Happy Father's Day!

Though my mother says that EVERYday is Father's Day.

Kitlers

Have you ever wondered, if only there was a website that documented cats that have the misfortune to look like Hitler? I haven't, but a friend lead me to this site dedicated to "Kitlers."

Again, I have to ask "WHY?"

Website Shout Out

I saw a blurg about The Laundress website in my new favorite magazine, Domino and went to check it out. I enjoyed their tips and feel more interested in laundry than I have in years, or ever really. They believe the dry cleaners is evil and in seperating everything. Their ideas on laundry sorting (not even mixing dark pinks with light pinks) is too strict, I mean I do have a day job. They also sell different detergents for darks, lights, and whites which seems over the top to me. I'm going to try out their fabric freshener and the crease release.
Here are some tips from their website: www.thelaundress.com

Always separate laundry by color. For best results use The Laundress White Detergent for all whites, The Laundress Darks Detergent for darks and denim, and The Laundress Signature Detergent for lights and colors. Items should be laundered separately by color category for best results and color longevity.

Intense cleaning involves three elements: water temperature (hot), detergent amount (more than recommended) and agitation (movement in machine). Fabric (such as cotton) generally has a certain shrinkage capacity so washing your favorite white t-shirt once in hot water will shrink the same amount as it would over multiple washings in warm.

Washing delicates by hand is the best. After hand washing with The Laundress Delicate Wash, delicates should be line dried or laid flat to dry. If machine washing, always protect items by placing them in a mesh bag using a delicate wash cycle. *Swimwear, lacey items, and under wire bras should always be hand washed for best care and longevity.

Why?

Knitting Lingerie-
"McGowan-Michael's 30-plus designs, stunningly photographed by Thayer Allyson Gowdy, range from the truly functional-knitted bras, slips, corsets, camisoles, and stockings-to the purely fun. The brassiere inspires a curvature-enhancing twinset. The baby doll negligee is the basis for a lacy little gown and a matching thong set that's both luxurious and (slightly) notorious. And a ribbed, laced-front sweater is an updated-and much more comfortable!-take on the classic corset. "

What the ?

Summer Shoes

Metallic shoes are in this summer and I'm determined to have a pair; should I go with the dressier heels or the more casual bronze wedges? (Or as the BR website describes them, "Amazingly sweet slide.")

A new reason to go to the eye doctor

Yes, these are BURBERRY eye glasses, which means I really need to go to the eye doctor and get a pair. Apparently improvement in my eyesight wasn't enough of a reaso to make an appointment.

Pirates 3

I've seen Pirates of the Carribean, At World's End twice now and I enjoyed the second screening even more than the first. Certainly not due to the difference in company in the screenings, but I was able to just enjoy the action and word play rather than pay attention to the plot. But be sure to stay through the credits, you'll be rewarded!

Favorite New Magazine

My favorite new magazine, domino is a Martha Stewart type magazie pertaining mostly to the subjects of entertaining and decorating, but with a trendier, more realistic approach to creating a home. The magazine also has stickers come with the issue in order to better tab each page for later reference. For $10 a year, I now have a subscription and can't wait until my next issue.
