The Great e-Roundup December 23, 2008

Posting will be spotty for the holidays, folks, and I have to make this one quick. We have a guest in town, chocolate crinkle cookies in the oven and I still have meetings at the magazine and interviews and writing to do... And halls to deck with holly! Check back for updates as I'll blog as time allows.

Cupcakes and Cashmere is deciding on a wallet.
People asks, Would you wear these trends?
Apparently I have a bod for sin and a head for business. Find out how you rank in this quiz that asks, Are you cheap? Here are my extended results.

Quiz: Are You Cheap? My result: Bod for sin, head for business… You have a solid understanding of finance and budgeting without being cheap. With you, it’s all a question of context. On occasion, you’re ready to pay $100 for a fine dinner in a chic restaurant with your partner, but at other times you won’t pay $40 for a sexy pair of shoes because you need to save up. You understand that how you spend your money is all about your priorities—knowing yourself, and what’s important to you. Keep up the pace, and you’ll be able to make big savings, perhaps towards an exciting future project. And continue spending whenever you feel it’s really worth it, for yourself or those you love.

Take this quiz!

Here is the beginning of my post. And here is the rest of it.
