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 chick peas look incredible and I really shouldn’t skip the gym today but I Probably will!

  2. Its tough to pick just one, but here’s mine:

    I really shouldn’t Hog on Pizza,
    But
    I will probably eat them anyway!

  3. LOVE anthropology! I probably shouldn’t have, but I DID cart a set of really cute glasses all the way from the anthropology store in NYC to back here to Cyprus! :) I also probably shouldn’t have eaten those last few cookies yesterday but I definitely did! :D Great post!

  4. You definitely SHOULD by those plates – they are STUNNING! I want them SO much! I love things decorated with horses, and these are really spectacular.

    Hmmm…today, I probably shouldn’t…..watch a million episodes of Big Love, but I probably will anyway!

  5. Ok, that was a really sinful post! So many GORGEOUS things all in one post? really?! Lurve that camera :-)

  6. I probably shouldn’t eat a chocolate almond chewie after going to frozen yogurt with a friend, but I will. :)

  7. I really shouldn’t go to VS tomorrow, but my sister wants to go to the mall and you remeinded me of the sale and I have a VS credit card, so I probably will. If my mom lets me out of pre-party cleaning duties for long enough. It’s my party, right?

  8. Those are some of the cutest little plates I have ever seen. They just scream ‘tea party’ & ‘dessert’ & whimsy. :B
    I love Anthropologie. It’s such an addictive place to shop at…oh my!

    I really shouldn’t make so much dessert…because we have too much food in the house already…but I did anyway…and I will probably make more tomorrow. :)

    1. I baked 3 things this week and I have plenty of stuff in the house. :) I think it’s the process I enjoy the most, and the raw dough.

  9. Having worked for Bath & Body Works (which is owned by the Limited Brand), I got employee discount at Express and Victoria Secret. All 3 stores were next to each other so come semi-annual sale, I got first dibs… It was dangerous. I really didn’t “need” any of it, but where’s the fun in buying things you “need” all the time? Like my justification? hehe .. It helps me sleep at night
    P.S. freaking adorable plates! you SHOULD definitely buy them :)

  10. I know what you mean about beans + tummy = incompatible. Man, do I KNOW! They’re just so yummy, though. :)

    I really shouldn’t… look at the animal shelter web site for available pets for adoption, real estate sites, or go to the grocery store hungry. But I do all of the above anyway.

  11. Just commenting on the disgusting-ness of many Victoria’s Secret models. I thought one of them had a deformation because of the angle shot at her ribs. Anyway, I really shouldn’t be up this late when I’m going 11 hours to Maine tomorrow but oh well :) Those plates are gorgeous btw!

  12. i really shouldn’t have gone to the anthropologie website after seeing this post! We have the same style.
    ;P

  13. I really shouldn’t let Averie encourage me to make lists of things I shouldn’t be doing
    But
    I will probably end up indulging myself on something sweet, something short on ice, and something I don’t need ‘but look how much I saved’ anyway. ;-)

  14. Ooh I love this :) I really shouldn’t be sitting around, watching TV, and blogging when I have a whole house of boxes to unpack, but I’ll probably just keep reading my fave blogs anyway. The boxes aren’t goin’ anywhere. ;-)
