I enjoy the occasional sci fi movie just as much as the next guy, but you won’t see me at any Star Trek conventions any time soon. Still, I couldn’t help but be enamored with this flying saucer bowl set by Museum of Robots. It’s geeky, but not in the pocket protector and bi-focal wearing sort of way. More in a really quirky, modern, “where did you get that?!” sort of way.

I know it’s been a while since I have done a Drab or Fab post, but I have to get your opinion on this one.
Generally, all you have to do is think the word “floral” to make me run screaming in the opposite direction. I’m not a floral kind of girl. Unless of course that floral shows up in a bold, modern damask or close-up photography of flowers in black and white. But red roses? On bedding? Not for me. Usually. This bedding from Gaiam is (I can’t believe I’m saying this) making me reconsider.

My husband is a vegetarian, but I’m not quite there yet. I’m on my way though, as I don’t eat any red meat or pork — just poultry and seafood. But I love the look of leather furniture. I’ve never been a huge fan of leather clothing, but on a club chair? I can’t help but appreciate the luxurious look and feel of tightly upholstered leather. And the dream home office I have conjured in my head includes two beautiful white leather Barcelona chairs

My husband knows how much I like eclectic art and accessories. We have African masks and shadow boxes filled with handmade trinkets, and I’m typically drawn to colorful art like the Obama print I featured yesterday. But something tells me he might be a little freaked out if I brough home this recycled glass head from Pier 1. I love stepping out on a limb and doing something that’s a little different and a lot unexpected, but I think if this were in my home, I’d feel like its blank eyes were following me around the room.

Though I’ve never been on a true sailboat, I love the feeling of being on the water. Whether it was a ride on the ferry between St. Thomas and St. John (Virgin Islands), a spin on a paddle boat at Magen’s Bay Beach, or a ride on the Staten Island ferry, the water has always welcomed me. That said, this particular use for sails may be a bit too much for my taste.
