A Few Of Our Favorite Sweets.

Chocolate tortilla chips, from "Food Should Taste Good".
























Tiramisu, from "Whole Foods Market". Recipe, here.



















Red velvet cupcake, from "Trophy Cupcakes", Seattle.



















The cannoli. (Photo from "Serious NY Eats").

















I have to admit, this post is making me drool. First off, if you haven't had the chocolate tortilla chips (from "Food Should Taste Good"), you are missing an amazing, salty-sweet experience. And the tiramisu from "Whole Foods Market" is ridiculous. We also love the scrumptious, velvety smooth red velvet cupcake from Seattle's very own, "Trophy Cupcakes". And lastly, can you really go wrong with a cannoli? Mascarpone, chocolate chips, crispy shell...oh lord, there's the drool again...

A Few Of Our Favorite Creatures.

Felt chipmunk, from Royal Mint.

















"Mikey The Penguin" card, from Laura Kedro.




































Dragons in the forest (giclee print), from Andy Kehoe.























Gray mouse (fabric doll) with dotted blue socks, from Timor.





















We love creatures of all shapes and sizes. We love cute, felted creatures. We love dragons in a forest. We love mice with blue, polka-dotted socks. But most of all, we absolutely love when little penguins get punched in the stomach. Admit it, you do too!

A Few Of Our Favorite Trends.

Silhouettes:

Custom silhouette pendant, from Lucky Me Beads.
























Chevron:

Zigzag chevron wood block, from Red Tile Studio.



















Soft pastels:

"Winter Wolf" print, from Alice Potter.
























Vintage Brass:

Vintage brass cat, from The Vintage Apartment.



















If you're a trend watcher, you've likely spotted some or all of these in varying ways. We simply enjoy the fact that each of these exciting trends is a throwback to the past. Kind of like when your mom's scarves became cool to wear again. Wait, are you telling me that was never cool?

A Few Of Our Favorite Patterns.

"You Are Good" poster, from Chief and Crown.
























"Cooter Brown, The Wise" print, from Veal Kutlets.
























Triangle lattice necklace, from Boo And Boo Factory.



















Rainbow hippie vest, from Love And Knit.
























Bohemian chic is pretty hip right now. In fact, this is our favorite new pattern trend of the season. Essentially, it's Native American meets Manhattan fashionista. And even if you're a fashion-clueless dude (like myself), you can still appreciate the geometric, visual complexity that "boho chic" brings to the table.
