I want Sweet Potato Fries


Well I really like the sweet potato fries at Iron hill and I didn't go there tonight since I opted for a movie but I still want those fries. I will get them eventually. Iron Hill is a brewery but like many breweries it has pretty good food. There are lots of items on their menu that I want to eat. I don't like food that is too spicy though, so the ribs just aren't for me. one of my favorite things is going there with Danielle because they have really nice children's food, including chicken strips with a vegetable side. Danielle loves eating cucumbers and sweet potato fries, and it's nice to have a place that will give you vegetables for your one year old instead of just macaroni and cheese. Although macaroni and cheese is available. Also good- their homemade root beer. John tells me it is like the root beer his family made at their family vacations and I am telling you, it is a sad thing that I never got to go to that reunion vacation. too bad the restaurant is closed and the baby is in bed.
total cost $8.50

Black Shoes


I really want some black slip on shoes but I want one's that my sister in law Kathryn has and I just can't find the exact thing I want. Something that i can slip on fast for when I want to leave- it just seems like I have all black pants but no black shoes. I found a Josef Seibel pair on Zappos that I like. Also for something fun there is a pair of Keds shoes there I don't think the Ked's ones would go with as much as the others but they are so darn cute. I just want to buy them so bad but I am trying not to spend any money this week. It seems if I can't stop spending money my family will start to fall apart, which is sad. I always want more and more shoes.
Keen shoes are also really great and I used to have a pair of black slides from them but I just wore them so much that they wore out. I would love to have a pair of leather slides or mules or flats or sandals that I can wear on a regular basis, when my red shoes just don't match. like with my fantastic green or pink shirts. Every time I see their shoes I find myself drawn to the colors and cute options rather than the black ones. Like the Berkeley sandal. I like a black soled shoe with a lighter color inside rather than black. I feel like a black inner part of the shoe gets on your feet and eventually isn't as good looking. At least with the Keen shoes. Anyway here are my new shoes. I wish they were mine.

Money Mondays - Here comes the compulsion...


So, I was searching the web on the Crate and Barrel site because obviously it's important, and found something I really want. I want two of them, in fact. The Allison pillow. It's so great I MUST HAVE IT! Seriously, I am really fighting strong urges to purchase this. Alas, not having money also helps me resist. You just must click on the link to see it. It cheers me. But that's what having a compulsion does I guess.
