Kansas City is the kind of place that has more like two degrees of separation than six. As I was working out yesterday and recounting the antics of the weekend nearly every woman there was saying, "Who? Oh, right, his sister was in my class." or "His mother is a good friend of mine." or "I think she's listing a house on our street." Like that. 
Today, I'm introducing something terrific from Mr. Blanding's boyhood neighbor's nephew's wife. Got it?
Lara Shelton, originally from Indianapolis, married a nice boy from "our town." She has two little boys, and to create an escape from the trucks and sippy cups she has started her own line of melamine plates.
Check out her site. The plates are customizable by pattern, color, type style, nearly anything. Mrs. Blanding's readers will receive a 10% discount through June 1st by entering the code laplates10. Summer's right around the corner. These are just the thing for beach, pool or lake - or pbj's while you're running through the sprinkler.Labels: Product
