Crap you buy online because you think, 'Hey, cool! I want that!'

You have too much money, I think.

Quite possibly, but I love to bake but my decorating skills are ... nil. And those frosting nozzles looked like an untalented decorator’s dream so for $25 I took the chance because, ‘Wow, cool, I want that!’ And since I don’t have to pay to live in the L.A. area felt I could afford it. In the end whatever I ‘create’ with these things I’m sure will end up in some photo montage of ‘decorator fails.’

I rarely bake, but I went to the website and was tempted to buy some. They make it look really easy to make beautiful designs. However, I wonder if it's as easy as they make it look.

My cousin showed me a picture of cupcakes she made with them and they looked amazing. She did caution that they use a lot of frosting.

Does continuing to back kickstarters and patreons for D&D stuff count? 'cause I keep doing that.....

 

I almost bought an instapot, but have held off.

 

Then there is a vitamix, I'd like one of those.

 

Two issues....I live in an apartment with a not large kitchen. I don't have much income right now....

I think it counts.

 

Make a wish list and revisit it in a couple months ... bet there will be things that drop off it.

I am this way with books, most of which I obtain electronically these days. One of my FB friends just pointed me to one from the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu; now I must have it. :)

Well, I wouldn't necessarily call those 'crap,' though. Now, if you were endlessly purchasing trash novels ... yes. ;)

don't be ripping novels...... :)

Lol ... hey, I said trash novels, not that all novels are trash, but I consider 'trash novels' a genre unto themselves and I read them all the time ... easy read escapism. ;)

Much use of colorful metaphors...

I'm into it.  I wash most things with my finger tips anyways (given the lack of precision of sponges etc.).

 

I bought a package of 3 pr ... one for each of 2 bathrooms, and a 3rd for the kitchen ... because, well, yeah ... don’t want to use bathroom gloves in the kitchen.
