Coveting: Nothing

I'll be taking a hiatus from this blog
1) to focus on training for the Avon walk this summer
2) because I haven't seen anything I'm coveting lately
3) no one reads this

If you stumbled here by accident and are bored, feel free to read my other blog about books to entertain yourself: threebooksatatime.blogspot.com

Currently coveting: A cure for breast cancer

A disclaimer: I promise to do this no more than once per year.

Dear Blog Readers,
I would like to take this opportunity to blog about something a little bit more personal: breast cancer. Did you know that nearly 1 in 8 women are affected? I didn't. But that means 39 of my female friends will have to battle the disease in their lives. Or maybe it will be me.

I've decided to take a stand against cancer and do my part to be part of the cure. On July 9th and 10th I'll be participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer, walking almost 40 miles with thousands of other women to raise money for medical research, education and early detection programs, clinical care, and support services. 

If you are able, please consider making a tax deductible donation to help me reach my fundraising goal of $1,800. You can Donate here or visit the page to view my progress and see fun facts as I begin training.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Passover carb cravings

Passover is one of my least favorite Jewish holidays. No carbs for 8 days! What's a girl to do?! I can't stop thinking about The Toaster Oven and their delicious bread-y goodness.

Kors. Michael Kors.

Normally I think anything from Michael Kors is a no, but this bag from his new Spring collection gets a big yes from me!

mmm...Juicy

I am not normally a fan of Juicy Couture. However, this surprisingly mature wristlet has me smitten.

Retro cuteness

I only recently discovered modcloth but I'm obsessed with their ultra feminine silhouettes and adorable florals (among other things). This is one of my favorites.

Lunch craving

Post salad for lunch I am super craving a taco.

A petite lap giraffe

Words cannot even begin to describe how sad I was when I learned these mini giraffes don't actually exist.

The Starting Point For My Future Apartment

Back to basics

Left my flip flops by the pool in Mexico and they disappeared (along with a cover-up, book, and spray sunscreen). Of all of those things, I'm most upset about my Reefs. Currently coveting a new pair...

Chopping with a butterknife

A chef came over my house recently and did what I'm sure every chef in America does when faced with a new kitchen: he inspected my knives. If it was a test I failed miserably.

If I ever get around to replacing my old set, I love these from Wusthof.

A tisket, a tasket...

I have no idea what a tisket is, or what a tasket is for that matter, but I do know that this picnic basket is really cute!

Hello Spring Fashion!

A trip to the mall yesterday has made me giddy with excitement. Spring is here! In stores at least... Gone are the turtlenecks, rain boots, and scarves. Hello bright colors, polka dots, and florals! This coat in the Kate Spade window left me breathless:

Also spotted everywhere, nude patent pumps. I'm coveting these no longer. Let's welcome the newest addition to my shoe collection:

All aboard the Louboutin train...

Personally, I think the idea of spending $595 on a pair of shoes is outrageous. However, if someone forced me to do it, I would pick this sky high, patent nude, pointy-toe pair. DROOL.

Oooo and this too!

I'm permanently on the hunt for a necklace with meaning. This isn't exactly the same as the Tiffany heart I lost but I'm loving it! (The mannequin is kinda creeping me out though...)
