Acorn digital audio player: For the nature lover in you
This Acorn digital music player isn't going to win any awards for great functionality, but it's certainly one of the more original portable designs we've seen around these parts. It's made out of wood! It's shaped like an acorn! What more do you want?
Very pretty.

So what did people do this weekend?
Took a half-day off on Friday and did a little shopping, then was home before 4:00. Slept and did a little Christmas tree decorating that night. Worked 8 hours at the bookstore, then was too tired and achy to go to a friend's Xmas party that night, so I napped, ordered in BBQ chicken, salad and gelato, and did a bit more cleaning. Sunday, I got up early, finished cleaning and decorating my tree (which came out beautifully!), put away my tree and decorations boxes in storage, and then went out shopping with ChiKat. Spent waaay too much at the bookstore (only got presents for two people, but spent a lot on myself) and dinner (but cheese fondue was very yummy, as was the yin/yang dessert of dark and white chocolate for dipping strawberries, bananas, brownies, and cheesecake into!).
