Blood Bath and Beyond

That's what we call it at my house - and that's who sent us a circular last night when we were way too tired and giddy to peruse it. (Do people still say giddy? Or even type it?)
Anyhow - I know you'd like to see my favorite items, wouldn't you?

Fine.

You have the added benefit of seeing my ten-o'clock-at-night-wine-labored-scrawl. (I know, I seem to be somewhat incoherent now as well!)



Can I just say? That duvet is heinous.

There's two things I have to say about this next one:



1. Obviously, the previous incarnation of SPACE BAGS, with only ONE zipper? Proved to be a problem. I am overjoyed that they've corrected the situation.

2. How happy are we that the TURBO VALVE sucks out air 35% faster? We're happy. Middle and me are thrilled! Because, if there's one thing WE don't want to spend more time doing, it's vacuuming out our SPACE BAGS. 35% is exactly how much FASTER we need them to BE.




Who could have imagined a cutting board made of flax seeds? There's so much I could say but I will restrain myself and simply point out that it is also available in green.



Sure, the rack is great! GREAT! But, the real tip here is the bottle storage. Upside down! For 35% faster shampoo delivery! Stop wasting time squeezing bottles which have been stored upright. YOU FOOL. (Clearly, I do not know how to spell that word.)



Don't those rocks look SO REAL? You would never even KNOW they ARE rocks, would you?
I mean, aside from the giant solar panels and the hugeass lights? Nah. Perfectly natural looking. (As an aside: is there anything wrong with having a light fixture in your garden that actually LOOKS like a light fixture? I didn't think so.)

Oh, and, off to the side of that page was the Yankee Candle scent of the month. You know how I feel about Yankee Candles, right? Sadly, this month's scent, Pineapple Cilantro, leaves me feeling just a little WTF.



Yep. Bugs, NO. More. Bugs. Anywhere. Got it? (Also, who's spilling stuff all the time? This catalogue had a dozen things for dealing with spills...what's up with that?)



I may have to call bullshit on this product. I think anyone who has fashioned a "hooking device" from one of those dry-cleaner hangers and gone at a sink clog will tell you that you have to remove the stopper and that that tiny wire is not going to do the job. Glad it has a storage hook though.



I'd have to see this IRL. It *could* be okay. Not sure, but I do love the whole organizer thing. Let's ignore the fact that we can wear it on our belt, shall we?



Don't most of us have a tacit agreement that we aren't going to discuss or even consider the filthiness of airline seats? Aren't we all, in fact, flying on the Great Airships Of Denial?
Yes. Yes we are.
Enough said.




Go ahead.
Cover it all.
Cover everything with shiny, pink, satiny, loveliness and...I'm going to stop now.
I feel a little lightheaded.
