I really shouldn’t…

Buy these dishes from Anthropologie

dishes from Anthropologie

But how cute are they?

 

Spend time on the B & H Photo website or any photography or camera gear website

Canon cameraI could drop thousands on photography stuff from lenses to camera bodies in no time flat.  The Tsunami in Japan has effected the worldwide supply of many lenses and camera bodies with very indefinite ETA’s for them being re-stocked.   That just feeds my buying desires.

 

I really shouldn’t eat too many of these Caramelized Cinnamon Sugar Roasted Chickpea “Peanuts”

They are so good.  But beans + my stomach = a very low threshold of compatibility.  But they taste so good going down!

 

Go into Victoria’s Secret right now.

Their semi annual sale just started and buying lingerie and comfy clothes that I didn’t even know I needed, sounds fun.  You know that feeling of just because it’s “on sale”, all of a sudden I feel this urge that I “need it”.  You all know that feeling.  The outlet mall shopping phenomenon: You never wanted it til you saw it and it was marked down. From bras to roasting pans, anything marked down just makes me happy.

I really shouldn’t make cream cheese frosting just to eat.

But I might.

Adding a brownie along with a bowl of frosting is entirely optional.

From my last post with the Caramelized Ginger & Olive Oil Roasted Beets, I am glad you liked the recipe and that maybe you’re feeling inspired to try beets now.  Yes, you really should.

  1. Those dishes are so beautiful! And I feel you on the frosting account… It is just so darn tasty! I probably shouldn’t go to the farmers market for fruit more than once a week, but I will probably meander down and check it out, almost every day. SHAME!

  2. Bahaha I LOVE this post, Averie – and you should do ALL of that…speaking of VS, I need some dang push up bras for these little itty bitty titties. Excuse my inappropriateness but it’s true – their bras are the ONLY one’s that gimme the boost I need :)

    Pass the chickpeas, please ;)

    Love you!

    1. aww, you are the best and I saw Gabriela show you some love on her site today and I agree with everything she wrote about you :)

  3. I really shouldn’t be online right now because I have so much hw to do, but I will probably find some other way to procrastinate anyway :)

    Doesn’t anthropologie have the cutest kitchenware?? I want it alllllll!

  4. That cream cheese frosting looks dangerous… I really shouldn’t spend the night watching SYTYCD and eating chocolate chips from the bag, but I probably will anyway – and enjoy it!

  5. I really shouldn’t be stressed about a potential job phone call I have to make on Monday, but I probably will stress!!

  6. Oh yes, I already took advantage of the semi-annual sale at VS :D

    I really shouldn’t be nervous about the upcoming dance competition, but I probably will fret over it anyway.

  7. I really shouldn’t be so nervous about my new job, but I will probably cry anyway. On a happier note: I really shouldn’t go to another farmer’s market tomorrow, but I will probably buy another metric ton of greens anyway. :)

  8. I’m the same way with chickpeas! I can literally eat a whole can for a snack. So yummy!

  9. I really shouldn’t have a bowl of ice cream after eating 4 slices of homemade bread already tonight, but I probably will anyway as I watch LOST on Netflix :)

    Buy the plates! super cute!

  10. Those plates are SO cute. Even just for decoration on their own…they have great stuff there. I really shouldn’t be looking at used DSLRs because I’m a full time law student living 100% on student loans…but I am anyways… :P

  11. Yes, the tsunami is having a serious impact on getting camera gear in stock! Nikon is not in good shape and I’m lucky I could get my new camera when I did :X Not good for the shop, either. Big bummer. (…which sounds selfish, because us not being able to stock Nikon is minor compared to what residents over there are going through.)
    sales…yep. i have to remind myself that I don’t need something JUST because it’s on sale or JUST because i have a coupon!

  12. I probably shouldn’t skip out on school work to drive to the mall tomorrow since you reminded me of the VS sale…but I plan on it anyway!

  13. haha what a fun post! I probably shouldn’t go out to a bar with friends for the 3rd time already this week, when I have to waitress a double tomorrow morning. But…. your only young once, so I will anyways haha!

  14. I really shouldn’t be sitting here watching those crazy Orange County Housewives. But I will probably leave it on while I clean the kitchen and start dinner… ;)

    1. I love the HWs and OC are my faves. No shame in proclaiming that loud and proud :)

  15. I think I need those chickpeas…. Let’s see, I should not lay out in the sun tomorrow, but I know I will (with my overloaded spf to make me feel better LOL).
