The Canon Digital Rebel xsi that is (aka the new love of my life). Yes, after years of lusting after a dslr of my very own, I finally bit the bullet and spent the big bucks to get a REAL camera that arrived yesterday! (BTW, I decided to buy it from an online store called […]

Sorry I haven’t posted much lately. Truth is, without central A/C I’ve been literally a prisoner of our bedroom, the only room that currently has a window unit in it. Generally our house stays very cool thanks to the ginormous oak tree that hangs over our roof. But with three straight days of 100+ degree […]

Ok, technically its called Economic Stimulus Payment and for the record I’m totally against the whole principle of these but that doesn’t mean I can’t think of eight bazillion ways to spend it! Here are a few we’re considering: Visio flat screen TV, $749 from Costco.com If you saw the configuration of our bed and […]

So those of you that have been reading for a while know that I have a hard time making decisions. And that may just be the understatement of the century! But I must say, I’m quite proud of myself because I just ordered cushions for our outdoor seating set. Yes, already!! I suppose it has […]

Most of you know enough about us by now to know we are not patient people, Jeff even more so than I. So much so that he frequently complains that this whole pregnancy thing is taking so damn long, can we please just have our baby already? He’s convinced that we have “forever” to get […]

I’ve always had this weird curse. I would live in a place for years bemoaning the fact that there was the lack of a certain store in that location and then move. Without fail, a few weeks later, said stores would pop up as if by magic in my former hometown. Take the east village […]

No, not THAT one, that one isn’t due until August–I’m talking about our brand spanking new school-bus-yellow Dyson All Floors DC07! Some of you may remember this post in October when I solicited your advice for a good vacuum cleaner. Like most things related to cleaning in my life (and making decisions) I procrastinated for quite a […]

Dad manning the C&D booth. This past Saturday, Charmed & Dangerous had a booth at the Bust Holiday Craftacular in NYC. I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect because of previous circumstances. Previous circumstances being that the last show we did (Shecky’s Girl’s night Out) we were next to a sex toys booth. Which is […]

Mist on Thanksgiving Morning. I woke up early thanksgiving morning to spooky weather more suited to Halloween than Thanksgiving.. can you believe that fog? Thanksgiving day my good friend Amy arrived by train from NYC. She hadn’t seen our house yet, nor had my aunt and uncle on my dad’s side so we had a […]

First of all, a huge thank you for all the vacuum suggestions, I’m still doing some research but am very grateful for the starting points! So Monday was my birthday and I was NOT happy about it. In fact, I spent a good portion of Sunday sobbing and rejecting Jeff’s attempts to arrange a dinner/party […]
