new finds at World Market

Andrew went back to Mother’s Day Out today and I had to wait on the new washer and dryer (fun, I know.)  I had an hour and a half between dropping off Andrew and the 4 hour window the delivery peeps gave me, so I headed over to World Market to see if they had my yummy chocolate covered sunflower seeds Anna Bess started me on.  I know you can find them at Border’s, but we are Bordersless here on the northshore.

Guess what I found.

My sunflower seeds in fall colors, no less.  Y’all, these are some kind of good.  Go get some.  I love World Market.  It’s like Pier1, but with more stuff.  I love the kitchen section.  I love kitchen utensils.  I know, I’m weird.  Here’s my next find to replace the collection of plastic kids cups from Longhorn, Macaroni Grill, and so on.

How cute are these?  They are perfect juice/milk glasses and they’re shatterproof (a great thing in our house.)  They come in cat, sheep, dog, frog, ladybug, and cow.  I got all six.  I used them for lemonade for the kids after-school snack and they loved them.  Go me!

Now, the next find is pretty disturbing.  I’ve warned you.

Now, in my day we called these snacks Cheetos.  It seems now marketing geniuses have turned the humble Cheeto into a Halloween treat.  Well, now I’m going to dump bags of these into my pumpkin bowl and give them to costumed kids by the handful.  I’m not putting them in Ziploc bags or anything, I’ll just put them in their candy bags and pumpkins ’cause that’s how I roll.  Nope, no bite-size Snickers or fun-size M&M’s this year!  If you trick or treat at the Faler house it’s Witches’ Fingers for you!  I hope Britney Spears comes this year.  You know she loves her Cheetos.  You think she likes Tab?  Maybe I should pick some up, you know, just in case.
