What to get the Squirrel who has everything?

I had some polyvore fun finding cute squirrel stuff at every price point. How perfect would that wall decal be for a lil legacy's room? Plus it's only $10 at Sears of all places?!?!

Have fun perusing.

P.S. Rumor has it West Elm has a sequined squirrel in stores, but I couldn't find it online =(

Happy Friday Blogger Squirrels Pet Squirrel Anyone?

A sister shared this link on twitter yesterday and it was too sweet not to share.
The story as listed on the LIFE site is:
This Year's Model
In the early 1940s, a woman in Washington, DC, adopted a squirrel after she found the critter orphaned in a tree. The squirrel, dubbed Tommy Tucker by the family -- of which he soon became a part -- accompanied the lady of the house on shopping trips, visits to the local children's hospital, and the like. She also, it turned out, enjoyed dressing him up in specially made outfits. And so it begins ...

Who wants a pet squirrel?!?

It's Thursday. We deserve a Cookie

I sister posted this on facebook and I had to share it with my squirrely friends.


{Photo Credit Chic Cookie Kits]



View the full post here. http://chiccookiekits.blogspot.com/2010/11/silly-squirrels.html

Get your own squirrel cookie cutter for just $1 at Sur La Table. Though their expert frosting makes them cute, I'm not crazy about their shape. Here are a  few cuter one's I found googling.

amazon.com                                 http://www.thebakerskitchen.net               http://www.chefsresource.com

Also if you haven't seen them yet Bake Greek, a new startup, has plastic greek letter cookie cutters.


Hint hint, these might be great for holiday cookie exchanges. Including virtual ones ;-)

**I have received no endorsement from any of the companies whom's products are featured. I'm just sharing cute squirrel stuff I though you might enjoy.

I've traveled from one end of the city to the other in the name of
good food. My blog chronicles my dining excursions mainly in Manhattan, but also includes reviews from my travels around the US. Aside from food, you'll see occasional appearances from my other two loves, my Bama-born Yorkie, Dixie, and trapeze, my newest hobby.

Description:
I am a twenty-something young professional living in Cincinnati, Ohio. I've been here since May of 2008, and I have fallen in love with this city!



We recently moved to a new house, which I love more each and every day. We're having fun choosing paint colors, building furniture and sewing curtains.



I'm a social worker, and I work for a fantastic non-profit called Leadership Scholars. I spend my days helping inner-city kids in Cincinnati become leaders. Not a bad gig!
One of my students recently told me that I'm a young person with old person hobbies - which is totally true. My first love is quilting, but I've recently branched out to try other sewing projects. I love anything do-it-yourself.
Zac and I live with our anti-social cat who is cute but hates everyone but us. Our house doesn't have central air, so the no-blowdryer-casual-beach hair will be here until it's cooler outside! I had 10 minutes of fame as an MTV reporter a few years ago and my Gramma and I have all the same interests.
