Let me gussy up your office. Please.

I'm not cheating on us. I swear. But remember that interview I recently gave over at Herman Miller? Well, in who'd-a-thunk-it news, it actually ended up leading me to a great new side-gig as a contributing writer for Herman Miller's Lifework blog. (Collective group hug!) (I mean, if you're comfortable with that.) (!)

Lifework focuses on how work life and your everyday life merge, and I've been charged with creating roundups of items for the office that look chic and act professional. And on Wednesdays, bust out that iTunes gift certificate you got (and still haven't used) from your Secret Santa or your totally hip aunt--I'm going to be doing a new series on music, which will include interviews with cool people on how music inspires the cool work they create (very cool playlists included). I'm hoping that series will launch next Wednesday, February 24, so stay tuned.

My first post went live yesterday with a roundup of an office, er, staple: staplers. Five fabulous ones, to be exact. Check it out here.

Please do stop by often. I'll be here; I'll be there. And be sure to let me know what you think (and if you're ever on the hunt for a particular office item...I may dedicate a little roundup to you!).

A little post with a lot of calories.

I just happened to have my camera on me today at the office. Two of my generous co-workers just happened to bring in homebaked goodies* to treat our staff. And we all just happened to end our work day two pounds heavier (and happier, so it was totally, totally worth it).

*Thanks to the lovely Margaret and Beth (who blogged about the above cookies here--they're under 100 calories each...which doesn't really help much if you eat like, five, right?).
