You know how some people have the ability to go into a thrift store and come out with something fabulous every time? I am not one of those people. All I seem to find are one-eyed stuffed animals and Z. Cavaricci pants. That’s why I like buying vintage items on Etsy–someone else has already done…

One Cent Books | The Best of Cooking Light
Cooking Light is one of my favorite magazines. I look forward to its arrival every month because it always has such great meal ideas–meals that are light, but don’t feel like they’re light. They really have a knack for making you not know you’re eating something that’s lower in calories or fat. So if each…
Love It | Novica Tableware
I’ve written about Novica before on The Type A Housewife. It’s a website that I love because it partners with artisans from around the globe and helps them get exposure for their work. Among my favorite items sold by Novica are their tableware and linens. Each piece tells a story and I love the color…

Oh Yum | Salt
Yes, salt! Why not? In moderation, salt is delicious. It can bring out the flavors of dishes that are just meh and adds interest and complexity to things that are sweet (like my Sea Salted Peanut Butter Cups). I especially love sea salt because it brings the ever-important element of crunchiness to whatever you add…
Heartsy | $10 for $21 at Helsia Jewellery
Today’s Heartsy deal comes all the way from Canada (perhaps the spelling of the shop’s name tipped you off?)! Helsia Jewellery sells dainty, delicate accessories that are perfect for adding a little pop of color to whatever you’re wearing. I love the floral earrings and hair pins–even though it’s November, I can’t help but think…

This particular book is about putting a different spin on traditional dessert recipes–it’s all about using new flavors and getting out of your culinary rut….

Heartsy | $15 for $30 at Psyche Minerals
If you use mineral makeup, you should join Heartsy because HOLY COW are there a lot of mineral makeup deals on there.
