If you’re anything like me, you vascillate between cooking one week and eating out the next. The result: a lot of spoiled food, especially herbs. After all, what are you going to do with a whole bunch of parsley when you only need a smidgen? That’s why I’m obsessed with this 10-herb garden kit, which will not only spare you from this problem but also make your kitchen smell great.

This is one of the coolest things we’ve seen in a long time. Perfect for those who don’t get enough shuteye, the Axbo is the world’s first sleep phase alarm clock.
Getting enough sleep isn’t always about quantity–it’s also about where you are in your sleep cycle when you awaken. Axbo wakes you up at the Optimal point in your sleep cycle so that you’re not groggy upon awakening.
Genius….just genius.
€199 (US $244) (preorder) at Axbo.

We recently came across this amethyst necklace, designed and made by Kelly Meeker. Gorgeous design, beautiful craftsmanship.
Even better, you don’t have to worry about showing up somewhere wearing (god forbid) the same piece of jewelry. Kelly’s designs are produced in extremely limited quantities and are handcrafted by the designer herself. While you’re at Kelly’s site, check out her other designs, many of which are on sale. We’ve got our eye on the Faceted Garnet & White Freshwater Pearl Cluster Earrings, on sale for $44.
The icing on the cake? Kelly was kind enough to offer a
10% additional discount to Omiru readers. When you check out, enter OMIRU in the
notes section to get your discount!
$95 at Kelly Meeker Designs.

Scharffen Berger chocolate has a deliciously creamy texture and a full, rich flavor. Chocolate connoisseurs would agree that the Milk Chocolate is to Die for.
Let’s just say that once you go Scharffen Berger, you don’t go back.

This tennis tote is very country club, very preppy, very girly with its flirty pink color, quilting and bow tie. That’s exactly what we love about it — this is not your stinky gym bag.
