Resources by Reviewed Feb. 25

All right, folks, the weekend is nigh and we have some things for you to do.

We'll start with Mardi Gras, which is this coming Tuesday but can and should be celebrated as soon as you're ready. Our party guide includes some advice from yours truly. And if that's not for you, you can skip right ahead to preparing for St. Patrick's Day.

Then we have a fun little home decor project for you: hunting down an affordable replica Eames chair without getting ripped off. Our shopping experts will walk you through it, and they won't tell on you if you want to tell your friends it's real.
