Viva Pinata 2: Trouble in Paradise (Xbox 360)
First to recommend
Description
I shed a tear as I make this recommendation... a tear of joy that there exists another, better Viva Pinata, a tear of sadness that I won't be buying Viva Pinata 2 anytime soon because I have what some might call a "problem" with this romancing-and-gardening digital paradise, in that "leaving the house" didn't happen much when I was involved with Viva Pinata 1.
But you, you should get this game. It is visually exquisite, and it involves exotic mating dances, flora, creatures of all stripes, spots and scales, the chiaroscuro of good-versus-evil and candy, mountains and mountains of crunchy dime-store suckers. Oh, and also shopping.
...And also, and here's the kicker, you never never ever lose. And you're never doing the wrong thing. It just goes on and on and on (and on) (for 6 hours) (I'd know).
As they say on Pinata Island, "Filled with fun... FILLED WITH FUN!"

Petunia Pickle Bottom Rubicon Rucksack - Black Buffalo Leather
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
Petunia Pickle Bottom, I quite like your black Rubicon Rucksack. It has a removable, washable lining, which those of us who think transporting salad dressing in our work bag is a good idea appreciate. And it's all lovely and rustic. And it has a little single hand lift-y thing in the back. And it's really affordable ($235).
It looks a little square and stiff, but I'm sure riding my bike over it a few times (pretty much an eventuality, let's be honest) would solve that.

Zero-waste moving (if you live in L.A. or O.C.)!
Easy:They bring you a pile of plastic bins, you move, they pick them up at your new pad.
Cheap: a buck a box a day.
Righteous... In every sense of the word.

KODAK Zi6 Pocket Video Camera

Description
I'm not necessarily ready to flip my Flip, but if I hadn't already committed, I'd go with this Kodak dealie instead: waaay more recording space, better quality video, same hand-held film-on-the-fly party-party-fun format and USB plug-in ease. And same price.

Blanket Stitch Twill by Calvin Klein Home - Shop By Brand
First to recommend
Description
Sheets aren't all about thread count, people. What you're reallly looking for is a certain je ne sais quoi that makes you say, "Yummy, let's dive in." Calvin, I'll cannonball into your blanket-stitch shimmery silvery sheets any day. No one does greys like you do greys. And no one brings it in the fiber quality and luxe-y, satin-y finish department quite like you. And, while we're chatting I should, um, apologize about that time when I henna tattoed my guy's name on my bootie and didn't wear boxers to bed and, well, branded you without asking. Because, apparently, while henna wears off of me, it's indelible (and reversed) as far as things go with you. So, yeah, sorry about that.

3 Vodka
2 people recommended this item
Description
Three reasons I am mad about 3:
1. Flavor: clean but not without character.
2. Hangover: my pal at Wally's Wine and Spirits claims you can drink as much as you want and not get half the hangover you get with other vodkas. And he'd know (man, I want his job).
3. Sporty-ness: There are really two aspects to the picaresque nature of 3. On one hand, it's basically a sports drink, it has no sugars and is gluten-free (and, oddly enough, vegetarian?!), and i would totally hydrate with a 3 rocks. On the other, how badly do you want to clip the top to a climbing harness and hit the crag? I have a friend who says there's a window after drinking a redbull and two shots of espresso when a human can climb pretty much anything... add a shot of 3 and I think it'd be safe to remove the "pretty much" from that statement.
...Also, they have it at our corner store for $2 LESS than Stoli... Chin up, my smooth Russian pal, you know how the saying goes, "one is silver and the other's gold."

PB-13 Women's Flying Pigeon Bicycle

Description
What's to love... Black frame with brown leather seat, double-sided kickstand, enclosed chain, comes with basket AND bell AND rear rack AND dynamo-powered front light, vintage geometry, fenders and $299 price make for an excellent hipster commuter. What's not to love... friction brakes. I can't go there. Deeply irritating to me. But, for those who can, the Flying Pigeon is aces.
(Note the self control I exhibited by not making a bird pun.)

Veuve Clicquot Traveller (750ML bottle, 2 flutes & tote bag)
First to recommend
Description
How on on earth has one roamed the earth (or even visited family) without a va-va-Veuve traveler on hand to overcome all manner of voyage-related turbulence. Oh, that's right, a duffel of bubbly could be part of a nasty terrorist plot and, therefore, is champers non gratis on planes. Pity.
