Who's the Boss?

October 16th, a Sunday, is national Boss's Day.  This is our opportunity to salute the Top Dog, the Head Honcho, the Big Cheese!

Now, what I am suggesting is not a casual cheers of the Coors Light while sitting down to take in a day's full of football; rather, as with most observed holidays - I recommend that this Sunday holiday be observed the following Monday, October 17th.  This also happens to be Evel Kenevil's birthday - and if you do it right - you can rock both like the daredevil I know you are!

As with most holidays, a gift may be in order for National Boss's Day.  Something practical would be great, allowing your boss to keep up on those innovative and dynamic qualities that allow him/her to rock your professional world.

This Evel Knievel Lego Minifigure lanyard is great for the real fearless leader in your life:  

Or perhaps your boss is the down and dirty type...  Another option is the Evel Knievel napkins - for those boss' that dare to do the dirty jobs!


However you choose to celebrate this day of all days for your boss, remember one thing: this person controls your paycheck.  Go big, or go home!

*This day is especially excited for those that are self-employed.  My "go big or go home" advise still applies...

Under-appreciated foods week!

 

 This week is the time to celebrate two of the worlds under-appreciated foods. Eggs and Mushrooms.

October 11 is World Egg Day! Eggs tend to get a bad wrap. Are they good for you? Are they bad for you? Yes. No. Yes. Maybe. Who knows, and furthermore who cares. Today is a day to celebrate these self-contained packages of awesome. So scramble, fry, beat, boil whip these little devils to your heart's content. Then sit down and check out some of our egg-themed Etsy goodness...

Once you're done its time to rest up for the weekend when it'll be time to celebrate mushrooms! Sure they like dark, damp places, and they usually smell kinda funny - but when it gets down to it, they're always the most fungi (*insert groan here*) at the party.
