#3 ON MY CHRISTMAS LIST
Well, sort of. My readers have been keeping track of the items I'm putting on my Christmas list - in hopes that my husband reads this blog. I've been looking for the perfect necklace - the kind you can wear every day if you want to. When I stumbled across this beautiful bad hair day pendant from Nek Jewelry I had to buy it. The folks at Nek say it's from an Argentinian beauty school and is one-of-a-kind. The pendant is infused with a charm that is supposed to drive the eyes away from unfortunate hair. Let's hope it works! (They suggest wearing a hat if it doesn't.)

AROMATHERAPY GOES TO THE DOGS! Though I don't consider myself an over-the-top doggie owner - no nail polish, faux fur clothing or crystal jewelry in Frankie's (my canine) wardrobe - I recently found a product that makes our lives together much more enjoyable. Aromatherapy for dogs may sound a little 'Californian' but that's where we live. This line of candles from Hands N Paws may be a life saver for doggies with separation anxiety - yes, it's a real condition that plagues Frankie when I leave the house. With a pleasant scent that we humans enjoy - lavendar is my favorite - it also contains a secret ingredient that can be detected solely by our little friends. For those of you who haven't - I dare you to try aromatherapy for your doggie!

COSTA RICA HERE WE COME! Spring is here and a change of scenery is needed soon. Fortunately for me, the Fairy Godmother of airline ticket contests has granted me a Costa Rican dream come true! After some spur of the moment research and brief consultations with anyone willing to listen, I'm whisking up a trip for two; 8 days of vacation in the north and central Pacific regions of this amazing country. After trekking through Europe last summer I learned that traveling in extremely close quarters can either make or break a trip (or a relationship). Not only do I need to plan what I have to pack and what I may need and what I most definitely cannot forget, I also have to prepare for obstacles we may each encounter, like language barriers (neither of us is fluent in Tico-Spanish or Spanish in general). He wants to rent a car - I think we should take public transportation for the lower cost and hassle. He doesn't want to plan everything to a T and neither do I, but I'm afraid we ...

JOIN THE CHOCOLATE CAKE CLUB! Membership in the Club is easy - just sit back, relax and shop! That's right. The Chocolate Cake Club's goal is to simplify the sometimes daunting process of shopping for little ones. I'm always clueless when shopping for nieces, nephews and rest of the kids in my life. And 4-year olds don't always enjoy opening a pretty box and finding a little plastic gift card. The Chocolate Cake Club is the perfect solution. The site is packed with original - and sometimes unique - toys and activities that you won't see anywhere else. And they're organized in convenient categories - by need (traveling), age groups, and type (kids games/puzzles). My favorite? The Playful Chef Kids Cooking Set . It has everything for the budding chef: apron, tools, recipes and more!
