We here at SmartLassy are a little ... ummm ... obsessed with Macintosh goodies, and we love this t-shirt, which is available in women's sizes. Show you know your way around a toolbar and pay homage to those icons that have saved your hyde on so many occasions. Eraser? You're our best friend.

Haven't you always wanted your very own monster? Cleveland artist Len has started his second series of Monsters by Mail, and this time, the theme is "fictional monster movies." By the way, the image featured here is of the monster I ordered from him called "BloggerGirl." It rocks, and you can see it here. Order soon ... monster-making is only happening for a limited time.

Looking for that perfect bag to go along with the Little Black Dress? This clutch is a replica of the original Nintendo controller and conjures up warm memories of all those hours we you spent playing "Ninja Gaiden" when you should have been playing outside. 6" high by 7" wide, so there's enough room for lip gloss, ID, credit cards, and some of those gold coins you collected while saving the Princess.

Sorry about the title. Couldn't help it. Anyway, I was searching for a cool gadget to add to the blog, and this was not only the coolest I could find, but possibly the most goofy-for-goofy's-sake as well. Display your love of Japanese cuisine by plugging in one of these sushi jump drives. From the 256 futomaki and sake drives to the 4 gig otoro drive, choose from a stunning array of "cuisine" that would put a california roll to shame. Only thing missing is the wasabi.

We've all known those caustic people who love to make fun of hippies. If you're sick of patchoulli jokes and want to embrace your hippiness and display it to the world, consider the "Hippie Chicks" wall art from the Chicks on the Go series by artist Margaret Taylor, who hand-paints each stainless steel piece. Not the hippie type? Two other styles are available: Pickup Chicks and Topless Chicks. Each is between 12-16" in length and 7-10" in height. Buy all three and they might be enough to replace the celestial-print tapestry hanging on your living room wall. Hee hee.

When we first saw our friend Tony wearing this shirt, we nearly hit him over the head so we could steal it. But we're not that mean, so we ordered one of our own. Also? Cotton Factory is based near our (Kate's) hometown, which is proof that good things CAN come out of New Kensington, Pennsylvania. CF has tons of other great designs, so make sure to check out their site. Note: Girl t-shirts are made to fit close to the body, and ours shrunk a little in the wash, so you might want to order a size up. Sweatshirts also available.

It's Spring, and if you're stuck behind a desk or cubicle wall all day, it's hard to find time to get out and make your garden grow. Console yourself by adorning your desk with the Carnivorous Creations plant kit. It features over 10 varieties of carnivorous plants, including the Cobra Plant, Venus Fly Trap, Pitcher Plant, and Trumpet Plant. Grow them big enough to swallow your boss, then take some time off.

Staring at the computer screen for long hours can wear on the eyes, and sometimes you need a little extra light. Try one of these adjustable, self-standing lamps that are powered by your USB port. Great for airplanes, car trips (unless you're the one driving), and blackouts ... as long as your laptop is charged.
