ACME Workhorse Reusable Shopping Bag - Style 1500

3 people recommended this item

Description

I absolutely love these bags! They are as advertised - lightweight, small when bagged and extremely durable. I'm trying do my part for the planet by using these acme bags instead plastic bags for groceries and carrying things around. As a bonus my college age brother finds these bags manly enough for him to tote around and use as well. (via Reusable Bags)

Elizabeth Falkner's Demolition Desserts, by Ann Krueger Spivack

First to recommend

Description

For their daughter's 1st birthday my friends baked "Chocolate Chip Cookies Straight Up or with Nuts" and Chocolate Chip Espresso Cookies" to which I absolutely fell in love with! I immediately went out to buy the book so I could make them myself. This book is so much fun to flip through. It looks nothing like your average cookbook. The design is part anime, part punk and tons of fun!

The recipes range from the easy to hard but Elizabeth explains everything quite thoroughly so you don't feel like any recipe is too daunting. Many of the recipes also suggest mixing the ingredients by hand. She feels the end product comes out better. And personally I feel like you put more love into it. I think this book is a must have for anyone who loves a good dessert!

Johnny Cupcakes Kitchen Handbag

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

Before I was only able to wear my love for cupcakes with Johnny Cupcakes shirts, hoodies, belts, necklaces and underwear. As of last week Johnny Cupcakes now has a full grain/top grain leather handbag for me to tote around NYC. Measuring 11.5" x 6" x 6" it is as Johnny says "Not too big not too small". The Kitchen Handbag comes in 2 base colors - black and white. You really can't go wrong with either. Had I followed true New Yorker style law I would have gotten the black but I have so much black that I decided to go against my usual style and get the white base. What a rebel I am!

Sumajin Smartwrap

14 people recommended this item

Description

Saw the recomendations on ThisNext and bought some through Amazon. I'm glad I have them and would recommend them to others, but wish the ends closed a little tighter to better secure stiffer cords.

Warning: Do not purchase these from "IGgFactory Handhelditems" (an Amazon vendor). They only sent me half my order and never responded to any of my emails through Amazon or their own web site even though I provided my cell phone. When I posted about this on Amazon, they started sending me money offers to take down the negative feedback. Too late.
