Lucky Numbers….

Ok so I may as well start off this post by admitting it, Yes  I am a fortune-cookie-aholic !!We  have a box of them we keep in the pantry and we crack one (or two!) open each daily to enjoy that yummy fortune cookie sugary goodness and have a laugh at the unlikely (but still hopefull!) fortunes  inside.

There is usually a good variety of fortunes in each box of cookies, I have had a different one each day this week,  so when my other half opened five cookies in five days and got the same fortune each time,  we had to ask ourselves is this a weird coincidence or a sign from the fortune cookie gods to buy a lotto with those lucky numbers on the back!?! I think I’ll stop by the newsagent just in case :P

I’ll leave you all with some fat free fortune cookie fun I dug up from Etsy : )

I heart mail :)

I love mail. Big mail, little mail, flat mail, bulky mail I dont care as long  I get to rip it open and there is something fun inside!! (Not so much a fan of the bills though I must add!) This week I had some extra fun goodies arrive.  A very long awaited Miijo order with the following HOH jewellery:

I am really loving HOH jewellery atm, kudos to Nicole Ritchie for bringing out some really cute pieces and best of all at affordable prices!

I also received this Mimco baby I picked up for a fraction of the retail from Ebay:

and last but not least from the mimco website itself:

 IMO whilst still uber cute the new york squirrel necklace looks suspiciously like a skunk…..

Etsy Treasury..

One of my favourite features on Etsy would have to be the maybe ‘not so well known’ Poster Sketch program. I have spent many a not so productive hour just playing around with different colours and themes :) Well I was having one of my time wasting poster sketch sessions just yesterday when I realised an actual treasury spot was about to open up and voila! Here is my masterpiece lol!
