  • Wanted Wednesday: That Yoga Life

    August 14, 2013

    yoga life and goodsI was cruising around the Gaiam website earlier today and imagining myself as that person who rises early in the morning for 15 minutes of solitude and a routine yoga practice. I’ve only recently become a morning person, and I’ve never gotten into yoga. Clearing my head gets done by doing the dishes and my personal favorite form of a workout routine is learning choreography. Maybe it’s more that I’m drawn to the elements of life that many yogis are surrounded by. After all, you don’t need to do sun salutations in order the live a quiet life.

  • Wishlisted: Asian Beauty Products

    August 7, 2013

    asian beauty productsI’ve had these skincare products in my Amazon Wishlist for over a year now. I can’t decide if it’s the packaging that intrigues me, or the recommendations by various internet beauty gurus (probably a little of both). These face masks look fun too.

  • My Obsession With Shipping Containers and Earthly Views

    August 6, 2013

    shipping container homesMost of my dream home fantasies consist of obscenely large estates located in the dreamiest destinations, but lately homes made of shipping containers consume my brain. My thought is this: buy a big beautiful plot of land, build a super modern home out of industrial materials and minimalistic furnishings, live in it until my finances allow me a multi-million dollar estate. (And keep the container home for vacations!). Good idea, right?

    You can see more shipping container homes on my Pinterest board, if you’re into it too.

  • Food for Thought and Food in Your Garden

    August 2, 2013

    garden vegetablesI came across this article earlier in the week about a woman who maximizes her 100 square feet of garden space to produce $100’s of dollars worth of food. I’m definitely bookmarking for early next spring when I inevitably go back and forth with myself on what to grow and how much time I want to invest in it. A huge bounty of food in a pretty convincing reason.

    pinup catsI’m in the middle of switching files from my old desktop to a new laptop, and in the meantime I’m having difficulty with iPhoto and pulling photos for posts. For now these cats that look like pin-up girls will have to suffice.
