I think the ‘funny earring’ topic will become a regular category on my blog.

I just had to share these unique earrings.

Introducing….toilet paper holder earrings!

The attention to detail in the white seed bead weaving is what impressed me most.

Holiday Deals!!

Despite being a clothes horse (or at least a clothes pony), there’s no way in the world I’m willing to subject myself to the consumerist craziness that is currently going on all over this country. The day after Thanksgiving is the busiest shopping day of the year in the US and, while I can seriously get behind the sales that go on, I have to question why anyone would want to stand in miserably long lines, get jostled on the streets, look through picked over racks, and be generally smothered by people and merchandise. I also have to wonder what it is about this country- is it a “national” thing?- that makes people feel the need to have more and more and more of everything. Quantity certainly seems to be the preference over quality on days like this.

For me, shopping is about an experience. It’s about having fun with friends and collecting pieces that make each day of my life a little more artistic or visually stimulating. Paying a fortune for that art or treating it like it’s the most important thing in my life seems silly. And so, on this day when so many people are literally fighting over a dress or some boots or the newest toy, I’m happy jamming in my apartment in my pajamas, enjoying the things I already have.

If you can’t conscience the loss of the opportunity for mega-sales, however, here are a few online options to keep you feeling appropriately thrifty while still getting a good deal on things you might be buying this holiday season.

1: Modcloth: In addition to free ground shipping on order over $75, for four days (Friday to Monday) Mod Cloth will be offering discounts on select items. From their stock of vintage, retro, and really clever clothing and accessories Modcloth will chose 50 different pieces for each day to offer at up to 40% off. While you really have to be quick to access the vintage items (they’re gone in minutes!) there’s still plenty to choose from for you retro lovers. Here are a few of my favorites:

Poinsettia Coat: $84.99 to $67.99

Battalion Jacket: $79.99 to $59.99

Open Shutter Shift Dress: $117.99 to $93.99

Urban Escape Tee: $29.99 to $23.99

The Fresh Boots in Gwen: $129.99 to $103.99

2: Ruche: Enjoy 15% off on Friday and Monday at Ruche, “a modern boutique with a vintage touch” that’s already well known for its reasonable prices.

Butternut Squash Peacoat by Tulle: $59.99

Vintage Print Cardigan by Scrapbook: $39.99

Saphire and Roses Top: $39.99

Black Shimmy Sequin V-neck Dress: $35.99

Black Viola Wool Cap: $22.99

Military Studded Sudede Tall Boots: $49.99

Tall Whiskey Fold Rugged Boots: $44.99

3: Anthropologie: What kind of Anthro lover would I be if I didn’t mention their current sale? While it doesn’t seem to be geared specifically toward Black Friday, it’s more than exciting enough to warrant frantic internet searching for the perfect item. Here are some of my favorite, which can be delivered to your door for free if you spend over $150.

Tweed and Chiffon Dress: $188 to $49.95

Catalina Bolero: $118 to $59.95

Millbrook Cardigan: $148 to $79.95

Rose Garden Wrap: $78 to $39.95

Stretched Timber Belt: $48.00 to $29.95

Champlain Earrings: $42 to $19.95

And finally, while these stores aren’t offering specific Day-After-Thanksgiving discounts on their stock, they are offering free or discounted shipping:

-Vickerey: a great source for organic cotton clothing, workout accessories, and luxurious toiletries and stationary. DEAL: free shipping on orders over $75.

-Urban Outfitters: this mega-chain needs no introduction. DEAL: free shipping.

-Victoria’s Secret: everyone needs hot undies, right? Today you can get free shipping on orders over $100 and $30 off and order of $175.

White Friday

blueeyedheart — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 20:54:21 +0000

It’s unusual for me to have a chance to post on Fridays during the winter! Aren’t you just so thrilled and lucky to be reading this, then… It’s White Friday because I avoided the madness. Did you “do” Black Friday? Or, as my dad told me this morning, I took part in the “Great Sleep-In.” Apparently that’s what it’s now called when you don’t get up at 3.00 AM to wait on a crazy long line to buy something. Oh-kay.

And guess who didn’t do any schoolwork today? … Go, me. I rock.

My brother is making a kiddush tomorrow for my niece… as she’s the first girl after six boys, it will obviously be a bit of a major affair. I’m not excited about this for several reasons: Mr. J attends the same synagogue that my brother does, so I am very likely going to see him. Not something I’d choose to do in my spare time! And I don’t do catered food. I actually have this theory about caterer’s chicken soup… not that it’s relevant, since the kiddush is tomorrow afternoon, but still… I know it’s probably tumeric or something that makes their soup so yellow. But I maintain that their method of making soup consists of boiling up a vat of oil and tossing in some pieces of chicken and vegetables. It’s certainly greasy enough! Anyway, the point is, I really, really, really am not into that type of cuisine. If you can even call it that. I think it would be kind of a stretch. I need to solidify some alternate plan, here…

Anyway… I went to the gym today! ‘Twas lovely. Except that on my way home, it was impossible to navigate the aisles of the subway car; everyone was laden with their “bargain buys”! Craziness, I tell you.

I also went to the library, which is a real treat because I don’t usually have time to do that in the winter, either. I now have upwards of thirty books lined up on my treadmill… my world feels off-kilter if I don’t have a big stack of books waiting to be read! I like to know that whatever my mood, I will have something to read that will suit it.

Random question: Have you ever made your own nut butter? I tried to make cashew butter yesterday using my mini food chopper, but it was pretty much an abysmal failure. I can’t decide whether that’s because I only used a small amount of nuts, or if it’s because I have to stop the stupid thing every ten seconds. I couldn’t get anything finer than little pebbly pieces of cashew, so I (stupidly) added a bit of water. Yeah, didn’t work so well. I ended up chucking it all. Is there another, more practical way to do this that wouldn’t involve making a whole huge batch?!

Living on the edge, here… overnight oats soaked in yogurt with a “sell by” date of 11/26/09. I don’t generally mind the dates on nonperishables; dairy products are clearly the exception to that “rule”! I stirred in some apple butter spread in the morning.

The very last crushed bits from the bottom of the box of Kashi Island Vanilla… I wasn’t crazy about the biscuits, but I love this! Would it be nuts of me to buy a box of cereal and crush it to smithereens before eating it?! Something else I’m not crazy about: Almond Breeze. I can take it in small amounts in cereal, but I can’t drink it straight-up… gag me.

Today seems to be a breakfast day… I don’t think I’ve eaten anything but “breakfast food”!

Oat bran, unsweetened cocoa powder, Truvia, and chopped mandarin orange slices… I cooked this in orange-flavored water, but I think that may have been a bit of citrus overkill! True to form, I somehow managed to burn my tongue on this. Even though it wasn’t hot anymore by the time I ate it! One of the great mysteries of life, I suppose.

Since it’s already been established that I eat baby food, I bought this:

I would have mixed it with yogurt, but, well, I don’t have any more! I may or may not have eaten the entire container straight-up instead. (Well, excuse me… I’m a wee bit larger than the toddlers for whom it is intended! Hmph.) It was actually pretty good — kind of like a less “solid” version of Kashi Mighty Bites. This wouldn’t work in milk — it would dissolve in three seconds flat!

Just another one of the dozen pairs of earrings I bought earlier this week.

Tonight is another phase in the Turtle Mountain Experiment; it will be the Snickerdoodle flavor that we didn’t get to try last week.

Wish me luck! (I meant for the kiddush situation, not the ice cream… though that would be appreciated too! )

Have a great weekend!
