Hearts of the Month: February 2012

PERSON - Kevin Smith
Smodcasts, (most of) his movies, live "Evening With" shows, playing street hockey... I could watch him do pretty much anything (and have done all of the above). I loved that at the beginning of February he broadcast his show "Kevin Smith: Live from Behind" from Toronto live to Cineplex theatres all over the country. He is just all kinds of fantastic and I am super excited to be seeing him live for the 3 (or is it 4th?) time this summer!


COMPANY - ThinkGeek
They have the most incredible customer service team I have ever come across. I had some shipping issues early in the month and they cleared it up quickly and beyond generously. I have never had a bad experience with them.


QUOTE - Won-Ton Jim
My sister was attempting to sing "The Saga Begins" by Weird Al and when it came time for her to say "Qui-Gon Jinn" she said "Won-Ton Jim". I am still laughing about it and this was weeks ago.


THING - Costume Parties
I have 2 costume parties a year, one about every six months. In the winter, for the Oscars and in the summer for my birthday. Call me a loser if you like but I just can't help but love a good theme party!

Weekend Wishlist: Way to my Heart

Anyone looking to woo me this Valentine's Day needn't look any further than this treasury.

(I'm trying out a new widget for Weekend Wishlist, so please bear with me if it decides not to show up properly...)

tHAULsday

It's Thursday.
I have a haul to share.
Therefore it's tHAULsday.

It's no secret that I LOVE LUSH COSMETICS. It's also no secret that I LOVE HALLOWEEN AND CHRISTMAS. So when the Lush holiday products come out my credit card begins to silently weep. October 5th was the Lush Chat Party, where they launched the holiday items and a few limited edition items as well. Below you can see my glorious haul that arrived in the mail yesterday.

MAJESTIC! For those interested, I'll list below what all the items are. Click the photo to go to its purchase page.

Weekend Wishlist: Wishful Thinking

Is this is finally spring? I don't want to jinx it!
With the weather we've been having these past few weeks it's felt like the winter that never ends.
I'm hoping that a little positive thinking will mean the sun and warmer weather is here to stay.
How can you not feel a little springy when looking at these items?
