Pins

I bought these adorable pins in San Fransisco's Japantown last fall at the New People store.

One pin is a cute little octopus reading books, of course, and a little bear chilling out in a bowl of ramen noodles. I think they were only $1 each and I like to wear them on my backpack.

Fantastic Hummus

One night I went over to my friend's room with a new container of hummus and pita, thinking there would only be three ladies including me, little did I know it would be a party of five or six hungry people. In less than an hour, 75% or my beloved new container of Sonny and Joe's Garlic Addiction hummus was devoured. Though my friends apologized, they said that they couldn't stop because it was so delicious. Who can blame them? At $2.29 a pop at Jerry's (see my previous post), I will make sure to get more the next time I'm in the city or New Jersey.

Winter Leggings= Brilliant

I recently picked up a pair of winter leggings from American Apparel aka my favorite economically-moral American store and I am in LOVE. I already asked my Grandma to buy another pair for me in black. The reviews on the website say that the other colored tights are not as thick as black, and since I grew up in the warm tropical weather of South East Asia, warmer is always better in frosty up-state New York. They are definitely the most expensive leggings I have ever purchased at $38 each, but their texture is comparable to that of pajama pants or jazz pants.

While you are on the website, you should also check out their must-have winter selection. It is important to keep warm during these months and avoid getting sick like I did!
