New Header. Melamine Eggs. High-end Faucets.



Before leaving work today, I promised myself I would not turn the computer on. But I noticed that I had stray black pixels on my new header and the knowledge of it just nagged at me – I simply had to get it right.

So I cleaned it up. 

I’d also like to take this opportunity to credit Caneelia for the moon shot/image used for it.

============================================================

You know how they keep on repeating the headlines at CNN until you just about memorized them? Well, this morning, another form of China Melamine Scare was up – this time, on eggs!

How on earth could eggs get tainted with Melamine? 

It couldn’t be industrial transfer, that’s for sure. And it’s not middlemen adding melamine to up protein content (just how would they do that?). So how does it happen?!

============================================================

My mom bought the Bathroom Special of this magazine called Condo Living so we can find inspirations for our units that have been waiting for us for months.

Instead of being inspired though, I think it got me depressed! The featured spaces were just so lavishly furnished, and the surroundings so much more beautiful than what we’ve got. The faucet line alone – true steel works of art – made me cringe. They looked so modern and elegant – but most come with a heavy price tag. Oh, I’m sure there’s something there for the budget conscious too. I just can’t wait for the time when I can have the home I would grow old in, with resources enough to not worry about costs. ;)

It is time to contact your Congressman and ask them to immediately STOP all food & food ingredients including drink products from China. I have found that most U.S. food manufactures are using ingredients from communist China, these companies include Nestle’s, Kellogs, Cadbury, Iams, and more, we need to try and stop all consumable products from China, you can contact your representative at http://www.house.gov they claim for every one person that calls their Congressman it represents 10,000 people, do your part and call or email.

“Instead of being inspired though, I think it got me depressed!”

lol – that’s another reason why I’m not a big shopper – and especially not a window shopper!

It’s a problem for me too. Once I turn on the computer I’m lost to it. Grin.
