Today I feel...



Stressed? Indifferent? Bored? Fabulous, perhaps?

I love this vintage-looking mood-o-meter magnet I got from Target a few months ago. Every time I see it I have to laugh, unless of course I'm in one of the darker moods depicted. I have one magnet at home and one at work, so I'm always conveying to people what mood I'm in. And they're fun and super easy to use. Just slide the little "Today I feel..." frame over the photo of the woman that best resembles your mood for the day. I find that mine is often over the "Stressed" woman, especially while I'm at work, although it has also been over "Chatty", "Indifferent", "Bitchy" (that one seems to occur monthly), and, rarely, "Ecstatic" (while we were on our honeymoon). I wish I could offer you a link for purchase, but it no longer seems to be available for sale at Target. How does that make me feel? Hmmm...

Glee gum



I love the packaging of this gum I bought at Trader Joe's the other day. Very Monopoly-retro.

Vintage-style matchbook notepads



I got these cool notepads at Vintage Faire in Barrington on Saturday. They're designed to look like vintage matchbooks, compete with striking strip, and the designs on the covers are very retro and colorful.

Retro bikes




Check out these and these retro cruiser bikes from Schwinn. Man, I would love to have one of these!
