picnic boutique + picnic goodies


I subscribe to a bajillion different online coupon companies that send out coupons based on what city you live in.   I think this one was from Scoutmob and it offered me 50% off coupon to a boutique in Russian Hill so I thought I would go check it out.

IT IS SO FREAKIN' CUTE!  They sell clothes, jewely and housewares stuff but I felt the clothes and jewelry were DRASTICALLY overpriced.  So I immediately headed over to the houseware items.



You can get tiny jewelry boxes to spell out digusting messages to your loved ones. hehehe.


You can also send your Valentine a cute v-day card showcasing the anatomy of the human body.


My husband the ninja caught me doing what I do best.  Shopping (Again).



HOW CUTE IS THIS?  The T-shirt not the Hubs. haha jkjkjkjkjk.


I wanted to take one of these heart shaped mugs home.. I thought they were so adorable and even comes with it's own spoon and placeholder.  LOVE


I've always seen this brand @ Neiman Marcus but I never really checked it out because it's so pricey.. but I figured since I had a 50% off coupon I would take a gander.  (Apparently it's one of Oprah's "favorite things".  No wonder it's so effin' pricy!).  The lotions are DIVINE.. they are so silky creamy and buttery smooth and they all have a nice delightful scent without being overbearing. 

salt & pepper chicken and watermelon slush

After our little shopping trip we went down the block to Quicky for some lunch.  HAHA.  Don't you know this is the lunch of champions?


So we ended up taking home the T-shirt of the rescue dog the hubs is holding up plus these goodies!


I love anything and everything to do with Matryoshka dolls something about them just make me happy.


I'm not going to use them as cups I'm just going to line them on my vanity next to my real Matryoshka doll that my parents brought for me on their trip to Europe and put jewelry/lipglosses/ makeup brushes in them.


I caved and bought the ridiculously overpriced ($24) lotion.  BUT IT SMELLS SO FREAKIN' GOOD.  It smells like a mix of apple, jasmine and roses! I have a really sensitive nose and most lotions that have scents in them really turn me off.  Plus it came out to $12 dollars.. although come to think of it.. I've never spent that much on lotion before either.  I'm kind of a no frills type of girl.. this is my normal everyday lotion.  HAHA see.  No Frills.  :)
