Food Story

Posted by Trendy Chick on November 25th, 2009

My g/f who has kids with college student loan told me the other day that she cannot afford to buy tupperwares or go to tupperware parties because she had to save every penny for them.  I know where she is coming from and also where she is going to.  But truth be told, I’m big [...]

Cloth Or Paper?

Posted by Trendy Chick on November 18th, 2009

I’ve often wonder how people use cloth napkins clean them and what kind of mess the guests would leave behind with their cloth napkins.  So I started thinking, should i use paper or cloth for my coming festivities?  It would be a lot easier to use paper of course, afterall, paper napkins are just as [...]

Dinner Party Extender

Posted by Trendy Chick on November 11th, 2009

Finally i found a party table extender for this Christmas since the in-laws are coming over for Christmas dinner at our place.  Putting away my new tuxedo for a family dinner this year instead of celebrating at the hotel, maybe a cheaper alternative for everyone in the family.  But instead of buying another table, we [...]

Glass Knobs

Posted by Trendy Chick on September 24th, 2009

I never thought I would see these glass knobs ever again.  When i was younger, I never liked them in my grandfather’s house but how i wished we had retained some of these wonderful looking glass knobs for our home and kitchen.  I bet i would be showing off my kitchen more often.. if i [...]

Arty Farty Toaster

Posted by Trendy Chick on August 23rd, 2009

Don’t get me wrong, I love the arty farty toaster.. i mean.. having a toaster that works is great.. but having one that is pretty and works.. it’s double job.  The same reason why guys buy  car accessories for their cars. At about $80 – not really too expensive if you ask me.

Add a splash [...]

Trays

Posted by Trendy Chick on July 20th, 2009

These tv trays are very popular in the West, we don’t see much of this back home but these ones are so pretty, one cannot resist it.   I wouldn’t mind having one of it instead of the wooden ones – those are too common.  But you can even use these for your outdoorsy summery BBQ [...]
