    I shop like a man then. Take the red lines, scramble and double them... that was my daughter at Walmart today. I think mixing is going to require a second cup of tea for me to get there. Child flat wore me out lol.
    That describes my daughter so well.

    How did we produce frenetic shoppers :lol:??? Two of my 3 are girly girls. I’ve definitely always been a tomboy.
    My youngest girl shops like that but she's no part of a girly girl. Oldest girl is pure girly girl.

    Good luck with that, hitt:)

    Just my luck, Bath and Bodywork was having a sale on candles. That place was insane! The couple in front of us had 12 candles. There were two check out lines and they almost went 2/3 of the way to the front door.

    They have the same sale online with no lines.

    Get the lead out Lazy Bones!

    I just started in on my tweaked Strawberry Biscuit this morning. It's a month old and I noticed the cheesecake has simmered down a bit. Liking it! I still think I need to lower the wick on the biscuit and cereal though. I only have 0.5% biscuit and 0.6% cereal so I'm surprised they still have as strong a presence as I'm getting. I'm not a huge cakey person (I include those two in that broad category...grain-based stuff). Like them a lot but only in a very minor role. I might cut back some more on them next time. Still enjoying it as is though. I'm still not sure how much I like cheescake either. I'm trying another recipe with custard and no cheesecake so I'll see how that plays out.
    I was pretty lazy all day. Just watching football and basketball with the boy. He left with friends just now. My son said the strawberry biscuit smelled great. So I managed to make 200 ml of it, dry burned and rewicked a coil, did some shopping and laundry. I love cheesecake...one of my favs. I can definitely taste the biscuit in the strawberry biscuit, but that’s one of the flavors I crave with the brighter strawberry on top.

    I could have warned you not to go if I knew that was your destination. Daughters besties were at the one by us. Said the line was out the door. One held a place in checkout, the other fetched. The much anticipated annual candle sale, and apparently online sold out before dawn. Daughter gave a spirited description while we were in Walmart. There is nothing on earth I want bad enough to stand in that crowd.

    My friend dragged me to the mall a few years ago for the bath and body works sale. Never again. And all those scents make me sneeze. I can’t use any of it. It was wall to wall people and here I am sneezing my head off.

    My wife is a tried and true bargain shopper. She bought one candle for my daughter at 9.50, a hand sanitizer for 1.50 and had a coupon good for one free item up to 13.50 for spending ten. She also gave the couple in front of us a coupon for $15 off of their purchase. They spent enough to use it. We didn’t.

    Daughter was complaining because they’ve always been $8 each at this sale , $9.50 on BF, and the bigger coupon they used to have expired yesterday. All I took from this is, I’m probably getting a candle for Christmas, which I should extra appreciate because it wasn’t as cheap as prior years. Every year the 3 girls put all their candles all in one basket to get the bigger discount. Then lunch to divvy them up and calculate who owes what. Boggles my mind that candle shopping is a half day ordeal lol!
    I may still mix later ... I lit the fire and put my laundry in, and enjoyed my tea from the recliner. Night is early though!

    I was looking at some of the stixx mix recipes. Some good ideas there.
    I was looking at the gremlin stixx mixx sale. Just have no clue what to buy. I need to take some time and look at descriptions on the stixx mixx site as gremlin has nothing.

    I grew up with two older brothers so I have a tomboy side to me big time, but I can still be a lady because my Mom worked on me. But I think, work, and shop like a man.
    I did it all on my own, no brothers,just 3 much older half-sisters. I did have my own set of tools though.
