Too Many Choices?
I recently viewed Barry Schwartz speak on TED
about the Paradox of Choice. It kind of blew
my mind. He made the point that we have so
many choices now that it virtually paralyzes us.
Consider this...
You are at the grocery store and you
have over 150 salad dressings to choose from. You
hem and haw over which one to choose and finally
commit. You go home with one, try it and you don't like it.
Damn.
Well, you only have yourself to blame because you
are the one who decided which dressing would be the
best from all the other choices.
But, had there only been one salad dressing choice,
you would have no other option but to pick it up, and
try it. If you didn't like it, the fault would lie
with the salad dressing maker and not with-in
your decision making skills. A relief.
Barry Schwartz's point is that choice has not made us
freer. No, in fact it has done just the opposite, today people
are walking around more dissatisfied than ever...
Kind of interesting isn't it?

Summer Scarves from Turkey... xox
Summer Scarves are one of those items I LOVE but
often forget about because in Maryland it is often too hot
to wear them. So, when I found these beautiful Turkish Scarves
at SENNUR I was reminded of just how much I love them.
I mean just look at them! They look so light and delightful.
Well...
I love them so much, I bought the red one (eee! so excited!)
I think it will be really cute in the fall as well.
Dave and I have a few fall weddings coming up and
it may find its way into the wedding circuit.
Hows the weather where you live?
Can you wear scarves year round?

Do you care for a Pillow?
Have you ever noticed how having the right
pillow is like having the perfect necklace?
Aren't these pillows by Lone Chimney beautiful?
They would match our life great:
Out with the red, in with the adorable
Lone Chimney Collection.
