The Places We Go: Our Current Fave Sites

It’s not that you’re unfaithful, you just like to travel occasionally. We know, and we’re OK with that.

It’s a great big world out there—of websites that is. We actually have a roster of our own savvy favourites that come to our aid all the time. They’re nice to have in our lives (variety being the spice of life and all that).

If when we say ‘online’, you say ‘shopping’, check out etsy.com. It’s a fantastic online marketplace of handmade things to buy (and sell if you happen to be the crafty type). Run by computer geniuses (and former lego maniacs, we’re sure) who have created ways for you to shop by color (our personal fave—just try it!), place, time and material. Admire, inspire, desire—it’s amazing what people can create by hand (and a great stop to find the perfect gift for the girl who has everything or a one-of-a-kind Valentine’s present for your beloved).

If questions about where sock heaven exists keep you awake at night, we have the answer. www.monthlysocks.com might not be the place where those odd socks go but it is a slice of heaven for moms who need to replace them and now don’t have to make the trip to the store. Sign up for a subscription for quality men’s socks (good prices too!) delivered regularly to your door just like a magazine. That’s one errand you’ll never have to volunteer for again.
