We are so jazzed to present the new Me in Mind Booties! Available in both grey and pink, these booties are perfect for our New Year's Eve feature, since baby is rockin' and rollin' into 2009!"

Tag - You're It!

So, I've Been Tagged by Jeanne Sager at Inside Out! For those of you who don't know what this is (I sure didn't!) this is a meme, which is kind of like a question-answer game like you played in high school but for all of us adults (kids can't be the only ones havin' fun!)! If I've tagged you (tag- you're it!), here are the rules:
1. Link to the person who tagged you.

2. Post the rules on your blog.

3. Write six random things about yourself.

4. Tag sixish people at the end of your post.

5. Let each person know he or she has been tagged.

6. Let the tagger know when your entry is up.


Six Random Things About Me:

1
. I have a very big crush on Mario Batali! My husband knows he'd have trouble in Kitchen Stadium if I ever met my Iron Chef!

2. I get teased at work because of my Starbucks "habit!" I love my tall, Super Hot (and I mean Super Hot!) mocha with whip if I am in the mood . . and I don't ever finish them because I get momnesia when I focus on work and then everyone here has a good laugh!
3. My Musical Guilty Pleasure is Al B Sure - Show the love, ladies!
4
. In the summer time, my favorite thing to do is take my boys to Taylor Street for Italian Ice and lupini beans!

5.
I love mixing high (ish) and low fashion, and there is nothing brightens my day like finding a new, funky cheapo top! This sensibility would also apply to humor: Clever humor, very funny - fart sounds, even funnier! I might pass out laughing if it was a clever person farting!
6. If I could clone myself, the Other Me would live in Jamaica (I'm a Super Virgo, so I'd be down there in the sun, organizing something except my car, which is beyond trashed!)

Bonus answer: Drinking even a tiny tini brings out my inner grandma, to the joy of everyone around me who needs a little advice! Well, that was fun!

Now it's time for you: Tag, You're It!

Kids Rubber Duck Snow Joggers Have Arrived!


You may have seen these gracing the (Project) Runway on many fabulous folks feet (Check out Heidi Klum and daughter Leni left), and now the Kids' SnowJogger boots from Rubber Duck are here to cover your child's tootsies in practical style!

The SnowJogger is available in pink, red, blue and rainbow in sizes 8-1 for a snowy style that'll bring an extra smile to every snow man you meet!
Ottosen parlayed his business background into a hip footwear company, Rubber Duck Brand, that has taken the world by storm with their-ready-to-wear winter gear. His inspiration came to him one day as he walked his dog, Nuki, through the snow. In one big Ah-ha moment, the SnowJogger was born, combining the comfort of a running shoe sole with the with the warmth of a padded upper. Style mavens with cold feet everywhere rejoiced at the sight of these brightly colored snowboots, which are perfectly suited to the young and young at heart!
Speaking of hearts, Ottosen has followed through with his mission to not only have a rockin' company, but one that makes a positive difference in the world as well. With the introduction of his new (SMILE) Project, he brought new meaning to the song, "Rubber Duckie, you're the one!" Besides making bathtime a lotta fun, 100% of the profits from his new colorful ducks, available at rubberduckbrand.com, are donated to people who dedicate their lives to making a difference to others. That warms the heart, and the SnowJogger warms the toes! Auf Wiedersehen!
