Udderly cool alarm clocks featuring loud cows
I’m not a morning person. I value my sleep and my beauty rest more than anything. What really gets my goat is being woken up during my most peaceful stages of REM by irritating monotone alarm clocks (especially if I’m in the middle of my favorite recurring dream starring me and Hugh Jackman on a stranded beach in Australia…yum).
As much as I value my sleep, I also value a good laugh, which is exactly what I get when I wake up to my Wacky Waker alarm clock from Nasco Farm and Ranch.

Shower them with the baby gift item every Mom & Dad needs
Where were these things when my son was born? Warning to unsuspecting parents-to-be. When you have a baby boy, no one prepares you for the worst.

I am such a good American. I’ve done my research, watched the debates and voted early not one, but two weekends ago. I’ve made no effort to hide my political affiliations and have shouted the name of my Presidential candidate of choice across the rooftops. I bubbled in that voting bubble with great pride feeling a swell of hope in my heart for a new chapter of American history. Since the early stages of Election ’08, this Barack Obama Action Figure from Entertainment Earth has been a permanent fixture on my desk, reminding me that change is only one vote away.

Create your own pop up books make totally fun games for kids
I would love to write the story of my life. It would document the thrilling tale of a sassy redhead with amazing adventures that rival any experienced by that freckle-faced Pippi Longstocking.

I think I’ll get started on a rough draft with this “Create your Own Pop-Up Book” that takes the cake when it comes to Fun kids games from Met Kids.

FAO Schwarz has brought back Monchhichi
Get ready kids and campers for an “I Love the 80′s” flashback. When I was a little girl, I was obsessed. Not with Scott Baio from Charles in Charge, not with Ralph Macchio from The Karate Kid (That’s a lie. I proudly owned the Karate Kid headband and did attempt to perform that crazy flying kick when Julie Pickler tried to make me eat sand…it didn’t turn out well). I wasn’t even obsessed with Cabbage Patch Kids. In fact, I thought they beared too much of a resemblance to the Quaker Oats guy, only with ugly, unmanageable yarn hair. No, my obsession dear friends was with Monchhichi. Read the rest of this entry »
