Earrings.  Personalized tote bag.  Sea Salted Caramels.

What do they have in common?

They’re all available at Red Envelope.  I’ve shared about my Red Envelope love before and I’ll gladly do it again.  It’s the one place I continually shop and receive excellent service.  Plus, I can pay through PayPal which is ever so convenient!

This time around I purchased…earrings.  Small Artisan Stone Earrings to be exact.


Oh!  They are so lovely!  A delicate blue topaz stud earrings.  They are just the right size, something I can wear and something Paige can wear too.

I’ll admit, I’m a bag lady.  I’d go so far to say that I’m addicted to bags.  I instantly fell in love with the Seahorse Family Canvas Tote.  I love the color of this tote!  The buttery yellow is even more beautiful in person.   It’s the perfect size for my iPad, phone and cash, plus it’s big enough for Pea to stash a couple of coloring books, colors and/or snacks.

It’s definitely going to be my summertime bag.  We’ve got plenty of swim dates and ball games in the works.

The pièce de résistance, Handmade Gray Sea Salted Caramels.  I’ve read about them but didn’t realize what in the world I was missing out on.

Oh.  My.


I shared these delectable delights at work {because my booty doesn’t need them all!} and everyone is just as wild about them as I am.  The caramels are a mixture of milk and dark chocolate and that sprinkling of sea salt on the top…wow!  It’s really something!
