Re: What I Bought Today

I decided to be good to my feet so I went to the local sporting goods
store to look for new shoes. They no longer carry shoes. Then I went
to Copelands where this young girl had no idea about fitting shoes but I
did buy three pairs of short Thorlos. I gave in and went to the NB
store carrying one of the shoes I wear. The SA was great. He new
immediately that the shoe style was fine but I just needed a slightly
wider width. Magic! They fit so well but I will wear them for short
periods for the next few days to make sure they are perfect.

will be happy.
Williams Sonoma was my next stop. I wanted to get my daughter and my
neighbor's daughter
http://tinyurl.com/gmwqp an Alligator for chopping onions and peppers.
This is an amazing tool for $18 that WS is replacing with a higher
priced product that has a bowl attached. The alligator cuts your onion
slices into perfect little pieces and the same goes for other
vegetables. If you didn't take gourmet chef chopping 101 it is an
amazing tool. I also bought the daughter a yellow and blue rose apron
on sale and then some items for the boy.

Shoe sales and Williams Sonoma are my 2 great shopping weaknesses. I'm
hitting WS this weekend to pick up the alligator and scope out the
sales. Thanks for posting this!
