misosouper, a shopping blog

Not Martha got here first, but really, who’s complaining about another mention of cupcakes?

Because my daughter’s preschool is one of those composting, can’t-eat-crap environments, I must bake some kind of healthy muffcake to share at her school birthday party.  While I think it’s fun to confuse the poor kids by making some kind of zucchini-raisin-cranberry-carrot concoction, the kids would probably appreciate me mitigating the un-fun factor with this decidedly fun giant cupcake pan.

I consider myself skilled–adept, if you want to put a more assholey spin on it–at finding things on the internet.  As in:  I want a smallish cross-body messenger bag in leather, as simple and unembellished as possible.  What Nancy Drew would wear on safari.  The sleuths at Lucky seem particularly adept at finding good objects from curious sources, such as the perfect fuzzy headband from a furry supply shop, or some such thing.

Furry headbands, I can do, but that smallish brown bag?  Not so much.  I’ve looked through every online shop, popular and obscure, only to find this perfect specimen by simply Googling “brown cross body bag.”

These napkins will keep you looking corporate while chicken grease dribbles from your lips.

This club chair is so deep, and so coated in plastic, that it seems perfect for the Jungle Room.

But poor Elvis isn’t around to take advantage, so it’s up to you.  No pressure.

Depends on how much wine is left in the glass.
