I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond the other day looking for sheets. Even though there is one immediately across the street from work, I hadn't visited this one yet. The thing is, whenever I go there, I always forget they also sell kitchen stuff and then I'm pleasantly surprised when I stumble upon it. It's not like it's called Bed, Bath, Beyond and Kitchen Stuff. Anyway, I always enjoy looking at all the kitchen stuff, but I never buy any because a) My kitchen isn't that big (especially the new apartment) and b) I don't have a use for lots of it.
While I was browsing the kitchen implements and what-not, I found this:
It's a Rachael Ray brand garbage bowl. I have watched many episodes of 30 Minute Meals and I do understand the idea and use of a garbage bowl, and selling one that matches hers is fun, but it was also priced at $15. I think that's kinda pricey for something you throw your crap in (figuratively I hope). I have a feeling that it's meant to more of a conversation piece than anything; BB&B was also selling plain white plastic bowls of the same size for $5. The color/pattern looked exactly like when you mix salsa and cottage cheese: kind of a salmon pink with black, red and yellow flecks.
Also found at BB&B:
A banana hammock! And not the euphemistic kind.
PS - The garbage bowl is made from melamine. Mmm . . . tainted milk.
Yesterday I registered for a 1 day pass to San Diego Comic-Con 2009, and only 7 months in advance! Even though I lived in San Diego county for 3 years, I never attended a Comic-Con. I've watched countless hours of coverage on tv and excitedly read about screenings and swag, so I grabbed my chance as soon as single day registration was open. The only fan convention I've ever been to was a Star Trek convention in Phoenix when I was 13, so I am eagerly looking forward to the experience.
