Tasty Tidbits

• My weekend was a pretty productive one. I let my kid go shirtless for half of Saturday. I did some decopauge like a beast. I had a banner day for steps on my Fitbit on Sunday. And I daydreamed about making designer style blankets out of vintage fabric.

• Unless you're living under a rock, you know that it's fashion week. Part of me likes to look at pretty pictures. Another part of me is sick of hearing about it. Another part of me threw up a little when I saw that there are now scalpers hocking passes to shows for exorbitant amounts of money IMO. I've been to Fashion Week. That sh!t is free if you're invited. The day I spend $1300 for a 15 minute fashion show? Oh wait, that won't ever happen. (via Gawker)

• I went to Michael's this past weekend to get another rotary blade for my Olfa and guess what party people? The roof had caved in due to snow. Enough is enough when my crafting is being affected. Not to worry though, my trip was not a total waste. I beebopped on over to Ulta and got my brows did with Benefit.

• Science confirms that Jamie Dornan will never live up to the Christian Grey of your imagination. Turns out women like reading about sex more than watching it. (via Marie Claire)

• I'm daydreaming about our beach vacation in June and obvi have been searching for shoes. Please tell me you think these are ugly or not? I can't tell. They have a crocheted upper. I feel so out of touch with all things fashionable.

• 19 Kids and Counting is coming back for a 9th season. And I ask Why, TLC, why?! And then I'll get sucked into an all day marathon with Jim Bob and the gang. Ugh and Jessa is so sweet. Oh and they all have kind hearts. You all know their kids will keep having kids and we will be watching them forever and ever... (via People)

• I am seriously obsessing over the new NUDA jewelry. Gale designed my wedding jewelry and to say she is my favorite, wouldn't be far fetched. She is still waiting to be discovered by the masses so this is my contribution.

• Yoga Reaches Out New England Yogathon is taking place Sunday April, 26th at the Field House at Gillette Stadium. I joined my yoga studio's team and am raising money for Yoga Reaches Out, Ben Speaks Louder than Words and Boston Children's Hospital. I have never done two 2 hour sessions in a day but I think it will be super fun and for a great cause! Want to help me secure a mat space and also help these awesome charities? You can visit my personal page here to make a donation of any size!

• I'm not usually a fan of support Kickstarter's unless they are for starting something that I feel is totally worthwhile and will help people. I changed my tune a little when I saw the yoga capris from Temple Flower so I "backed 'em" in the hopes that I will get a pair at a discount oh and will help them ramp up for production. Made in the USA.

• Is it bad that I am chomping at the bit to see what kind of sales Piperlime is going to have for Going Out of Business? It makes me feel like a fashion vulture.

• Hey Boston, need a snow worthy pick me up because we live in the Artic Tundra? Check out this guy ---> "Guy took my spot... so I put the snow back", because Yessssssssss and taking someone's spot is a d!ck move. (via Boston.com)
