Time to Toss the Chia Pet Out the Window

Leave it to the Japanese to make cute little planters like these. I hate those damn Chia Pets that are everywhere during the Holidays. Why can’t we have more adorable stuff like these?  I just placed an order for a set of them for my office. I can’t wait until they arrive!

Nyokki means grow in Japanese, and that’s exactly what these Nyokki Pets do! These little pet plants are adorable and original and they are hand made in Japan from glazed ceramic. They are shaped like eggs with fabric legs. Filled with a growing media and rye grass seeds, these Nyokki pets are easy to grow - seeds germinate and grass grows to full height in less than two weeks. You can style your Nyokki’s “hair” or cut it and watch it grow again! Comes as a set of two matching Nyokki pets. Choose from Monkey, Chickee, Froggie, Panda, and Piglet.

Great Excuse to Eat Yummy Goodies!

How could we round out our 7 days of St. Patrick’s day goodies without a little chocolate?! So, today I present you with Chocolate Shamrock Cookies.

Good luck and good taste go hand in hand with these delicious cookies. You get 24 hand-dipped cookies in a thick coating of pure milk chocolate. These chocolate sandwich cookies are topped with a lucky green icing shamrock and they arrive in a wooden shaker-style box with green tissue and a green ribbon. Cool! Do you think they actually eat these in Ireland? You know the Irish don’t drink green beer either, that seems to be just an American thing.

Pink Dishwasher!!!!

Oh no they didn’t.  Oh yes they did! Smeg, the company with the really odd name, has done it again. This time we get a funky retro style dishwasher in baby pink. Yes, ladies.. you got the refridgerator, right? Well, girlfriend you now need the matching dishwasher!  I want one myself. Hell, at this rate I’ll never get remarried as no man will want to live in my Barbie dreamhouse. *laugh* I also like the baby blue dishwasher as well.

Fry it up in a Pink Pan… Italian style

Pink with polka dots.. the ultimate kitchen accessory.  I am so buying this.

I’m going to turn this house into the girliest place on Earth at the rate I’m going - but you have to admit pink cookware is kind of cool.
