Handsy

This is a product I can personally vouch for. It's Dr. Hauschka Hand Cream, and it's fantastic.

It's also pretty expensive, at $22.95 for a 1.7-oz. tube.

But! It's not tested on animals, is all organic, and--this is why I love it so dearly--you can put it on your hands, and it immediately soaks in without leaving your hands greasy. So if you sit at a computer all day like I do, you can put it on and not have to wait 10 minutes for your hands to stop sliding all over your keyboard.

I might call it the perfect hand cream, but I'll wait for it to go on sale before I go that far.

UPDATE: OK, so I've had this stuff for about a month now, and I'm officially hooked. I've decided it's worth the price, and when my tube is all used up (which is taking a lot longer than I thought; you don't have to use much of this stuff at a time), I'm definitely going to buy a new one.

An Apple a day.

Have you seen the new iPod shuffle? It's so teensy that you might have to look a little bit closer... but this baby holds as much as my old school Nano and it talks. With the push of a button, it will tell you what song you're listening to and who's performing it. Plus, unlike its predecessor where you're at the mercy of its random selection, the new shuffle allows you to create playlists (no more Dido popping up and ruining the momentum of your run).

Apple will never cease to amaze and tempt me with their cutting edge awesomeness. Conveniently, my birthday is next month. Although I already got an iPhone as an "early birthday present." Guess this will have to go on my wish list.
