Last Thing You Bought?

Baj water. Does anyone ever drink these? They are expensive but I drink them for an occasional treat, maybe once a week. I love the coconut flavors.

I bought a new set of king-sized bed covers and a Christmas cherry blossom tree with LED lights. The tree is arriving on Wednesday so I might put up my other Christmas tree and my other fairy lights at the same time.:angel:

Bit early, I know.:p

My yogurt maker arrived in the mail yesterday! :starshower:Its' not a fancy one, just the basics. It's a Euro Cuisine electric yogurt maker with the seven small glass jars in it. I have only ever tried homemade soy yogurt, but now i want to play around with soy free yogurt. I am going to start with a mix of coconut/cashew milk yogurt and see how that goes. eventually I want to try to crack the code for making a pea based yogurt like Daiya's. :)

I am going to LOVE this instapot! <3
I threw in a 1/2 cup barley, almost a whole cut up cabbage, four big carrots, two cups orchette (sp) pasta, garlic and 6 cups water with no chicken base. The default soup setting was 30 minutes, which I kept, and it was really too long! I think 20 would work fine. The cabbage cooked down a lot, the barley and paste very well done. Added frozen peas. Really really good! I figure I'll season each bowl differently. I made a bowl for lunch tomorrow with a splash balsamic vinegar and chili paste.
It's completely quiet! One thing to watch is the steam release. I bet you can really lessen the time if you shut it off and don't release the valve

I finally used a Whole Foods gift card I got last Christmas (better late than never. Thanks, Mom and Dad):
2 boxes of vital wheat gluten
Nutritional yeast flakes
Vegan chocolate espresso tarts (4 to a package. They are bite-size)
2 packages of vegan semisweet chocolate chips
Organic breadcrumbs
365 organic almond butter, on sale :)

I was only $1.82 over the gift card amount. Good shopping on my part. :D

I also went to Trader Joe's and bought green olives, almond milk and chocolate-covered almonds rolled in sea salt.

From Michael's:
4 skeins of acrylic yarn with a metallic sparkle throughout. It will make a pretty hat and scarf (I got 2 black and 2 gray)
A soft plush toy kitty for my great-niece Olivia, who turns 1 on Christmas Eve.

After obsessing about my new coat I went back to Pennys to check out the other one I tried. I actually went for the one I bought for the color (aubergine), but now that I've worn it, I find the collar sticks up and pokes me in the chin! So many coats are made that way! So, I bought the other one, and I'm very very happy now!
It's comfortable, and snaps just right, with a fake fur collar to catch snowflakes too!
I'll return the other one tomorrow.
