It is good to have a credit card, you know, to build credit and whatnot. But which one shall you chose? Here’s a suggestion from Jacynth…

Wondering what credit card to sign up for? I got myself, a Nordstrom Visa about a year ago and have definitely reaped the rewards. You earn points as you spend and double when you spend at Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack. They, in turn, send you Nordstrom “bucks” to spend at their stores and it’s splendiferous! – Jacynth

I am back on St. John from a VERY brisk Wyoming winter. Those 12 days were definitely enough for me. But OH! What a time it was. I got some of my favorite things ever, and not so surprisingly, things that I’ve talked about on this website (my Jonathon Adler teapot! AbFab DVD set! Hat! Lemon Squeezer!). Also a lot of very cool things that were new to me that I can’t wait to show you all.

Because of the upcoming New Year holiday, I am going to be short on posts yet again this week. So sorry to all of you who check in regularly.

Next week…back in the action completely! Enjoy your holiday. May the year 2010 be most spectacular for you and yours.

Happy and Jolly

I’m taking the day off to play with the kiddies and go through the very long but necessary process of baking cinnamon rolls. Hope you are reveling in holiday happiness!

Much love!

Pop Icon meet Architecture

Love her or not, Lady Gaga is certainly carving herself out a unique niche in the music world.

Her music is catchy, and her voice melodic (if you dare to argue, please check on YouTube for a number of solo singing performances that she records while plucking away with expertise at the piano). But her major schtick is most absolutely her outlandish outfits. Sheesh, the lady doesn’t even go to the grocery store without being painstakingly, and oddly, styled.

This is a fascinating article on Lady Gaga and her architectural moments. You must check it out. And seriously, the frog outfit toward the bottom??

Back from an amazingly magical weekend in Chicago. ‘Magical’ may seem like an interesting descriptive word, but it was so truly fantastic…a love affair with friends old and new.

We stayed with one of my best gals, Angie, and her fiance Michael. If you want proof of the happiness, here is a lovely shot of Angie and me being super-psyched-super-fans on our girls night out.

At any rate, I came across oodles of amazingness (and apparently even more superlatives) to bring to Gleegarden. Much gratitude for this going to the Renegade Craft Fair. More on that later.

For now, a few of the many highlights:

-Arrival, delicious beers and food, Michael circumcises a 46 year old man on his urology rotation (his first surgery – so proud)

-Touristy things, hang with St. John-now-Chicago friends for deep dish, Angie and Moriah tear up the town

-Renegade Craft Fair, meet new friends, rage

-German fest beer drinking and weiner eating, followed by amazing lakeside performance.

-Leave. Sad.

Pardon the absence while I get an island reprieve

Another double-dose-post day for you all. Tomorrow, I am heading out to Chicago for a long weekend with close friends. German festival, sight-seeing, birthday parties, some sort of circus performance and apparently the most amazing craft fair ever are on the agenda.

I hope to pick up a thing or two to pass on to you all…some sort of awesome new must-have goods. In the meantime, I thought I would skip picking a fun product and just show you an evening view shot from the villa we hung out at for my birthday this past weekend (looking over to adjacent St. Thomas). Good thing about the slow season is empty villas. That means pool parties!

I’ll be back in the ‘office’ on Tuesday, so until then…a Glee filled several days to you!
