It’s been a long while since I’ve featured a product for pets, and when I saw this one, I knew it was time. The Litter Robot is precisely what it sounds like: It is a contraption that automatically separates messes from kitty litter so you never again have to scoop cat poop manually.
Now, I am not a cat owner, and although I’m actually really fond of cats, my dislike for the litter box might stop me from ever owning one. I have lived with a cat, and although I had no problem feeding her and even rubbing her down for “baths,” I HATED clearing the litter box. It was always a stomach-churning task for me, and I generally have a pretty strong stomach.

It’s been a while since I’ve found something truly worthy of a Drab or Fab post, but when I saw these heads at Anthropologie the other day, I knew they were perfect for one. As a general rule, I’m averse to the idea of having animal heads hanging from a wall, whether they’re real or fake (HOPEFULLY not real, though). But there’s something about these two that draws me in. They’re almost — dare I say it — cute, and even slightly modern.

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
