Jerrica's Profile

I window shop Flash Sale sites. Almost the same way I browse Pinterest. Once I saw an item on One Kings Lane that I recognized from my Amazon wish list for waaay more- I've been suspicious of them since. Joss and Main I enjoy browsing, especially the Curator's Collections. But if I find something I like I google it and 8 times out of 10 it's cheaper elsewhere (or better yet reviewed so I can avoid a regret). Still if you can't find a better price and you don't mind the risk and it's exactly what you're looking for- they are well worth shopping.

I was looking for an upholstered platform bed myself a few years ago but my search was more specific. We have a (king) Tempur-Pedic and the warranty is void if you don't use a "firm, solid-surface, non-spring foundation or adjustable bed base that is structurally capable of supporting the weight". We needed a low/platform bed that could also hold/fit their low profile foundation. Anyway, after over a year of searching we got a great deal on a Coaster bed I stumbled upon online and priced checked to death before snagging it for $470 at Mercantilla (I'd never heard of them until then and I haven't bought anything there since). It's still going strong. Amazon also carried it, search for: Contemporary Eastern Standard King Size Platform Bed.

I like the bedside table in in the fouth picture. Anyone know where it's from?

I love those shoes, thanks for the info sxyskeksis.

I've been scoping out Pinterest for a little while now and I can't wait to join in on the fun! I've been put on a waiting list though -- anyone out there care to share an invite?

I like to eat my ice cream out of my favorite ice-cream bowl or right out of a pint size container. I can understand wanting to give away your gifts away in something that looks the same way as you enjoy it.

I found these ice-cream tubs (1 pint size) on Amazon and I think I'll get them because the times where I have given ice-cream to friends in ugly tupperware they usually give me back my tupperware (it's the polite thing to do) and they request more. So really, they never throw it away, they give it back to you when they want more, and hopefully they reuse it (maybe it can hold soup?). But they are $12 each. I'm sure a nice waterproof label can be added to the tops, side or even discreetly on the bottom.

I made this last week. I've always had the store-bought stuff and it always left a lot to be desired. This was fantastic! Thank you for sharing the recipe.

I had a Misto but it got clogged all the time. I kept mine inside the cabinet above the stove. I hated the pumping action too. I see them all the time at TJMaxx. I'm looking for a new one, maybe I'll try one of the others on that list. I like the look of that last one!

I don't have a Dyson hand vacuum, but I do have the Dyson (DC18) Slim. Our best household purchase made in 2008!
I use it fine to clean pretty much everything the handheld line can do I think, unless I'm missing something?

I'm wondering how well it will do when I try to vacuum my car this week.

I've had positive results with Charlie's Soap (detergent)
