    • if you're going to san francisco....moment of spark

      i just returned from a trip to san francisco and fell in love with the city. while the trip was for work i had a few minutes to walk around downtown near the bay bridge. i happened upon the ferry building where some amazing little shops are.



      i checked out
      the gardner which is a fun shop that sells great home items. i saw some great bird feeders, fun gifts and unique items.

      there was also a great farmers market where t
      he nectarines were the size of grapefruits and the tomatoes were so delicious you could eat them like an apple.

      we also stopped at an organic bakery called miette. we promptly ordered 6 delicious cupcakes. see their website here.

      thanks to my friend monica who forced me to leave the hotel and check on the ferry building and market.

    • housewarming gifts for your favorite bachelor

      [Ed. note: We don't usually cover much in the way of dude decor, but Shine reader Carolyn Clark found some great pieces to pick up for the style-challenged bachelor in your life. Check them out. Thanks, Carolyn!]

      bachelor pads can be a struggle. often these "pads" are lacking cool décor and "expression" - sorry guys but you know it is true. i recently discovered resource revival and think that every bachelor needs to check out these green, green, green products! cool decoration + good for the planet = big win with the ladies.


      made from recycled bike parts these tea lights rock! they are $12.99 each but would make a great gift for a bachelor moving into a new pad! they are sleek but manly.


      and this is gorgeous. it is a bowl that is made from a recycled bicycle chain . another great gift for a bachelor. it is more on the pricey side at $88 but is awesome.


      this is also resource revival found at elsewares.com. it is a cool picture frame and is $38.
