. The more designers they add, the more I adore them. The more categories they cover, the more I swoon. The smallest adjustments made to their inventory have me on my toes and, yes, there was someone named “Joan”...
When Glamour and Kitsch Collide
I was browsing last month’s Lucky Magazine this morning, and came across the most beautiful, delicate necklace on one of the “I’m Loving This” pages. It was almost a broken tulip shape, with the bud at the chain, and a very elegant, curvy stem. I discovered that it came from Demitasse...
Wish List Update: The Perfect Bag
I know, it’s been all of five minutes since I posted about my Official Wish List (capitals necessary). Honestly, I’ve been compiling that wish list for months (literally, it’s been a major concern here at the B&B B&B) and finally got the decisive energy to buy a bag that had...
It’s possible that the “Spirit of the New Year” – resolutions and such – is nothing more than necessity masquerading as some supernatural inspiration that only comes once a year, right after Santa. Either way, I like it, and as long as it’s all progressive – I have no complaints. Well, that’s...
Want Not
Get your shoes at. . . Target?
Yes, it’s time to stock up on shoes through the Target Daily Deals! Although that’s really only the starting place; yes, they have four pairs of deeply-discounted shoes in the deals, today. But this week all shoes are buy one pair, get the second half off. (Apparently Target turned into...
Why yes, I would like another coupon
I know that Justice seems to do a 40% off coupon pretty regularly, but it just figures that last week I wanted one and couldn’t seem to find a current one. No matter! Now we can use code 774 for all purchases of hip girly clothes through March 22nd, 2010,...
Hey y’all, thanks for your patience while posting remains a bit light (and I stay in bed sucking up antibiotics); I am trying to get vertical again as soon as possible. In the meantime, don’t forget that you have until just before midnight tonight to enter both contests that are running...
Dress pretty, hold the hoochie
If you’ve gone shopping for a dress lately you may have noticed something… namely, that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to buy a dress that isn’t cut up to here or down to there or requires a fancy bra or can’t be worn with any bra at all. Ahem. So what’s...
Wear pretty shoes to my funeral
Have I mentioned that I’m sick? I think I’m dying. I also think I’m fairly melodramatic, so maybe I’m not really dying. But it feels that way. Just in case I’m on my way out, it seems that 6pm.com has put all of my favorite shoe brands on sale today. Born,...

Mums Merry Gift Guide: Fine Arts and Learning for Kids
It’s no secret around these parts that we love music, books, arts & crafts. Lately, Noel has been doing LOTS of dot-to-dots and color by numbers. I’ve been amazed by the progress he’s made doing these. He’s learned numbers up to 50, and can visually tell us those numbers.Elliott found these...

Animals on Parade notecards from Sukie

Lies Maculan’s Dream Shop Opens
Organizing an exhibit around people’s dreams might seem nebulous; but Austrian artist Lies Maculan’s pop-up art installation, which opened last night in Chelsea, contains some very concrete desires. “Unexpected inheritance,” “sex with the ex,” and “wrinkle free” are just some of the 100-plus wishes represented in “The Dream Shop,” her...

An unusual development in the "no coverage for Karrie Webb on free-to-air digital tv" saga (see my Karrie, Women and Sport post). Days after the 2010 ANZ Ladies Masters Karrie's win suddenly hit the news.This could have occurred for a number of reasons:1. The networks forgot about the...
Wikipedia's definition about t-shirts describes a buttonless, collarless shirt in which to cover a person's torso. I define it as essential clothing.
