i heart: sneak in disposable flasks!

{is it wrong that i love this?!}

my roommate brought home restoration hardware's holiday catalogue a few weeks back. of course out of all their fun items, i thought the disposable flask was the best! love, love, love it. it would have been the perfect gift for pretty much all my friends + family (we live in napa...so i can say that without sounding like an alcoholic). sadly, they were + still are sold out. however, i just did a little research + found this site that sells something similar.

ps. i also LOVE this bike...and just noticed it is on sale from $695 to $344!

last minute gift ideas {hint. hint.}

i am officially changing my middle name to - last minute. just in case you are too, here is a little (emphasis on little. otherwise it would be a novel) list of my favorite things (gifts i would be very happy to receive myself).

{riedel "o" wine glasses. i use them everyday. perfect gift for under $25}

{fresh sugar lip treatment with spf 15 • great stocking stuffer}

{fleurissimo. my favorite scent from creed}

i believe fleurissimo is also available at diva perfumes in st. helena.

{lush • dream cream. HEAVEN!}

actually everything from lush is heaven.

{addicted to these moleskine cashier notebooks}

{yumminess from cowgirl creamery}

i am putting together a little list of my favorite things/gift ideas for the holidays + came across this yummy display of cheeses on the cowgirl creamery website.

i don't know about you, but i have a thing for cowgirl creamery cheeses. if given the chance i would eat them every day. especially the mt. tam + red hawk.

this "party in a box" would be the perfect (holiday, housewarming, wedding...) gift for a foodie. or for a party (which is probably how it got the nickname). or for yourself, for no reason.

click on the links for more information or to see their other cheeses.

cheers!
