Since I got new plates, I figured I should get new flatware. They have mixed reviews (some people claim they rust, some say they don't) so I only got one 20 piece set. If they hold up, I'll get another 1 or 2 sets.

I def. didn't need these clothes. I'll probably take some of them back.

Detergents with citrus in them corrode stainless flatware - sometimes it's hard to find the 'regular' ones that don't have lemon in them!  As long as you stay away from the citrus variety, you should be fine ....

nice buys everyone!

I found the James Perse dress in "palm" in a 3 (the dark grey color.) I think the 3 will work just fine since the cut is loose and I don't plan on being fat for long hmm  got it for only $116 inc. shipping on ebay, vs. $155+tax shipping had I bought it elsewhere...

Thanks Elle! Do the ingredients list citric acid or something similar on the box? Right now I'm using Finish Powerball Tabs. I don't think they have anything like that, and there's now picture of a lemon on the box.

For my anxiety while I wait to go to the doctor/therapist.

For my dog, who also has (separation) anxiety.

I was thinking about these items on the Anthro site, and I went back and purchased them. The swan is a planter. I'm excited for it. nerd.gif I'm not sure about the earrings - I can't tell if they'll be cute or too quirky for me. I guess I'll see when they come. Side note: Anthro card holders get free shipping on online purchases. I'm not sure how long it will last.



MistCerealBowlS8?$linelevel$ 6 of these to match these plates MistRepImageS8?$share$

I decided I wanted the bowls to match my plates after all. These are backordered. If I actually receive them, I'll take the non-matching bowls I ordered back (I won't use them unless the backordered bowls never come).

Another three-shelf bookcase while it was still on sale. The 5-shelf one looked too tall, and this way I can set the two next to each other and have a "library" feel.


On a serious note, I don't need to do any more shopping. I'm pretty sure my shopping obsession is tied to some deeper problem in my life (prob. my unhappiness with law school) and being broke will not do anything for my happiness.

 It should say something on the front of the box, but make sure to look closely - there are so many now with lemon or orange in them that I have to go somewhere other than my normal grocery store to even find the 'regular' kind!  I accidentally bought a 'lemon' box when we first got our nice silverware - the ones that we washed before I realized it have rusty streaks, the others do not and are still fine 3 years later.

Thanks Elle! Now I know what to look for and won't ruin my pretty new flatware. smile

KOBRAA_BLACK-PATENT_small.jpg I have these in purple and they are my go-to flat so I thought it would be worth it to have them in black patent too.  For Steve Madden shoes they are very comfortable.


D- so glad you found your James Perse Dress!  It look very comfy!

Wetbandit42- Love your new flatware and dish set!

Nice necklace, D!

Never heard of Rescue Remedy. Maybe I can start taking that on a daily basis, since i seem to be a basket case when it comes to my kids. I'm a wacko.

I feel like I haven't been able to post on this thread in ages!!

I got these flip flops from payless along with a super cute pair of heels that aren't on the site (they're navy peep toes with tiny pink polka dots and a ruffle-y thing on the toe- very j. crew)

Also a tinted moisturizer and a lipstick from Sephora. And a haircut.
