Let's play...the Price is Right!

And speaking of all things wonderfully TJ...

Two Questions:

1). How much is this celestial bag?

2). Did I buy it?

Post your guesses to both questions and tune in next time for the Price is Right!

I love how you've been decluttering then making up for it by shopping :o)

$24.99 (TJ has such great prices)

No, you did not buy it.

OK, so my borrowed digital camera failed to capture the glory of the fine-grained Italian leather.

Keep guessing.

Oh, now I get it. It's Italian leather. No wonder you're in love. No wonder it's a scandal. 125 bucks and that's why you haven't bought it yet. YET.

If it's at one of the TJs, then I guess I'd better lower my guess to $49.99--a bargain but still cost-prohibitive.

If it's less than $30, then why not give in to temptation? There's always lay-away.

(I just read an article in the New Era today--a quiz to help you sort out your friends. I think I just proved that I am not the sort of friend you need to hang around with. Oops.)

14.99!!


I love TJs. I always find something amazing whenever I go. Last year they had a campaign slogan: You Should Go! I totally worked on me. Everytime I saw those commercials I always thought, "I should go!"

Ok, I understand now. This handbag is 199.00 and that is why you haven't purchased it yet.

(1)Does it matter how much it is? And (2) if you didn't buy it, you must do so now!

Regularly $275.00 and TJMaxx price $149.99. You did NOT buy it, as of Monday, May 15, 2006 at 2:30pm.

What do I win, Bob?

You did win. And I love that you went in to see it in person, because it is so much better in person.

I'm thinking about your prize.

I would give you a king-size headboard if I had one...

...when you realize your children and your clothes are about the same age...

With so much discussion about turning 30 and so many (too many to link) of you having babies and such, it has drawn in sharp relief the inescapable fact that I am biologically old enough to have given birth to the whole lot of you. OK, well most of you anyway (the exceptions shall remain nameless, of course). In any case, I usually try to avoid acting my age, but the effort has become futile of late. So today I'm coming out: I'm 44 and I think I'm having a midlife crisis. The good thing about this is that if you do the math, having a midlife crisis at 44 means you've still got a long way to keep going, baby. Granted you all have entire decades ahead of you before you have to worry about this, but I still feel it's my duty to prepare you for what lies ahead, Forewarned is forearmed. Or something like that. Here's a short guide to the upsides and the downsides of middle age: Downsides first: Midlife crises are a sexist phenomenon. Cases in point: Harrison Ford...

Does that come with the soup of the day?

Tomato Basil soup in Helsinki, Finland I just got my umpteenth chain e-mail. This one is a recipe exchange. Been there. Done that. But I've got a better idea. How about a recipe chain post? Here's how I hope it will work. I will post a most delicious soup recipe. Then each of you will contribute your favorite soup recipe as a comment. I'm thinking that if weren't for the fact that it's almost the weekend (we all know everyone goes back to their real lives on weekends) we could potentially have a month's worth of meals if everyone plays along. How? Well, if we get at least 15 recipes and each batch of soup makes enough for two meals, you can eat half one night and freeze the rest. And that could take care of all the cooking required for the rest of the month of January. Cool! Any players? I'll start. White Bean Chili this is a kid friendly soup--even my kids who won't eat beans love this soup 4 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded (methods vary for getti...

NOT! Just yesterday as my nostrils were defrosting from the arctic (no--it's actually colder here than in some places in the arctic right now) air I sent up a little prayer of thanks for things such as central heating, Milguard double insulated windows, shoes and socks, black leather gloves, cozy quilts, but especially that central heating. At precisely 3:20 a.m. I was awakened from my toasty slumber by Z~. "Mom, the power is out." Normally I'm not so worried by such an announcement, but when it's below zero outside that kind of news alarms me. I round up all the candles I can find. First order of business is to shed some light on the subject. I never go anywhere without my trusty reminder of my all-time basketball hero, Larry Bird Next we call the power company. I love calling the power company because even though our instructions during a power outage are expressly spelled out that we are to call them and inform them of the outage they always reply, "Duh,...
