Friday Five!
Back again with another list of fun spots and links... hope you enjoy checking them all out! FYI I have added a tab on the right where we'll archive all the Friday Five links so you can easily look them up later. And of course, please let me know if you find a store, group, or other event that you think our readers would enjoy and we'll add it to the list!
Funky Finds
This super-hip blog run by an Arlington shopper extraordinare gives regular updates on the latest artsy, funky products... everything from cards and jewelry to kids' products and original artwork. She even offers fun contests with great giveaways and has a million links to other like-minded shops and hot spots around the web. Be warned... it's the kind of site that will suck you in for hours... but you won't regret it!
Volunteer Match.org
So you've always wanted to do something, but don't know where to start? This fabulous site is a perfect all-in-one resource for finding a way to match your time & talents with the needs of local and national charities. Even one hour a week can make a huge difference to the groups in need.. check them out and get involved!
Safety Tat
Not a fan of the name but I LOVE this product! Order custom made temporary tattoos with your name and/or phone number printed on the design. The next time you go to the mall, fair, or other busy location with your kids you can ink them all and let them play with peace of mind, knowing that should they wander off you can be easily located! An added bonus usage.. special allergy warnings, so you don't have to wait for your kids to be old enough to tell someone they need a nut or dairy free diet... they'll be labeled for safety!
Prayers for Britney
I know, I know.. but I can't help it! I really feel for the girl. So I was thrilled to see at least one site on the world wide web that isn't rejoicing in her breakdown, but instead trying to focus the story on the fact that this is really one sick little girl who need some serious help! How much help virtual prayers from random strangers around the world will actually give is to be seen, but it feels better than watching the latest stalkarazzi video of her morning starbucks trip!
Color Quiz
Another completely mindless site.. but I've sent this around to friends and been amused to see how accurate the results have been! A silly waste of time for an otherwise gloomy Friday afternoon.. enjoy! (p.s. I was Aqua!)
Have a great weekend!
