Cushy Comfort

I couldn't pass these up at Dick's last week - cushy, comfortable flip-flops that perfectly match my team uniform for our tennis league.  These are the Chilwyanda FitFOAM Slides by Adidas.  These lightweight  slides feature a leather upper and FitFOAM midsole that "contours to your feet like a custom mold".  They come in several pretty color combinations, but this combination was the perfect match to my tennis skirt and will by a treat for my feet after a hard fought summer match.

Two for Tea

Use TWO of these tea bags, with one family size tea bag of regular black tea FOR the most delicious Iced TEA.  It took some experimenting to get it right - using just the Passion Fruit and Papaya tea was a little too sweet, a little too fruity - but combine two of these tea bags with a family size tea bag of your favorite black tea and it is just right, refreshing with just a touch of the tropics.  You can find Private Selection Passion Fruit and Papaya Black Tea at Kroger, or in our area, Payless Grocery Stores.

Colorful and Classic

Ok, I don't need a new watch, and most days I don't even wear a watch, but IF I needed one and IF I wore one, this would be my new pick - the Carousel Watch by Kate Spade.  So cute, so classic, so colorful with a fun saying engraved inside.  The only think I don't like would be having to pick a color - I like them all!

Buzzing about Beehive RUSKS

Tucked in a Christmas gift of cheese from the Beehive Cheese Company came a little package of Utah Cherry-Rosemary Beehive RUSKS.  How nice, crackers to go with our cheese.  Oh, what an understatement!  It is a serious faux pas to call these RUSKS, "crackers", for they are so much more than that.  The hive-shaped RUSKS are loaded with nuts and seeds, a touch of rosemary, and bit of sea salt, and some dried cherries for a touch of sweetness.  The RUSKS paired perfectly with the Beehive Cheese Company cheeses that we received in the gift box.  I loved the RUSKS so much that I placed an order for some more, along with some cheeses, for myself and to give as a hostess gift.  A little bit different, and so very good.

PS.  I don't know why the company calls them RUSKS, in all caps, but they do, and so I did, too.

Chubby Sticks!

I tried this product based on a recommendation from my friend Christine who says she can not live without it!  I think that's a pretty strong recommendation so I wanted to try it for myself, and so far, I have not been disappointed.  The Clinique Chubby Stick is a moisturizing lip balm made with mango and shea butter that comes in eight natural looking tints.  It moisturizes and protects your lips while giving you just a touch of natural color.  Picking just one color was a tough decision as they are all so pretty, but I decided on the Super Strawberry shade to keep in my bag as my go to balm this spring.

Just Like Elvis... Blue Suede Shoes!

I have been (patiently?) waiting to show you my latest favorite thing, because it is not for me and I did not want to spoil the birthday surprise for someone....  Aren't they cute?  Blue Suede Toms!  Love the ballet flat style! Love the two-tone blue suede!  And you can feel good about your purchase knowing someone in need is also receiving a new pair of shoes.  The style is called Eliana, and I ordered them from the Toms website. From all reports they are cute and comfy, and the birthday girl seems quite happy with her gift.

I have had this Nike ad as my computer background for years.  It speaks for itself.
