I've been eyeing this for quite some time for my niece, she loves goldfish :) I just noticed maya papaya is also from NH and weirdly enough we share the same birthday.

Such a cute little goldfish. If you feel up to the challenge, but don't feel like running out to buy supplies, kits are available. But, if you're like me, Amy has some she's already knitted herself that you can buy.

Panda Your Kitchen

There's a panda toaster out there somewhere, when I find it I will post it here.

Safenow.org is a Parody Web Site. They have about 40 "safety tips" in the event of a terrorist attack that are super funny.
They explain their site best:
"The US government has a website, http://www.ready.gov. It's another attempt at scare mongering in the style of the old "duck and cover" advice after WWII.
The fun thing is that these pictures are so ambiguous they could mean anything! Here are a few interpretations below. Enjoy! "

Bibs! For More Than Just Keeping Clothes Clean

They also make a great fashion accessory :)

Just adorable! I have this marked as one of my favorites, just in case I need a great shower gift.

How sweet! Actually the tag line for jam tart baby's shop is "Sweet things for the modern baby". There's a great elephant pillow as well.

Chocolate lollipop also has some great monster bibs. I had a hard time choosing between the kitty and the monsters, but I'm sure by the name of my blog and etsy shop, that you already know I'm partial to black cats :)

We're going to start off with the most important bunny, the charity bunny, for the "Make Mine Chocolate!" campaign. The bunnies are very cute, I have a brown one with a tan heart. The donations go to The House Rabbit Society, for more info visit:

I just adore himalayan bunnies, we used to have one. Besides this one, Linda has many other great bunny prints to choose from.

How can you not resist these? Unfortunately they only fit Preemie to 12 months old, babies get all the best stuff :)

Sushi Fun for Your Little One

PerpetualKid.com

Awesome! I'll write more when they come in and are put in use.

I know it will be hard but this bib is a great solution to keeping the soy sauce stains to a minimum while your little one is learning how to eat with chopsticks.

amazon.com

A great reference guide for your little one so they might know what they're eating :)

www.moderntots.com

I found this while looking for kids training chopsticks. The perfect pretend dinner.

Chainmaille (not the kind you forward)

I think when most people think of chainmaille, they think of renaissance faires that are mainly attended by the Dungeons & Dragons/gaming crowd (they're not by the way, out of the 10 of us that go to King Richards Faire, only 1 of us is a gamer). Today's post is to show that chainmaille is not all about medieval armor but that it can be incredibly beautiful.

This ipod case really is felted with style. What a beautiful way to store your music, and i love the clip on top.

Perpetual Kid

Today I'm going to highlight one of my favorite sites (besides etsy, of course). If you're looking for something a bit on the unusual side with a twist of humor, then perpetualkid.com is where you need to shop.

I just love this doormat.

Do you remember the Snoopy Sno-cone Machine? I do! I used to have one...I think I just completely dated myself.

I have the orange dog oven mitt, it works great! It's made out of silicone and can handle heat up to 446 degrees.

Super Bowls

Just a warning, it's very late, I'm very tired & terribly uncreative. My writing skills are not great to begin with but they're much worse tonight. So I asked Bryan to help me with tonight's title besides Super Bowl (I added the s), his other suggestions were Gone Bowling & Got Bowls.

Kristen says it best " This piece is simple, understated, and elegant. The graphic imagery adds a touch of contemporary charm to any setting." I completely agree!

What a fabulous looking bowl! It brings back some great memories of my days at the beach, of course it brings back some painful memories too, especially if I include the ones where I stepped on an unfortunate sea urchin.

I sort of have a thing for bowls. I had to buy a hutch just for my bowl collection, plus they've taken over my bakers rack & the top of my kitchen cabinets, you get the idea. I love these bowls, they look great when they are all together, I would probably use them as a centerpiece on my table except when I needed to use them of course.

What Stinks?

I just love this skunk! It's just so adorable. I love woolcomesalive's black bear as well.

About a month before Valentine's Day, I mentioned to my husband that I would really like to have this print, I didn't get it. So Bryan, if you read this (and you should be) because I've given you plenty ideas to help you with your "I never know what to get you" problem :) I would like the raccoon & skunk, then the badger, squirrel, crow, & fox. (In that order)

Say Cheesy Pickles!

I know, cheesy pickles! Weird. Right? Makes my niece laugh like crazy, I'm able to great some photos of her that way.

onto my picks for today.

This is a great camera pendant, nice and simple. Also keep an eye out for Tim's Handbook to Handmade which features 33 etsy artists. Volume 4 should be out soon and he's taking pre-registrations for Volume 5.
