today I bought a zillion litres of pop and juice and the like for the littlies and teetotlers. And some wine. not much. Got a redneck image to maintain here..... And some chips and stuff.

A Clark North American Jungle Hammock, with tree straps and an extra large rain fly.

(I didn't actually buy it today - I ordered it on the 18th, but I got a note that it might be delivered by next Monday.)

Bigger than this guy?

Today I did buy some Pimms-alike.
Do you guys have Pimms? It's an alcoholic drink that is never drunk straight (well, not by normal people!) but is a summer institution when served with lemonade, fruit and mint.

Normal bottles go for about £15 I think. This knock-off was £4.99.
I figure once it's diluted, iced up, stuffed with strawberries, orange and mint (no cucumber, I hate the cucumber) no-one will know the difference.

It's part of my Sunday Summer Menu. So they'll be too tipsy to notice if the pork comes out dry!

Also bought some sunflowers for Mum. They were local - always a good thing - and will look lovely on the table tomorrow.

We have Pimms down here. Perilous stuff when mixed, goes down like fruity iced tea or something, then really sneaks up on you when you try to stand up.

Oh aye - only thng more perilous is strawberry beer (Fruili, sold on tap in various Greenwich establishments) which goes down like a cheap whore but sneaks up on you like a mugger.

Sounds like you need to work on strategies to stunt his growth. He could take up smoking.

I bought ankle socks, and two Beatles themed journals (Abbey Road and Yellow Submarine).

I had intended to get a car charger for my cell phone and a new laptop. I did not get either.

However, because they just remodeled my EvilEmpire store, I had a $5 welcome back gift card, so the socks were free.

Foam swords, booze & a Score candybar, I'm addicted to those mofos, The little one is sound asleep, (we got foam swords today), I'm working on the booze.

I just came back from a junk food run. I don't do that very often and I only meant to get milk, tortilla chips and gum! I swear!



I bought corn Doritos for homemade salsa.
Balsamic and sweet onion potato chips. To go with tuna sandwiches, I tell myself.
Pillsbury mini brownies ( chocolate and vanilla is a great combination so I get.....
Slow churned vanilla ice cream with half the fat, mind you. ;)
Black forest gummy worms,because I am a gummy worm /bear freak.
2 gallons of fat free milk
2 liter bottle of Squirt. I have been craving it.
3 pack of Orbit peppermint gum. Special request.

gas. and ceramic classes for two.

I bought a beach club sub from Jersey Mike's for lunch. Mmmm.

A bunch of classroom supplies and turf shoes for Lil' Griff.

I can't believe we bought the whole thing !

We went looking... and came back broke (again)
