Last Thing You Bought?

I hate phones. I don't even like my land line, and I feel that cell phones are an abomination on society.
That being said, I kind of feel like buying a smartphone so I can play with all the pretty bells and whistles (my cell phone doesn't even take pictures (sadly) almost the only thing I can do with it is call people (heavy sigh)).

I have a smart new ' smart' phone which apparently does everything from designing kitchens to navigating military aircraft and is according to my son is 'wasted' on his ageing, short sighted, short tempered mother. I have so far managed to disable the volume and and several of my important apps.

Apparently when prompted it even allows you to make telephone calls..:eek:

I was thinking of one of these next time...
 
I love my iPhone 4s...hate the power it has over me. I have an old Tom Tom and love the GPS that comes with the phone. It's way better than my TT.
 
Then it's pretty obvious that my first smartphone will be an iPhone. I get lost in my own apartment.

(Not really, but doesn't that illustrate just how clueless I am with directions?) :p

Android phones have great navigation through google maps. :) I can see a photo of my destination as well. :) I really love gps, I can't tell you how many times I got lost before they invented it for me!! :)
 
I remember how to solve the cube. I came up with a very simple method years ago. The first step is to carefully remove all the colored stickers off the cube. After that....

I bought half a veggie sub on nine grain wheat bread at Subway. I was very hungry and I enjoyed it (I mentioned the bread because I really like it). $4.25
Bought 2 bottles of water at the municipool for $1.00 a piece (I often get dehydrated while swimming but don't notice it - now I try to drink water immediately before and after swimming so it isn't an issue).
 
Went grocery shopping today and bought: d'anjou pears, nectarines, oranges, delicious apples (yellow and red), cantaloupe, strawberries, golden potatoes, baby spinach, cabbage, mixed salad greens, iceberg lettuce, green onions, broccoli, crimini mushrooms, carrots, asparagus, Annie's green goddess dressing, Sirarcha, prepared mustard, dried marjoram, dried whole red peppers, Bragg Liquid Aminos (trying to limit my salt intake, thought I'd try this instead of soy sauce), Kikkoman low sodium teriyaki sauce, chopped green peppers, low salt white corn chips, V-8 Juice Blends, apple juice, 6 Healthy Choice Country Vegetable Soup (on sale), Progresso Lentil Soup, Lipton Beefy Onion Soup mix (despite the name according to Peta it's vegan), whole wheat burger buns, cracked wheat bread, bran flakes, Zatarain’s Dirty Rice Mix, peanut butter, strawberry preserves, pear slices packed in their own juice, peach slices in light syrup, apple sauce, tator tots, green pads, sandwich bags, frozen orange juice, wheat thins, Coke Zero, Dr. Tim's dog food, and probably more items I can't remember.
 
Kale and spinach. TJs high fiber spaghetti. Two cartons of Silk creamer. Keurig k-cups for work.
 
Groceries at Lidl's. I bought 3 packs of blueberries which were on special offer.:up:

I love blueberries. I'll even buy them out of season when they're not very good because I love fresh blueberries so very, very much. If I had a big enough fridge I'd buy buckets and buckets of them and just eat a ton of them every day like they were candy. :)

I froze one of the packs, ate another one and the third one is in the fridge. Blueberries are a treat as they are very expensive.;)
 
It's kind of weird but I love the taste of blueberries but I don't like the texture/chewing them. Not sure if its a skin thing or the part of the berry that was attached to the blueberry bush. :weird:
