Ahhhh Shopping

I toyed with having today being my "Betty Draper" day, but decided that Olivia's plea for deodorant was more pressing.  So I think tomorrow is the day...get ready for drunken blogs and tweets.

Over the past week something happened to my laundry sorting station downstairs.  The cloth portion ripped and the plastic frame just can't take the weight of our clothes.  So off I went this morning to find a replacement.  I found what I was looking for...no more plastic...just metal and cloth.  But as I walked around looking for my laundry item, I started to fill the cart with all kinds of things. 

I remembered that we could use a new shower curtain liner...check.  I heard today on Canada AM that February is a good month to buy sheets as they tend to go on sale (who knew).  Turns out Canada AM was full of shit, but I started looking at bedding.  I had a new bed skirt, duvet cover, and extra pillow cases in hand.  I kept looking at bedding and then thought that I didn't love the colours and put everything back.

I picked up some measuring cups, garlic press, a fancy hand mixer and Tassimo Chai Latte.  I had to keep looking...

Then I saw the nicest garbage can ever!  I loved it.  It would fit in my little kitchen perfectly.  It has a larger bin for garbage than we have now and a compartment for recycling.  If you've been to my house you know that I just have reusable bag on the floor in that we toss recycables in.  Hugo loves taking all pop bottles, milk jugs, and juice bottles out of the recycling to play with (tear apart).  It isn't pretty.  So I was pretty excited about this awesome garbage can.  It was $200.

So I fired a BBM to my husband asking for his thoughts...the garbage can is still in the store (sigh).  I bet Betty Draper has an awesome garbage can...
