    I just love those polka dot tea towels. I really think that tea towels are my new addiction ;-)

    Since I needed something else to covet, and I'm getting ready to travel to Ireland in November, I've got my eye on the Rings Passport Wallet.

    I pretty much die and go to heaven every time i have tea forte teas...these were some of the first "high class" tea varieties I ever tried - and ever since I've had a hard time settling on average ol' basic tea at restaurants.

    Since I am getting married this summer I am feeling very nostagic and love the polka dot apron (Donna Reed for the modern girl!) But then again I love the Multi Dot Tote and Travel Accessories and Murval Summer City Totes (my future hubby thinks I already have enough bags, but when can a girl really have enough bags?!)

    I love the site! I like the flower handbag when you first arrive at the site, but I really love the pink/brown travel bag. I may have to buy it. Happy Mother's Day to me! :)

    Thanks, Tara! I'm going to go check out the rest of the site now...

    So many wonderful things, it's hard to choose a favorite. I love the crystal decanting pitcher. Hmm, may have to get one for myself.

    A few moms I know would love some of the spa items or the travel totes. I think my mom would adore the Murval Brown and Pink one. *off to buy mom's day items*

    I adore the Florence File Folders. I like to be organized, but it isn't always fun. Instead of staying organized, which requires devotion, I would rather sit at my computer and write romance novels. I have notes everywhere for 'what pertains to her', 'what pertains to him' and 'what pertains to the other characters.' If I had those fancy Florence File Folders I'd be more inclined to want to stay organized. I would look forward to being organized, and my romance novels might get published because I was organized! Thanks, Tara, for sharing.

    i love the spoons. They cheer me up and I think I could use them to feed my baby who is just now learning to eat on his own. I also love the robe since I am an insomniac and could use the comfort on cold nights.
