After work you have so many thoughts on your mind but when it gets warmer, you only think about one thing - drinks! I love the fact you're more inclined to go all over the city just to get a great drink. Whether you're going to have one or a few, you still want to have a fun experience! One of my favorite places that's not only cozy but has an inventive menu is Cibar! I love that although this is a girly bar with its pink walls, you definitely see lots of people popping in and out! Take some time to check this out and I am in LOVE with their massive martini list!
Over the past few Sundays, I have been drooling over the Pottery Barn. They totally get it! I love that right now when it comes to creating a home office whether you work from home, need something for the weekends, etc - that they have great looks for all styles! I love that whether you're classic, minimalist or simply into the mod look, you don't have to have a boring and uninspiring work space! Check out the gallery - I have to say that the Bedford is my favorite as I always need to have tons of organization space!
I love when you begin working on a new project! Yes it is a lot of hard work but when you think about what it means in terms of the enjoyment and long term effects, you stop thinking about how long it will be. Well last night, I attended an event that reminded me that I would have to find time to do something that I don't know how I will find the time, but it is well worth it. Although I can't reveal details this second, know that you will be able to enjoy many of the things that you have come to enjoy about this site and it will be enhanced! Kudos to Golf Girl who turned my attention to this fun site where you can play a game of words and it makes a nice little arrangement of selected words whether it is your feed, words you chose (as I did) or more. Take some time to visit the galleries and to find out a lot more about Wordle.
I can't tell you how many salads I go through in a general week but any chance I get to add some goodness to leafy greens is much appreciated! Working Mother Magazine and Kraft Dressing teamed up to promote good health by making July 30th, National Bring Your Salad to Work Day in an effort to encourage women to do something good for their bodies and to get some much needed energy. Interestingly enough, the 2007 Best Working Mother Companies were given the opportunity to win a salad maekover. The winner would receive a visit from the Working Mothers Sampling Squad and they would give out Kraft Salad Dressing On the Go Packs. Tomorrow, Liz Claiborne will receive this makeover.
So set a time for tomorrow and see who can make the yummiest salad with the freshest ingredients tomorrow. Not only should this be done tomorrow but having a group salad day once a week is great and doing it with others will definitely be an encouragment. If you work from home or freelance, you can still get in on the fun whether you meet up with other freelancers or you decide to eat it in the park. Whichever way you do it, make this apart of your lifestyle and check out Krafts Dressings on the Go! Tomorrow, you'll see pictures from the Working Mother Squad's makeover at Liz Claibourne's headquarters!
Since Friday, the city has continued on with Earth Day activities with the Go Green Expo that has taken place in the city. This is a great way to see how you can go green at work, home and anywhere in between. There are seminars, a variety of booths and more. With everyone talking about this concept, this is a great event to learn how to put it in to practice and to see the dedication on various levels where this is being put into operation! I am actually attending today which is the shortest of this week's schedule. I am definitely excited to taste the food, wine and to just learn how I can start applying this into my everyday life and of course to share with others. Visit the site to see what interests you and since it is being held at the Hilton on 53rd and 6th Ave, you'll be near some great areas to have lunch or dinner afterwards.
So I am looking for a little feedback here. The whole reason why I have a laptop is for the ease of use no matter where I am. I love that I can sit in my kitchen, move to the couch and just take it out of my apartment when I am feeling a little cagey so to speak. My mom will come over and complain that I should have a little table or stand for it; however, I feel that it is cozy when it is in my lap! But it did get me to thinking and although they have beautiful cabinets where your laptop can sit, when you have the fabulously sized apartments in the city, who needs extra space taken up with those. At the same time, the little laptop mats seem more annoying and not so secure.
So I let my fingers do the walking and went to Ikea.com (you have to love that this is a space saver AND not going to break the budget) and found this cute little thing - a laptop table known as the DAVID. Now when I am just browsing I may not use this; however, there are many times where I have papers and books that need to be in my lap and having my laptop on something like this wouldn't be such a bad idea! Thoughts and ideas? I love the fact that that the height is adjustable and for all those that have a studio and a home office - you can now use this during those work hours and feel like you have a designated space for work!
