Apparently, I’m on a make-your-own-bags kick. Whipup has a simple, easy tutorial to make a cute bag out of last year’s ugly sweater.

People around here are spitting out babies like there’s no tomorrow. As a result I’ve done a lot of baby shopping lately.

If you are too, check out Duc Duc, a nifty cool baby company. I’ll tell you this now, it’s not cheap, but it looks like it’s worth the money.

Hey, everyone.

I started this web site with no knowledge of Wordpress or running a site. I’m going to try to keep it ad-free for a little bit, until the word gets out.

So while Allthatanda is still in “beta edition,” I’d appreciate all the comments you can give me and all the props and word of mouth that I can get.

If you think the categories are weird or I spelled something wrong or a picture isn’t showing up, let me know. Any input you can give me (seeing as we’re all friends and friends of friends here) would be appreciated.

I think the world rejoiced when web-based travel sites came out. Orbitz, Travelocity and such changed our lives. I can’t even remember what it was like before them.

It’s a pain though, to find the best deal. Well, Kayak makes it easy. It searches multiple web sites for you. I’ve used it several times and saved who-knows-how-much cash.

Check out this review, which calls it the best travel search engine out there.

So, I’ve got about umpteen weddings to go to this summer. It’s the beginning of that part of my life, the wedding part of my life. Not my wedding, but others. My roommates best friend’s cousins wedding. My coworkers sister’s wedding. That kind of thing. It figure, one dress. One dress I wear over and over, but with new jewelry or shawls.

I like this one, from the style watching people at Ravinstyle.

I like big bags, especially, nifty bags that don’t cost a lot of money. Like this one from Treasure Bath.

This Sheila D reversible bag is also cute, and useful for everything from work to play.

Readymade is one of many magazines I’m in love with (along with Blueprint, Vanity Fair and Shop, ETC) It’s fantastic and witty and now, for Etsy members only $15.99

I’m an aspiring crafter. That means I’m not so good at it, but I try. That’s what counts, right? These are on my to-craft list.

Laptop bag that matches this $80-100 felt bag.

A scrabble message board with my some-of-the-letters-are-missing-but-it’s-more-fun Scrabble game.

Cat toys that profess my love for sushi.

Easy wall art with all those jewel cases I have laying around

Organize my closet finally. (OK, that’s not a craft, but it sure is one heck of a task)

Paint chip wall art using the beginning steps of this paint chip wallet.

Man, I got a lot of work to do. I also have two canvases that remain unpainted because i have no inspiration and am a horrid artist.
