Two things to plug!

Okay...so those of you who know me know that when I really love something I talk lots about it....well I've recently discovered two great things and want to share!!!

The first is the "celebrations" collection from Ann Taylor. Its a whole line of dresses, suits, separates and accessories in the same colors that are all coordinatated to match. You can actually pick from their web site to see head to toe looks and customize a dress. I had read about this in a magazine a few months back but had yet to see one of the few stores that have it yet...so I went online. I liked it so much I actually ordered (way ahead of time I might add) my outfit for a friends wedding this summer. It arrived today and I LOVE how all of it looks together! I'll be the prettiest girl at the wedding...after the bride of course! Anyway, check it out at www.anntaylor.com

The other amazing thing I've found is the Mr. Clean magic eraser. Now this has been out a while..but living in an apartment I never had any interest. But with all the delivery people, and the builder, in and out of my new house some of my walls were getting VERY scuffed up. So I picked up a magic eraser at super walmart this weekend...and let me just say...its a MIRACLE worker. I thought for sure I'd have to repaint all those walls to cover up the marks (which lets face it...I was probably going to do anyway to get rid of the cheap ass bulders paint)...but now I can wait longer to do it! ALL my marks are gone!!!! The box says it works on cleaning up all kinds of stuff....and my only complaint was it didn't last as long as I'd thought it would...of course...I did clean a LOT of wall space with it...so maybe it did.

Anyway...that's all for now!

HSBC Sucks

Okay..Monday I call HSBC to find out how to do the wire transfer. I'm told there's an automated system and to allow 24-48 hours for the wire to go through. This morning, I call HSBC to do the wire transfer, told to use the automated system, I need the telephone access code. If I can't find that, my only option is to go directly to a branch. (and I have NO idea what this telephone access code is). Get home, FIND the access code. Call in, actually FIND the automated system, it tells me wire transfers are not permitted with internet banking accounts. Transfers me to the third dude. He apologizes for all the misinformation, says my ONLY option is to log onto my account and use "bankmail" ask them to overnight me a check which I'd have by Friday morning assuming they receive my mail and process it by tomorrow morning at 11am. I ask him how I know my bankmail will be received right away so that I can actually GET the check by Friday AM, and not get a "we'll...

Striped Socks with an Afterthought Heel

Though not on my original list for this year's knitting goals, I taught myself something new! You see, one of my friends has been obsessed with knitting striped socks. And the more pictures and things I see the more intrigued I get. I'm waiting on a couple of gorgeous orders from Twisted Limone . But I was getting impatient. I was on the Knit Picks site looking for new cables to replace a few coming apart in my interchangeable set and while browsing came across the Felici . At that super affordable price I ordered enough for 4 pairs of socks. :) I cast on for my first pair about, um, 10 minutes after the mailman delivering my package on Saturday June 25. I finished Saturday July 2. That MAY be a new record for me. Though the real record is I finished 1 sock in just over 24 hours! Anyway, here are the finished product. I did lots of reading online to get some inspiration on how to actually go about doing this. Yarn Harlot has a blog post on this, but I wasn't sure I ...
