Her Asian-themed camisole/short sets, pajamas, robe, and assorted sleepwear debuted THIS WEEK.
–Of course, it’s best used sparingly if you are a white chick dating a Japanese guy…for example….as it might spin a bit cliche.

Otherwise, lovely colour palette and wearable designs.

Target Practice

As in I should have made a few trial runs because by the time I hit the store the Missoni was all-gone-y.

Yeah. Well, anyway. I apparently was not the only one as it was reported that their TARGET.com website actually crashed twice under the weight of anxious buyers filling orders of the Italian high line designer’s fare for the chain store.

Their displayed range included children’s wear, housewares, barrettes, hats, tights, lingerie, and their famed knits scaled to quasi affordable proportions, and based on the coupon that YYC received upon checkout, apparently a sheet set only available ON LINE. Mamma Mia.

Shoppers apparently cleaned the racks as fast as they were filled and by the close of business EST (10PM) only odd sizes and scattered items could be snuffled out next to dressing room discard bins and a few display racks.

Next time I’ll work on my aim! That said, I have a feeling that it will be readily available on eBay (for a price). Happy hunting.

Conspiracy Theory—

or
Why I never did trust those Little Elves in the Hollow Tree.

So, I’m hunting down my favourite Keebler cookies–the peanut butter lover’s chocolate chip variety and it’s vanished!

Naturally, I’m thinking—okay, another e coli issue in the food stuffs like about a year ago when it all got yanked off the shelves—but, no….(work with me here, if I HAD a sample for a picture to illustrate this post, girlfriends, I’d use it and then eat the props).

Now at Target, I see a bag of the competition: CHIPS AHOY WITH REESES PEANUT BUTTER CHIPS COOKIES…..

Chips Ahoy cookies with Reeses Peanut Butter Chips

This was never available before as a product. I would have scoped it out in desperation…..

Methinks there is a plot afoot.

Worry not, I am in the process of testing this thing out….sort of a blind taste test on different bags.

I’ll keep you apprised of my results.
P.S. Tell Jenny Craig I’ll be calling in two weeks.
