It’s been a crazy past couple days. We went to Richmond to visit Anne’s aunts last weekend, which was a lot of fun. However, we did learn that shopping in ACTUAL boutiques (i.e. not S&A or GW) is way too expensive, even if they have very hot merchandise. I need to make a pillows with sushi fabric.
Luckily our friends at ReproDepot have lots of this fabric, and I can make like 3 pillows out of a yard of fabric if I put cheapo fabric on the back. Which would make these pillows like 1/3 the cost of those in the hot boutiques (they charged like .. $15 for one dumb pillow). Except Anne and I concluded we need to invest in a sewing machine. Hint hint to anyone who wants to get me an expensive birthday gift. Haha.
Anyways.. yesterday we went bowling. It was very fun except we were out too late on a school (ok, WORK) night so we were tired today. Anne and I both did very well with 144 as our high scores (yes we got the same score in 2/3 games).
Today was also muy exciting. Grocery shopping and car cleaning are always wonderful, enriching experiences. I don’t understand why they don’t have the car washes with the swishy rags that come down. They just use power washing – and don’t even have the neato dryer thing at the end so you don’t have to dry the car off with a towel. What a rip off.
It does take a bit to get used to this southern culture.. haha.
