Holidays: What I want for me

Posted by Siel in consumerism, greenLAgirl (Sunday November 26, 2006 at 6:41 pm)

Is it narcissistic to kick off my holiday posts with a wishlist pour moi? Peut-etre, mais c’est mon blog.

Thus: What I’d like to get these holidays — mostly stuff for my new apt :)

Square Bamboo salad bowl set. It’s quite possible I have a bamboo fetish. But really, I need something I can make and serve my friends salad in :)

I really wanna start composting, and need this Envirocycle Composter. In green, please :)

This organic bamboo, fairly made utensil tray still sounds about perfect for my still-bare kitchen — [Update, 12/20/06: Received! Thanks sis!]

You know I’m a grad student — and I’ve got reading to do. You can gimme a double with these by ordering via the Abebooks link below, which’ll give me a kickback. Buy used! :) Top 5 books I want are:

* Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things. A book you can read in your bath, literally — cuz it’s waterproof.
* You Grow Girl: The Groundbreaking Book to Gardening. The title sez it all, and the blog’s a fun read too.
* Music and Suicide: Poems by Jeff Clark
* Ghost Girl by Amy Gerstler.
* Antonin Artaud: Selected Writings

 
 

Gift lists for other people to come soon — Happy Holidays :)

  1. Hi Siel…

    Bamboo question:

    Do you know where I can buy bamboo baskets, preferably fair trade? Need a bunch for sprouting.

    Thanks,
    Larry

  3. Is the noun “blog” or “weblog” in the possessive masculine tense a la francaise? Good holiday picks regardless.

    Incidentally, as an atheist, how can this period leading up to Dec. 25 be modified as “holy?”

  4. I believe so. But la blogosphere is feminine, maybe?

    It’s not holy. It’s holi.
