An Instant Pot UGH INTERNET STOP MAKING ME WANT THIS I DO NOT NEED IT
A: Oh man, I've always loved those crab ash trays! I have been mostly very good and did not buy:
These Madewell jeans that I think might be my perfect spring jeans:
This Tatcha moisturizer of which I had a deluxe sample and accidentally dropped it, lid off, in a sink full of soapy water:
It's really good stuff. I'm still mourning it's loss.
THE JANUARY ALLURE BOX THAT HAD A FULL-SIZED SUNDAY RILEY SERUM. This was an accident! I fully intended on buying it. My card has expired and they didn't bother to tell me and now it's sold out. WOE.
Things I did buy (sort of? Does it count if I used Poshmark credits from things I sold?):
This little MJ crossbody that looks brand new. She had it listed for $15 and I talked her down to $13 because i'm a total asshole:
Um, a pair of Madewell boots STOP YELLING. (Poshmark!)
M: HAHAHAAHA YOU AND BOOTS!
A: SHUT UP. It was that pair of Madewell chelsea boots I've wanted all winter that sold out immediately. Related: I am really bad at No-Buys.
M: Also, I bought these jeans BEFORE the No-Buy, for super cheap on sale, and they are my perfect spring jeans. Well, they will be when I lose the 10 pounds keeping me from buttoning them.
A: Those jeans! They are great, seriously. Boooo sold out.
M: They are great jeans, but 100% cotton and NOT FORGIVING. I got my usual Pilcro size and can't button them. But I'm 5 pounds closer to them fitting.
A: You’ll get there! The thighs in my favorite Fidelity jeans are starting to go. Austerity measures are in effect.
A: I don't need an Instant Pot, right? I mean, I feel you. People keep making me want it and I have a PERFECTLY GOOD SLOW COOKER.
M: BE STRONG WITH ME.
A: I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT IT DOES.
M: It’s just a pressure cooker. So it makes crockpot type foods in like 20 minutes. But I don’t even like crockpot type foods that much.
A: I certainly don't love crockpot type food enough to need a faster version. Not tempted.
Until next week!
A good local tailor can do a nearly indistinguishable thigh repair on jeans! I've had thighs repaired on many pairs of jeans for under $20. They patch it with some sort of denim blue patch, then zig zag stitch it so it matches the weave of your jeans. I obviously have too much experience with this sort of repair!
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you! I am definitely going to go that route because I love that pair of jeans. The fabric is still holding but it's a ticking time bomb.
DeleteOh Marianne, you absolutely need an Instant Pot. I hardly ever cook, and I've already gotten my money's worth. And I actually cook more often now, it's just that great.
ReplyDeleteYou do not need an Instant Pot. I bought one last month and returned it without even taking it out of the box after looking at Instant Pot recipes online. I cook, but not like that.
ReplyDeleteI see you've discovered the thrill of shopping with your Poshmark balance!
ReplyDeleteI HAD to have an Instant Pot. I got the fancy one.
ReplyDeleteI’ve had it a year and I’ve yet to use it.
Save your money. (Or buy yourself a pretty dress!)
