Like a volatile lover, Chicago has turned cold again.  But the freezing wind isn’t hampering my annual craving for peach sherbet.  It’s just forcing me to eat said treat inside… while drooling over Etsy and its many candy-colored sweets.

Why, just the other day, I was chatting with the Shopping Sherpa, and I said, “Shopping Sherpa, I need some pretty art, jewelry and vintage housewares to cheer me up.  Something warm and strong, and a little unexpected.  Can you find me something like that, Shopping Sherpa?”  And you know what?  He knew just what I was looking for.
