Tea Time Y’all
Blogged under Gifts, Household Necessities, Kitchen Wares by Barbara Kessler on Wednesday 23 August 2006

German Teapot.jpgIced Tea glass.jpg
Looking for home accents and functional art that looks cool in your kitchen? One of our new Shopperati sites, Just Luxe, has already found many of those “just right” items. Through them we found AKA Dwelling, which imports a lot of neat stuff for the kitchen. AKA sells this modern “Luna teapot” that’s so clean and fresh looking; not your grandmother’s teapot (although if you had your grandmother’s teapot it might be a cool collectible…but that’s a different discussion). This clear glass model has an included infuser, so you can watch your tea in action, and it can be washed in the dishwasher. For die-hard ice tea drinkers, AKA offers Assam double wall glass tumblers that require no coasters. Great for guests! AKA is based here in good ol’ Texas; the goods come from Germany and Switzerland. Best of all worlds.

Oh, the Horrors! Yes, Halloween is Getting Costly

black_widow.jpg

When Halloween rolls around, things no longer go bump in the night. They go “ka-ching.” That’s the sound of money in the till, and this holiday is big business for retailers. Americans will spend more than $5 billion for costumes, candy and spooky décor this year, according to a projection from the National Retail Federation.

Stores started hauling out the Halloween gear around Labor Day, so you may already be behind the curve on planning outfits for the kids, the grownups and even the pets. It’s time to hit the grocery store for candy – the average person will spend $19.84 for sweet treats, the federation says. And don’t forget the creepy creations for the front yard, the porch and inside the house. Halloween decorations have become a big part of the holiday, and the average person will spend almost $20 for them this year.
