A stolen computer and a holiday mission

Apologies for my absence from posting here. My computer was stolen a couple weeks ago and I have been trying to recoup photos and other precious memories stored on my computer. Being the photo-obsessed person that I am, I researched ways to ensure my momentos can be kept safely. I needed a safety deposit box for pictures, let's just say. With lil T growing up so quickly, I have been an amateur photographer and needed a place to store the pictures. I decided to go with flickr. For US$24.95, you get unlimited storage space and basic editing tools. It's my new mission and if you never thought of backing up your photos, you might want to check it out!

For the knife thrower in you

The Ex knife holder by Raffaele Iannello is eye catching and modern, probably only if you don't have a kid under 10 in your house though. The set includes 5 knifes (Chef knife, Bread knife, Carver, Utility knife, and Parer) and includes 25 year warranty. The magnetized slots secure the knifes in the holder.

$134.95 at Rolo
Buy online or at store: 6-24 Belair St., Toronto

(Available in Black, Red, Chrome, and Gold)

Countdown 'til Christmas!

It's finally December! It's my favorite month of the year, luv Christmas! Despite my annual efforts to finish my Christmas shopping before December, it never happens. Oh well... I plan to feature gift-worthy products on this blog until Christmas day, maybe you can get an idea or two from my blog.

These Alphabet and City Art pieces from pennypeople are really something. I bought one for lil T's nursery recently. They're $18-25 plus shipping - unique and affordable.
