I’ve had a friend in from Spain this week, and since FAO Schwartz is the biggest toy store I’ve ever seen, I figured that I had to take her so she could see it for herself. It only took about 20 minutes before they threatened to 86 me from the store. It’s just that I got so excited about all the cool toys everywhere that when I saw a humongous pile of stuffed puppies, I knew that I needed to lay down in it. Apparently the employees at FAO Schwatz thought I was disturbing the other holiday shoppers…

But speaking of holiday shopping, have you done yours yet? I bet you haven’t! Luckily for you, I’ve got the perfect thing; books and t-shirts! Hooray for books and t-shirts! Just go to the merch page and you can see all the different colored “Young, Broke, and Beautiful” t-shirts that I have for you.

And don’t forget to get Broke-Ass Stuart’s guide to living Cheaply in San Francisco for all your favorite “financially challenged” loved ones.

The cover of my motherfucking book!                                                                                                                  

Me, I’m already in the clear in terms of holiday gifts. I’m taking my girl to see the Rockettes tonight. I know it’s definitely not in the realm of broke-ass, but we all do crazy things for the ones we love.
