Spring is right around the corner but I’m still lusting after a few fall finds. On my radar: Betsey Johnson’s “I Fucking Love You” chocolate box hats, MAC x Wonder Woman, and of course, more Jonathan Adler. Supreme hit a home run with their quirky little spring accessories. Add a pair of Miu Miu clogs, some breath freshener, and a creepy clown cuff and voila! February faves!

Forget the typical flowers and jewelry and treat yourself to what you REALLY want this Valentines Day. Here are some suggestions…

LUSH Valentine’s Day Limited Edition Bath Products
Frog Prince Bath Bomb – This new fragrance is an aphrodisiac blend with sweet undertones. Jasmine, neroli and rosewood create a sensual fragrance. It’s also brimming with cocoa butter and almond oil for a luxuriously moisturizing soak.
Ex-Factor Bath Bomb – Bath Bomb voodoo for wronged lovers and those who just dislike the mushiness of Valentine’s Day. As his or her limbs fizzle, the electric blue water and creamy vanilla scent will take you away.
Magic Mushroom Bubble Bar – Mounds of strawberries and cream bubbles in your tub is all the sweetness you need for a heavenly bath experience.

Sprinkles Limited Edition Cupcakes
Raspberry Chocolate Chip Cupcake – NEW chocolate chip-studded Belgian dark chocolate cake topped with luscious raspberry frosting and adorned with a perky pink heart.
Red HOT Velvet Cupcake – A classic red velvet cake paired with spicy cinnamon cream cheese frosting.

Ferrero Rocher Hazelnut Chocolates – Assorted boxes of chocolates make you search for the good ones and let’s be real, half of them are gross and end up left in the box after a bite.
THESE are made by the same makers of NUTELLA. Need I say more?

From the MAC Wonder Woman Collection (In stores Feb 10)
Remind yourself how SUPER you are every time you pull these out of your handbag.

One of my favorite candies of all time is Ting Ting Jahe. A ginger chew made in Indonesia, the candy is a perfect blend of sweet and spice. Ginger’s properties help to calm stomach ailments such as nausea and even motion sickness. Place two candies into a cup of boiling water and stir until completely dissolved. The relief is surprisingly quick and if you’re not a fan of the taste of ginger, the hot water and sugar tones it down a bit. Ting Ting Jahe is available at most asian specialty stores and through Amazon.



The holidays are synonymous with baked goods. Want to whip up a quick batch for some coworkers? Need a cute gift for your friend with a sweet tooth? Check out my latest obsession:
The Sunbeam Cupcake Maker
It makes six cupcakes in just 10 minutes!

Pair it with Betty Crocker’s “Just Cupcakes” book of 100 recipes.

More of a donut person?? They make one for those too…


WANT!!!



I want to get married on Halloween JUST so I can have this cake




I am currently obsessed with the new mini desserts from Starbucks. Apparently the goods are just a test run here in Arizona and parts of the East Coast. So far I’ve only tried the Birthday Cake and Rocky Road Mini Cake Pops, but everything on the minis menu is too damn cute AND cheap to resist (each item is around $1.50). The fun-sized lineup also includes Tiramisu and Coconut Mini Cake Pops, Red Velvet and Chocolate “whoopie pies”, salted caramel crunch, chocolate hazelnut, and lemon squares, and mini cupcakes in peanut butter and orange cream. If I start to look a bit squishy in some areas, you know where it came from! Get them now before they are history! *pics via Starbucksmelody

As of recent Shew and I have been obsessed with our Weeners! (that’s what we call our weener dogs, Ume and Mochi). I may be the ring leader since I’ve already had my pup graduate from puppy school
In celebration it was only fitting I purchase pupcakes from Furbabies! Ume celebrated in true treat style with his lil bro Mochi.

I purchased the Chicken and Carrot pupcakes without frosting for the four Weener Dogs I love. Here’s a video [video pending...facebook is being a bia]of them tearing them up. Specifically Mochi. One weener didn’t care for them at all. the other 3 gladly took part! 3 out of 4 weeners approved the pupcakes!

The quality of the product was awesome. There are various flavors to choose from. Because the actual location of Furbabies is pretty far into the east valley I would recommend having them FedEx’d even if you live in-state. The owner is REALLY sweet and says it will only take a day or two. Next time i’ll take the advice, and YES there will be a next time!

Fort Greene x Common from Lady La on Vimeo.
The show was an all day FREE event filled with several live performances, retail and food vendors. The day ended with this Common performance and a packed Fort Greene park. I <3 this place!
