Let me just say that I had NO idea what the heck Silly Bandz even were this time last week. In fact, I only first heard of and saw them when I was in St. Louis last week for Build-a-Bear Workshop Connect. When a few of the other bloggers there…

Little Green Boxes.
On a recent trip to Target, I discovered these little cuties on an endcap and for only $3 each! They are the perfect tool I am using to revamp my little office nook in my kitchen area. I actually am embarrassed to admit that I stood there at the endcap…
