At the age of around one year most children become determined to feed themselves. This is a frustrating time for toddlers, as their motor coordination is not yet fully developed and their attention span is short.


They have the desire to self-feed but don't necessarily have the ability to do it. Result? Hungry, frustrated toddler, lots of mess and stressful mealtimes!


The Me-Feed-Me collection from Salmon Luke includes a bowl and cutlery set which have been designed to make it easier for children to master the tricky art of self-feeding.


The Me Feed Me Bowl features:- 3 easy-scoop cutlery sized corners to guide food onto the spoon for a mouth-sized helping - Wave shaped rim flips food onto the cutlery and not over the side of the bowl- Chunky squat design and stable non-slip base mean it is less likely to move around on the highchair and end up on the floor.


The Me Feed Me Fork and Spoon Set features:- High backed spoon design impedes food sliding off - Ingenious tail stops cutlery rolling over on the tableWhat's more, Salmon Luke's Me Feed Me products are the only ones to be made from Hygienik, a material with a unique formula tested to stop the growth of illness-causing bacteria such as MRSA, E.coli and salmonella. Even repeated washing, scrubbing or scratching does not affect its bacteria fighting performance.Me Feed Me Dinnerware by Salmon Luke is available in Rocket Blue and Perfect Pink.
Price: £15.99 (Inc: VAT at 17.5%)
Not sure what that is in US Dollars but it seems like a good thing - I like things that keep MESS off the floor.

Ready to leave the cold period behind you? Here's a little something to get you thinking Spring/Summer: a super cute little matchbook that holds a clever secret inside. Tear out a match, stick it into some soil with its head first and in no time you will be growing a little herb garden and right next to it a flower garden. The secret? Each tip of a match has a seed stuck to it, ready to start growing with a tiny bit of TLC…

Wondering what's included? The herbs are Basil, Chives, Parsley and Thyme and on the flower side you'll be looking at Cornflower, Shasta Daisy, Corn Marigold and Field Poppy. You'll get one matchbook each and each contains 10 matches…
These are $10 and they just seem so cute and wonderful!
FROM THE WEBSITE:


For as long as I can remember, I’ve been dreaming about finding that quintessential tee. Nothing trendy, something simple and basic, that anyone can wear, anytime! I’ve searched near and far, but still never found it. I've come close, but something was always off.



My objective was to find a flattering tee that always fit perfectly, day after day, wash after wash. I soon learned I was not alone in my quest for the perfect tee. The majority of women have issues with buying clothes that fit, flatter, and feel good.



Finally, I got fed up with my t-shirt hunt. Finding the perfect tee should not be harder than finding the perfect man! I realized that if there was a t-shirt I wanted to wear, I’d have to design it myself. A few months later, K-street was born.

With K-Street I wanted to take my passion for tees- “the perfect white one,” a fashion house lie, and make the myth a reality. So, screw small, medium, and large. Women aren’t built in just one of three ways. K-street tees have a more custom fit. They are measured more specifically, and come in more than just three generic sizes.

All my tees are pre-measured, based upon a universal chart and then modified by chest, waist, and hip measurements. When ordering my tees, all you need to provide are your bra and waist sizes. And trust me, as an avid shopper; I know that waist sizes fluctuate depending upon designer – but, not to worry because I have the waist measurements within a pre-defined range.
When we look good, we feel good. K-street tees are manufactured in the U.S. and are made of certified organic pima cotton of the highest grade. These tees, my tees, your tees, are measured and made to order. K-Street t-shirts don’t come off a rack. They are made for humans by humans. It’s not a revolution, but it is revolutionary. It’s a new take on an old staple, the potential for comfort and style in your exact fit. So come take a walk down K-Street, and experience the ultimate in T-shirt couture!

Personalized art prints for all occasions.

As you stroll down Memory Lane, you'll notice the colorful and striking graphics, icons and logos… each one the "keyword" or "visual abbreviation" of a specific event, person, place, thing, or time that the recipient would consider a cherished Memory or Moment.

Your Memory Lane is a highly personalized, custom-made art print that celebrates the recipient’s memories of yesterday, joys of today, and dreams of tomorrow. This is an exceptional visual digest and keepsake gift that is as one-of-a-kind as the person, company, or group that receives it.

Don McLean, Bob McLean, and their staff of artists work personally on every art print, transforming the factual information you provide (in a keyword list) into the bold and charming images that you see depicted on each street.



Your Memory Lane art prints are available in 3-, 5-, and 8-building formats. A 5-building street (shown above) showcases up to 24 Memories and Moments, up to 4 named street signs, and up to 5 vehicles, all chosen by you. Select your format by budget or by the number of Memories and Moments that you would like displayed.

I love this idea - I just hope that I can remember the things that I would want to put in it!!

The Large Chop 2 Pot takes advantage of the latest technology in polypropylene living hinges to create probably the most efficient chopping board out there. Use the large board to chop and dice your ingredients, then simply squeeze the handle and voila; the board folds into a chute that guides the food easily and cleanly into a pot.
