Tomorrow is Eric's birthday and his parents are coming to visit us today so I'm looking forward to the celebrations. I'm making a German chocolate cake for Eric (his fave) from a Food Network recipe so I'll let ya know how that works out. I also have muffins and cookies to bake so I'd better get off my butt and into the kitchen!
We had a huge snow storm yesterday and the base closed early because of it, so what did we do with our free time? I dragged Eric to 5 stores! There were hardly any people in the stores because all of the sane people stayed home. It was an adventure. I put off all my bargain shopping until the end of the week so I missed out a few deals but it's no biggie. I've scored on so many deals lately that I don't mind missing some. I spent the beginning of the week cleaning and organizing and just didn't quite feel like shopping, too. But now everything is done so I'm off to the kitchen to see if I can bake a cake. I fare pretty well in the kitchen but baking isn't exactly my forte so we'll see.
I went on the "everyone else is pregnant" kick around Dec/Jan last year. I think it's just the time of year when more people get out to shop and stuff so it's more noticeable. Don't worry, it passed fairly quickly and by spring I had plenty more to focus on. :)
ReplyDeleteMy problem now is that I'm too busy with baby stuff or too tired to go out and do any coupon shopping and now my stockpiles are depleted. I actually bought paper towels and cat food at full price! Hopefully I can get back into it some more soon...
Full price??? Lol, you have a great excuse, though. My dream was funny because I was lecturing my mom about all the pregnancy facts I've learned in this whole journey!
