I am SO excited for Easter. Or maybe just warmer weather. Or some tulips.  But anyhow just very excited.  Every Easter until I was around 15, part of my egg hunt resulted in me finding a little fluff. Not dust or decadence, but a little furry bunny.  Sometimes my mom & gram would hide him/her in a bathroom or in a basket & I'd give them all sorts of names. Only to find I am allergic to rabbits. But I'm still excited to start pulling treats and gifts for Easter baskets & decor!!

TOMS

One Day Without Shoes is Today! 

TOM'S shoes began in 2006 with SMU graduate Blake Mycoskie when he first traveled to Argentina.  His passion began when he realized the children had no shoes- hence he created TOMS shoes.  For every pair of shoes your purchase- a new pair of shoes is given to a child in need. 

Find out more about One Day Without Shoes or get your TOMS today here for as little at $40.00

Vino100

If you need a quick case of wine or just a grab n go bottle, Vino 100 has mastered the scene for classic and convenient wine purchasing.  The franchise has one Columbus location on High Street in the Short North that I absolutely love visiting.  I am always sent here for a case of wine for new show openings.  The customer friendly feel guides you through different options of what you might want- depending on the event.   Tell them the budget or flavors you like and before you know it you have the perfect case of wine!

My favorite part about visiting different specialty stores is the check out.  There are always fun products on display from cute packaged chocolates by Brix to portably packaged wine by Bandit.  Buy a case of wine and receive a 10% discount!

Vine 100 is right next to one Collier West across the street from Haiku. Pop on in and see their selection or head upstairs to the bar to try a wine or beer flight!! They have a pretty decent cheese selection for bites too!  

Happy Sunday

I want a Dion Johnson painting.  One of his works featuring big lines guided by a different array of colors would be great looking on one of my walls.  The optimistic colors of crayon yellow & periwinkle purple create an atmosphere of happy =) Dion is from Bellaire, Ohio but his studio is in LA where I'm assuming it's always sunny.  Is there such a thing as rent-a-painting?
