Hey You Guys!

(name that movie)

An avid quilter and crafty soul, my mom made Gigi a present. Its a fleece pillow, stuffed with scraps of quilting fabric. Gigi is in love! Its bumpy, lumpy and comfy, the three qualities Gigi looks for in something to snuggle on.
On Friday, I finally got around to using the wonderful $3 coupon at Staples. It was valid until Saturday and I wish I'd started using it earlier in the week, but I was feeling pretty awful (still am). It was $3 off your purchase and if you bought a $3 item, you didn't pay any tax. I got a bunch of bubble mailers (should hold me over until the next 3 for $1 sale at WAG), a dry erase board ($3), cute magnets ($3), painters tape ($3), perky Command hooks ($3), LED lights that stick to the wall - thinking I could use these in a closet ($3) and a clearanced set of 2 dry erase boards for $0.50. My sister went with me on one of my trips and found some pretty fabulous Duct tape in a hot pink/black spatter print. I love those $1/$2/$3 bins at Staples - they have such fun stuff!
First trip in a while that doesn't involve Rite Aid!

Goonies has been on tv all weekend (remember that movie?). Ahh, the truffle shuffle, I have such fond memories. Whenever I hear that Cyndi Lauper song (Good Enough I think?) I always picture the boys speeding away on their bikes and the older brother stuck on that little girl's bike trying to catch up. It was totally on my mind when I did my Walgreens shopping because I picked up a Baby Ruth bar. Too bad neither of us likes Baby Ruth! Guess that'll be an early father's day present for my dad, he loves 'em. :)
