Less is... Less

I love miniature things. It's not just a matter of neccessity given my lack of space, I just think little things are awesome. You know - Polly Pockets, the mini stapler and roll of tape that Betty got me, mini post-its, my mini food processer...

Which is why Pearl River Mart in New York City is the best store ever. Period. I had an afternoon to kill in New York recently and spent the entire time there contemplating what I could carry back to Philly in my purse. I should have brought a suitcase.

If I had a larger apartment I would furnish it entirely with stuff from Pearl River. I used every ounce of self control to only buy a few practical things for my kitchen, but I couldn't help myself when I saw these:


I thought maybe Sam could use the bamboo steamer the next time he's hungry for one dumpling, and Betty can grate some tiny cheese.
