Mes Coups de Coeurs

I love to find good bargain. Don’t you? I love coming back home with great stuff and not having spent a fortune. Before moving to the surbubs I had no idea what stores like Target, TJ max, Dollars tree, or 99 cts looked like. I don’t remember having these kind of stores dowtown New York City. May be they have them now. Because our poor economy people are looking to buy bargains, these stores are really great! If you do not know them you should check them out.

 This morning I was hunting for new large plates that I can use during my Cooking Classes and for my Blog’s pictures. I stopped at T.J Max. Have you checked this store already? Ours, was renovated a few month ago and everything is now neat and organized. They have great clothes, tops, pants, dresses everything is really great for half the price you can buy it elsewhere and they have Designers clothes too. 

I went to their “kitchen and cuisine” section and it was hard to retain myself I wanted to buy everything from their Sarabeth’s Jam and preserves to amazing Halzenut, Truffle, Walnuts oil to their Balsamic figs vinegar.  I got a tiny jar of Truffes d’ete ( Italy)…

Not sure how I am going to use it ( stay tunned!) I may use it for my sramble eggs or fresh fettucines! I will post it soon.

Then I fell in love with georgous and so fine  tea cups from Calvin Klein. My husband and myself discovered Calvin Klein at Bergdof Goodman 5th Av during Summer 1993, just  before our wedding, my husband loved all his men clothes collection. Then later CK started woman collection and then a home collection. His boutiques are out of this world. I love his linen, his tablecothes, his dinnerware…so perfect, and beautiful and simple.

So when I saw this morning these georgous tea cups I had no idea they were from Calvin Klein. But I loved their shapes and simplicity.  I thought they may be from Royal Douton ( England) or something like that.I looked at the back of the  cup and saw CK name.  And what a bargain the retail price is for $ 45 and I got it for $ 6.99!  I grabbed them they were the last one. I love fine tea cups sorry I can’t drink my tea or coffee in those thick cups or mugs , my lips want something fine and thin.

 I think they are so perfect!

Then I noticed colorful yellow painted large plates and another one  smaller,   with more subtil  grey colors.

These large plates will be perfect for Summer dinner al Fresco!

Total of my bargain? $  20.99
