Chump

This is a picture of the new sundress I bought.  As I was buying it, I was full of self-congratulations for getting it on sale, and proud of my will-power for not buying six more sundresses because they were all -- apparently -- 'on sale'.  However, then I made a big mistake:
I listened to 'What Not To Wear' (see previous entry, 'Does This Show Make My Butt Look Big?') and determined that I needed to get the dress tailored so my bra straps didn't show.  Stacy and Clinton, the show's stylists, always make this slight alteration sound easy and cheap, claiming it's a $5 fix.  And they weren't lying . . . they just failed to mention that it's five dollars per strap to bring the dress up, plus five dollars per side to bring the dress in.  So my $20 dress is now a $40 dress.

Please tell me it looks fabulous.

When Will I Be THAT Cool?

olive and cream cheese penguins (with a cheese ball igloo, of course) OK, if you thought I was bad, may I just point out that I've never had any desire to make the above concoction for a party.  Can you imagine how long I would be in the kitchen, obsessively cutting olives in half and stuffing them with cream cheese, in order to have enough penguins for 50 people to have a bite?  No thank you! But, in case you want the recipe, I found one here .
But Wait, There's More! . . .
