the power shot sd780 is PERFECT digital camera for a food blogger whose life is mostly about dining out (as opposed to cooking at home, styling food, and setting up fancy shots at home, though under those kind of ideal conditions, it takes sensational pictures). Dining out means the camera has to do well under low(er) light and be small and compact enough to carry around.

For 12.1mp AND an HD VIDEO CAM!!! it is the tiniest camera i've seen, which means it can fit into an evening clutch on your next cocktail party events in the pocket of your boy's jeans when you're traipsing through the county fair, or in (god forbid) a fanny pack) when you're at the hollywood bowl (i may or may not have ever work a fanny pack tot he hollywood bowl).

Incidentally, I have owned canon powershot series digital cameras for as long as i've been using digital cameras and when my last one, canon sd1000 finally had a breakdown, i thought maybe it was time to "graduate" to a digital SLR, but after deep, deliberate, careful consideration of about two minutes, I tossed the ides asking "why?" unless you plan to go semi pro with your photography, you can take good enough pictures with a compact, point-nshoot. you just have to learn how to use the meanual settings, which takes all of about 15 minutes, as opposed to learning how to use a digital slr, which takes years.

LOVE. THIS. CAMERA. (and i got it on MAD SALE at amazon for just over $200)

Coppola Sofia Blanc de Blanc

7 people recommended this item

Description

Sofia Mini Blanc de Blancs is not something I would drink on a regular basis; not even on a semi-regular basis. It's not so horrible that I couldn’t finish the entire can (which the bartender actually poured into a glass for me), but I also had no other choice, and as I have said before, "boozers can't be choosers."

While I can appreciate the novelty of its being in a can, I can’t quite understand how the convenience of a portable 4-pack overrides a better tasting bottle in a bar. Still, I suppose it would be fun to do the Capri Sun thing if I were at the beach (ha! but I never go to the beach, so there!)

Here's the stuff for the wine geeks: it's made of 70% Pinot Blanc, 20% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Muscat Cannelli.

** disclaimer ** So that you can decide how seriously you would like to take comments about wine from The Delicious, here are a few things for context: 1) TheDelicious drinks a glass of wine every night – for antioxidants, 2) Chardonnay is termite feed, 3) there is nothing wrong with pink wine, and 4) Syrah, like Sarah, goes with everything. ** end disclaimer ** (via the delicious life)

Only $15, and the Hello Kitty Lip Gloss from Bath & Body Works comes with a sparkly little Hello Kitty charm!

The pink and soft pink colors seem a little too bright, but the gold is awesome! (Because, you know, gold is so subtle)

i hear "juicy couture" and all i can visualize is a sherbert colored terry cloth tracksuit. however, juicy couture does make cute accessories and gifts, and this set of 20 calling cards is absolutely essential for the girl on the go - allowing you to leave a message with someone just before you twirl off to your next appointment.
