Easter Blurbs

So I got reading glasses and a mammogram this weekend... for @#$! sakes... Whatcha gonna do but embrace it??? Mr. B however did say that I look hotttt in my new specs. And I'm just gonna go with that. Anyhoo.... I decided that some retail therapy was in order. And since I just got paid that means I'M RICH!!! ...that is until 'the man' comes and gives it all away to those rich f*ckers at the bank... But on to less irritating topics: I actually enjoyed grocery shopping today. Going to my fav ghetto grocery store on the wrong side of town on a Thursday morning has its benefits. I had the whole place to myself. Not a MILF wannabe in sight... or their irritating kids for that matter. FYI: I am making an Asian slaw and a spinach artichoke dip to take for my contribution to the Easter family meal. Sounds fab, huh?!?

Also I bought lil brother some new duds cause he was looking like a raggedy orphan lately. He got a tshirt with some hard core looking penguins on it and some new kick @ss tennis shoes since he's been cutting me some slack lately and not kicking my @ss with his usual tricks. I also bought him my FAV childhood book of ALL TIME: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'engle. He and I are gonna read it together at the beach this summer. Can't wait...!!!

However my 'funnest' purchases were from the thrift/junk store: 3 antique tins in a beautiful bright red color palette (for my kitchen!) and a black santa claus. He is sooooo adorable! He reminds me of our Uncle Joe who is the BEST UNCLE EVER. My boys are gonna love it. Makes me smile just thinking 'bout it.

Hope y'all have a happy and blessed Easter!
