My current weaknesses are Amazon and the T2 shop.  With all the insomnia I've had lately I'm chewing through books at a great rate and drinking herbal teas (and a few normal ones) like they are going out of fashion.  Luckily I get an email every day telling me what books are currently free so I'm discovering a few new authors.  I don't go near ebay any more unless there is something in particular that I am looking for.....it is tooooooo tempting to spend money.

Snap stacelee. Love my amazon and the freebie books. Every once and a while I have to buy a good one though.

Another oilskin tote











And a little something for Master 10 on a good mid year report

Good on you Maddy. I love the books and the tote. I'm a bit to big for the bear. :'(

I wish they did break that easily ;(.  Unfortunately they are really tough and don't even seem to chip. At least I can hide them in the pantry.

Maddy, why are you freaking out at being served by an ex boy friend?
It must have been a while ago now.

Very nice purchases by the way Maddy.

How does the steam convection microwave work? I have heard of them but haven't seen one. My microwave is a convention microwave.
