In honor of "Sweetest" day, and the fact that I am my own sweetest thing right now, I am recommending this lovely piece of fab that I stumbled upon.
Headed to a sample sale tomorrow with ThisNext Maven, Laura Sweet, and Blue Wild Indigo is supposed to be there. I'm going to spend a lot I can already tell. Cheers to Sweetest Day being my excuse!

I think every jr. high girl I went to school with had black wet-n-wild and some of that frosty gloss to match. It was the era of heavier-lined eyes, teased bangs, biker shorts, neon..wow that looks bad when written down.

Our newsletter topic about "Back to School, Back to Work," coupled with a surprise old skool radio play of Depeche Mode, had me thinking back to what I used to dig back in the day. First to mind was my favorite all white fans. The ones with the blue line just didn't fit the same, the sole was thinner. And I loved the clearn lines. They went with me everywhere. And growing up in San Diego they were accompanied with tan legs and shorts and skirts for most of the year. Ah the good old days.

Orbit Mojito Gum

Description
I remember reading about this specific flavor on ThisNext when it was first recommended but had never encountered it in person.
The ThisNext team had a fab demo table at LA-based Twiistup and I wanted to have snacks to hand out that had been prequalified by all you savvy ThisNexters. I headed off to a convenience store (after stocking up on mounds of Japanese candy) and lo-and-behold, there it was. Mint Mojito flavored Orbit! I snatched up several packs to add to the goodie bowl.
At the event I told a visitor about it. He had heard of it too but never tried it. I immediately gave him a piece and he promptly unwrapped it and began to chew. He looked at me and started nodding hishead, "Mmm. you know it's really good and it does remind me of a mojito!" (In a kid-friendly way of course.) I snagged a pack to take home and now I sit typing this post chomping happily away.
If you encounter this gum, buy it. It's a nice upgrade from all those mint and bubblegum options out there. Only drawback is that the flavor doesn't last as long as the mint, but hey, it's Mojito, I'm not going to complain.
(It's also great for chewing at 3:00p when those snacky feelings hit and you're trying to avoid the meeting leftovers in the kitchen.)

Description
"What is THAT?" I said, while pointing frantically at the floor where something small was crawling its way across, making a beeline for the sofa where it would likely disappear until I went to sleep when I would wake with it on me.
As I began to reach for a large book to squash it my dear friend Lucy yelled, "Wait! Wait!" and then disappeared down the hall. When she came back she had one of these bug vacuumn's in her hand but from Sharper Image in a white/light blue combo. She vacuumed that little sucker up, trapped him in the observatory portion and then relocated it outside to live another day.
The bug vacuumn is designed as a toy for kids to better examine insects they collect. It also, apparently, works as a tool for adults that don't like bugs, don't want to touch them and don't want to hurt them.

Why, oh why, is this album so flipping good? Beautiful, haunting, happy, relaxing... overall good listening music for just about any mood. A new fave I can already tell.
This is going with me to Playa del Carmen so I can slip into a Feist-y world while sipping my patron and gazing out at fine looking men and perfect clear blue water.
Ah, life is good.

Andy Sernovitz knows his stuff and thanks to this book now I know it too.
Althought a lot of it is not "new" it is a great reminder and incredibly motivating. This past week I hit chapter 4 in the WOM book and was practically pumping my fist in the air while yelling, "Yes, exactly! This is what we need to be doing!"
ThisNext is full of interesting users with passionate voices and unique viewpoints. How do we, as a company, reach them to let them know how valued they are and give them opportunities to amplify their voice? Andy's book has given me a ton of ideas.
Be on the lookout ThisNext'ers...we got a lot in store for you.

KINeSYS Sun Block

Description
We received travel-sized samples of KINeSYS at ThisNext awhile ago. I'd never had an occassion to put it to the test until last weekend when I went to blazing hot Palm Springs.
I had thrown a few different travel sized products in my bag: two different sprays (one a non-fragrance) and also a travel-sized stick of sunblock for the areas of the face.
When I pulled them out for my friends to look at one of them started freaking out about how cool it was that it had Parasol 1789 in it. She says that she never burns when she uses sun screen with this ingredient.
Researchers at Penn's Department of Dermatology and other universities have found that the addition of PARSOL 1789 -- a patented UVA filter recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration -- to sun-screen products may protect the skin against the full spectrum of those damaging UVA rays.
Whatever it was, it worked. KINeSYS didn't drip in my eyes, didn't leave a sticky dirty feeling when it dried and best of all, didn't give me a sunburn!
I strongly recommend the travel size because days later I was in my car and stuck in traffic and felt one half of my body getting a reluctant tan through my car window. Having worked so hard in Palm Springs I wasn't about to get car-tan so I grabbed the bottle out of the purse and gave myself a few quick squirts and all was right with the world, I mean my tan, again.

Zen Rabbit Cookies

Description
I love cookies. I do not discriminate (well maybe against ones with nuts) so when I received a box of the Zen Rabbit cookies I tore into them with glee. What would they taste like? Would they really be all that the site testimonials said?
A big fan of the butter cookie the Zen Rabbit cookies remind me of a gourmet fortune butter cookie...that's flat...and perfectly crispy..and that doesn't really taste like a fortune cookie. They come individually wrapped so good for portion control and for freshness. The light airy taste smacks of traditional Norwegian cookies like Sunkaga,Yulekaga & Krumkaga, cookies I've helped make from scratch and that take alllll day to do.
Packaging is simple yet classy. Order some up for a holiday party, for your next BBQ, for family or clients.

This is, hands down, my favorite business magazine. It's entertaining, informative and always has a nice balance of established companies and up and comers.
The writing is witty and thoughtful, layout is nice and visual. I always walk away with interesting investing ideas and insight into trends that affect my business. If you know someone who likes to keep up on business reading get 'em a subscription to Business 2.0.
If nothing else, get it for the annual 101 dumbest moments in business. It's hysterical, as long as your company isn't the one getting called out!

It's a watch. No it's a cuff. No it's a statment. Really, it's all three and I like it. I guess you could say this is a ThisNext exclusive since no one has heard of the NOW watch, yet.
Morgan, the designer, wears it very well but I was a touch skeptical as to how it would look on a female arm so we put it on Fashion Kitty. The response was, and I quote, "Bomb Ass."
I agree.
As David Lynch often says "The world is as you are," and as someone who is constantly on the go and always looking ahead at what's coming it's an excellent reminder to stop myself and be present.
Rumor has it other styles will be offered but for NOW, pick up one of these. We all know someone who could benefit from the message.

I can't explain exactly why I love this album but it has something to do with the perfect combo of no vocals, just the blending of so many beats and sounds. It's not a dancing album like you would normally expect from Sasha. Wavy gravy makes me warm and fuzzy whenever i hear it.
And cloud cuckoo, immortal and wavy gravy were blaring through my ipod when i walked around Manhattan once. Having that music as all I heard while being surrounded by rushing traffic, people everywhere and tall buildings blocking out the sun was a little surreal. It felt like an honest to God movie moment.
