Last Thing You Bought?

A digital drum set for my son!
To be honest, I will likely also be using it. When I was a kid, I learned to play the snare drum for some time in the local marching band. Unfortunately I had to stop with that, as the noise was simply not bearable to the rest of the family. I am so amazed at the digital technology that allows for low-noise practice!

Best regards,
Andy

My wife has recently taken up playing the piano, and my two sons have been playing the violin for some years now.
I learned to play the piano for some years when I was a kid, but unfortunately I have forgotten all of that by now.

It's Christmas in April and I'm so delighted with my Sainsbury's haul. Some very kind and generous Brits bought me back all these goodies.

I'm going to have some bangers for dinner. I'm planning to make a a pizza for tomorrow night's dinner with the bread
flour and Violife cheese.
 
51eUNdregZL._SX303_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg A book from Amazon co uk : I Heard The Owl Call My Name by Margaret Craven.

''According to the Kwakiutl people, if you hear an owl call your name, your death is imminent. When Margaret Craven’s novel opens, young Anglican vicar Mark Brian, newly assigned to the Kwakiutl town of Kingcome, hasn’t yet heard the owl, but he is gravely ill and doesn’t know it. His bishop, knowing that Mark is unlikely to live more than a couple of years, has assigned him to the most difficult parish in his bishopric, a group of remote Indian villages on the British Columbia coast, among a people who are also waiting for the owl’s call as their culture slowly dies.…….''

Infant onesies, burp cloths and a Target gift card to go with the blanket I knitted for my niece Renee's baby shower. I had to send it overnight because I procrastinated on the blanket a little, lol, not to mention the other presents. It will get there in time for her shower on Saturday (it's in Texas, and I couldn't afford to go :( ).

This morning at the farmer's market, I bought a bouquet of flowers, vegan pesto, white bean soup and chick*n salad, and a lovely loaf of bread. :)
I'm coming to your house for dinner! :D

Last thing(s) I bought:
Gift card and greeting cards for my nephew, another nephew's girlfriend, my dad and my mom. Lots of May birthdays in my family, lol. My nephew's girlfriend graduated from nursing school over the weekend. This kid has been on her own since age 17 and is such an inspiration. She has been so good for my nephew. I love that kid! We are all very proud of her. She will make a fabulous nurse.

I also bought my dad some DVDs of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood movies.
