It Isn't Coach, But...

My iPod isn't a mini either.  I don't think Coach makes a Nano cover so when I saw this offering from Das Blau, I snatched it up.  I selected the brown leather, of course, because I'm partial to that type of material. 

If you have a Nano or know someone who does, I think this lightweight wrap is a great alternative to the clunkier covers that look only at home tucked in teenagers' backpacks.  It has a satiny inside that is stitched well and a clear sleeve to tuck the Nano into so you can eliminate the fingerprints even the cleanest fingers leave on the shiny, silver backside of the player.

Some other favorites from the holiday:

A double-shot of Amazing Grace soap from Philosophy.  I had tried the Pure Grace variety of this signature fragrance line and liked it okay.  Amazing Grace is really good and I'd like to try Baby Grace before it's all said and done.  The soap lathers really well, doesn't leave a residue and will be especially nice in the summer.  Right now, my skin could probably benefit from some Philosophy lotion as a follow-up.  Happy Birthday to Me??

I'm looking forward to trying out this silicone bakeware from KitchenAid.  It's oven safe to 475 degrees, can be frozen, refrigerated and microwaved as well as washed in the dishwasher.  I'd like to try it out immediately if I could just talk Hubs into getting in the truck and going out to purchase a cake mix and frosting.  I think I've almost accomplished the impossible because he's intrigued by the bakeware's composition as well as the idea of having cake for breakfast tomorrow.

More scrapbooking items came to belong to me over the holiday as well.  This snazzy, classy set from Leeza Gibbons really struck my fancy because of the color of the papers as well as the patterns.  LOVE toile and like adding classic papers and such to the family album I started not long ago.  I'm going to crack it open and look at the idea book as well.  Looking for some inspiration as I prepare for a weekend of unabashed scrapbooking at the hotel while Hubs is learning to be a better soldier.

Received some good music as well as some nice clothes, a set of Bare Escentuals make-up and some other odds and ends that added up to making 2005's Christmas very Merry and Bright.

Love these new additions to the M List!!

You will love the Bare Essentuals makeup. I have been using it for about 4 months, and woudl not use another product after using this. I am definately hooked and would recommend to everyone. Yes it is expensive, but it sure makes your face feel like there is no makeup whatsoever. Hope you enjoy as much as I have.
