1. I don’t know how any designer works without zip ties.

2. How can I function without my iPhone and iPad nowadays?

3. …and our acrylic baby easel makes the perfect iPad stand.

4. It’s 5:00 somewhere so a happy hour cocktail is always a good idea.

5. A Jesus belt buckle is my favorite accessory.

6. …but a hand-tied bow tie fits any occasion.

7. Vibram FiveFingers are going to take me across the finish line of the 2011 NYC marathon.

8. I cannot live without my rice cooker!

9. A folding bike is perfect to cross-train/eco-commute in the big city.

10. I love the sound of a ukulele.

I would really love to see you bring back the Abaca Balls you carried a few years ago. I didn't buy them then but I would LOVE to get them. The colors of lime green charcoal and orange are still so current. It would be wonderful if you could bring those back! Any chance of that?
