Last Thing You Bought?

[Poppy]

Last night I bought vegan smoked salmon. Yep. And it's pretty good! I ate it this morning with half a pumpernickel bagel, daiya cream cheese and capers.

I bought a few things as we have been so frugal for ages that it is getting ridiculous, lol. All our money seems to be going to the vet at the moment so we thought we would buy a few things for us!

A new rebounder, concert tickets, some music memorabilia, a computer game, a picture frame and a scented candle.

Concert tickets is a good investment. What are you going to see?

You bought a basketball player?

It's an English band called The Mission.

And a recently acquired (one of Mom's casino give-aways) Field Chef 4-quart rectangular covered casserole dish. There was an oval one, too (that's going in the CTAM auction at the conference this weekend), but I've never had a rectangular baking dish before that wasn't a loaf pan. LOL

Oh, and I got more nooch!!

I ordered the new album from Giraffe Tongue Orchestra, which features William DuVall from Alice In Chains (love, love, love him) and members of Dillinger Escape Plan, Mars Volta and Mastodon, I believe. I've heard two singles, and they rock. Definitely has the Mars Volta vibe. I also bought a ticket to their show in November in Boston.

This may be the next thing I buy-Aldi has this in its ad for the week of 9-28, for $39.99
6 quart! It's electric!. My pressure cooker is a pita, and I'd love the versatility, as well as a removable insert. It's probably aluminum, but it seems the research now says cooking in it isn't that bad? I don't pressure cook anything much acid

Well, Family Video's 10 for $10 sale yesterday was a total bust. I got there & some greedy b*tch quickly gleaning from the table, holding an enormous stack of DVDs up to her chin. Yeah, thanks lady.

So after picking up Jerry, the last stop was 7-11... while he was getting his snacks & beverages, I went rooting through the DVDs & bought a couple collections. One, sadly titled The Meg Ryan Collection... I really don't feel one way or another about Meg Ryan... I just turned around when Jerry said, "Hey, Joe vs. the Volcano!!" That's one of his seldom-seen faves, which I've never seen because I heard it was supposed to be awful. LOL I'm not a fan of chick-flicks, so You've Got Mail will probably remain in the case. The Women, I'm not sure... simply because I was in a theatrical production of it many years ago. But I recall Innerspace being a real kick from way back.

Also nabbed a 2-disc/3-movie Jim Carrey collection, primarily for Man on the Moon (thought he was great as Andy Kaufman). I used to have (still do) Bruce Almighty on VHS... watched it last night... some very fun moments, especially with Steve Carrell, as well as my favorite line, "Back to you, f*ckers!"

LIAR LIAR is just a bit.... much.

Black garlic.

I had had this in my Amazon shopping cart forever. It just arrived. I needed some vitamins right away, and since I have Amazon Prime, I knew I could get free one-day shipping with a minimum $35 order of eligible items. So I bought this book and a multi-set of potholders along with the vitamins. I would have preferred to get the book in a digital format, but unfortunately, according to multiple reviewers, the digital version doesn't include many of the illustrations and graphs found in the physical book.

Interestingly enough, I love Liar, Liar and enjoy Bruce Almighty. Man on the Moon I didn't care for at all.

With regards to the other four movies, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Innerspace. You've Got Mail is okay, if a bit dated. I haven't seen the other two.

It rained overnight, so it was a little cloudy and humid, but the skies are clearing, and it should turn out to be a pretty nice day. High of 75 degrees predicted.

Yumm! I've got several dressings for different dishes. And maybe i'm crazy, but i've got 6 packs of my favourite tagliatelle, as they were on a huge discount, and i'm so happy about it. They will go nicely with my pomegranate dressing and cider vinegar. And i couldn't help buying beer. Ooops, guilty... I'm so tired after work and my stupid little boss, that i probably could drink something stronger

Yay for pasta & beer, I say!! LMAO

I bought some more dog food and then crisps, wine and soft drinks from the shop.

That's nice, but what did you buy?

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Have yet to buy, as I'm hitting the store en route to Jerry's house.... so, hopefully another package of rosemary-olive oil flatbreads & plenty of beer.

Hahahaha, I just realized I posted this in the wrong thread. I would love to buy great weather that would last all year.

Update on the Aldi Ambiano pressure cooker--I bought it and will be returning it! Couldn't find what the inside pot was made of anyway but in the instructions. It's non-stick. That was a deal breaker.
