I don't EAT peas!

[scene] E has requested K make dinner so he can be at the firehouse for a drill by 6:30, K RARELY makes dinner but when she does, E never complains because 1 - its usually delicious and 2 - its a meal that he didn't have to make.

E arrives home at 5:45, meatloaf is in the oven. Frozen bag of peas and mushrooms is waiting to defrost.

E: So what do you have for sides? I've got to go in like, 10 minutes.

K: There's peas and mushrooms in the freezer, they only take 5 minutes.

E: But I don't eat peas.

K: MAKE YOUR OWN DINNER THEN!




**OK it went like that, except for the last line... I said something more like, gee couldn't you have phrased that a little better? maybe, "I don't really like peas, is there something else?"

I made it all better by treating myself to an anthropologie shopping spree...
pic namepic namepic namepic name
$58 to $19.95 to $14.95      * $118 to $29.95 to $22.45      $148 to $79.95 to $59.95    * $78 to $39.95 to $29.95

from $78 to $39.95 to $29.95

AND one more shirt (cant find picture... OR original price) from $29.95 to $22.45
AND one more sun dress (no pic again, or price, but SO CUTE with flower patches as the pockets!) from $29.95 to $22.45
So, because I'm a "numbers" person and love to see money saved:
full price purchases would have totaled: $580 (I'm assuming the last shirt and dress would have been at least $50 originally...)
AFTER sale and additional 25% off??!?!?
$195 at the cash register.
DON'T YOU JUST LUUUURVE A BARGAIN?


P.S. I may or may not have puffed up, arched my back, and pictured in the dressing room what they all would look like with/would they fit a bump...

  2. I definitely wouldn't have been as nice as you. :P

    Cute clothes! I've definitely been guilty of trying to figure out what clothes would look like with a bump. (No lie...once I even stuffed my purse up a dress to get a better idea. Yes, I am THAT pathetic.)

    I hope you get to start rocking a bump soon!
