I have way to many receipts in my purse. I need to file them or burn them.

Receipts I take a picture of them and have a files on my computer for long term ones.

My when we moved a 18 months ago, my husband broke.a gear to my 20 year old kitchenaid mixer. My BFF pointed out to me I am using more processed stuff and not making my own stuff. I have the sheet pasta attachment, meat grinder and a few more. I have been hating to cook. Today after realizing he didn’t have the strength to fix it. I went online and saw the Christmas refurbs were in I wanted a shade of blue. I ended up with ice blue. I showed my daughter the color I got and she said she hasn’t been baking because of her wrists and general weakness. She is excited she is going to make cakes. I am going to make pasta, ravioli, and I love baking bread. Oh and pizza crust.

I don’t like red, orange yellow they agitate me when I am stressed.

BTW my traveling Jean purse is from Walmart. I am thinking of getting rid of all my purses except the dooney, Jean and Alexander McQueen.

Does anyone watch the great British baking show. We just watched a season…lol.

I have two Dooney cross bodies, A hobo and a satchel. I have had the hobo for several years and it still looks like new.

Inside:

Wallet

Keys

Lip balm

Pain relievers & personal meds

Mask

Hand sanitizer

Tic Tacs

Pen

Earbuds

I've never seen the Great British Baking show.

DragnHeart I watched a video of sugar glider's bark and noises. Wow! They are noisy and their bark is interesting. My hat is off to you! I saw that they require a lot of attention and exercise.

For those of you that have coach purses or any other high-end fabric, what do you use to clean them? I have googled many articles and they say to use dawn and a toothbrush.... that didn't work out too well.

I have never seen the great British baking show either, but I have watched Top Chef and Hell's Kitchen. I have always wondered what beef wellington tastes like and if it would be too difficult for me make myself.

Yes sugar gliders are a noisy bunch. The bark is cute though.

Ours have solid wheels for exercise and ropes and branches to climb. The ONLY problem is them fighting over the wheels. We have two in there now and another 4 available when they go back to their large enclosure. I camt fit anymore wheels in the current cage.

I can't watch Hells kitchen. Garden Ramsey scares me lol

Courageous, does the Coach website have cleaning instructions?

I don't have any fabric bags so I'm no help.

I need some new shows to watch.

Coach website says to take it to them or use water and a toothbrush and that it will take aloooong time to clean. I'm very impatient. I did buy Michael Kors leather cleaner for my leather purse but the fabric, like sofa material, has me stumped.

I say treat yourself to a new one.

When I ate meat I had beef Wellington. You could make it if you bought puff pastry used a mini chopper to make the mushroom mixture and followed GordonRamsey’s recipe. I cook two different meals a night one for my dinner and her food issues and one for the other people eating. I make myself mini meals. Like bone broth, or garbanzo bean faux tuna.

I love top chef, after my botched surgery which limits my food type. I got obsessed with cooking shows. Hells Kitchen freaks me as well. However Next Level Chef, Gordon’s new show he wasn’t running around screaming callling people names. He lost it once when one of the chefs created a fire.

I say treat yourself to a new one.

zebra25 I like your thinking

Pricklepatch does beef Wellington taste good?

Gordon Ramsey had calmed down a bit on Hell’s Kitchen. He doesn’t call them names and yell as much. He is nice on master chef and master chef jr.

I haven't watched Top Chef in ages! I didn't know it was still on!

I watch British Baking Show all the time- it's my go to for laundry folding. Such a positive show, watching the contestants helping each other and crying when someone has to leave. Really showcases the best in humanity.

Anyway, purses- I've looked at your suggestions and there's a lot of good options out there! Thanks everyone! I'm looking forward to getting a smaller one so it will encourage me to downsize the amount of garbage I carry on a regular basis:

-4 kinds of chapstick- one for each of my family members
-nail clippers, file, 2 hand lotions (small ones)
-hand sanitizer, 3-4 masks
-excedrin, tylenol
-lipstick, mascara, eyeshadow (single color) and cream blush (often run out the door before being able to put my face on!)
-pens, data sticks, coupons, various bills/paper
-HUGE WALLET - cards, gift cards, insurance cards, change, rarely cash
-keys to both cars and house

Basically my whole life is in there. I'm one of those last minute getting out the door types and don't want to have to futz around looking for things or thinking, "Crap! I forgot the XYZ!"

Apparently my life weighs about 10lbs For this reason, I'm looking for a cross body bag.

Why do some people make louder chewing sounds than others.

And why has this bothered me forever.

At the time I enjoyed beef and it did taste good. My stomach rejects meats, it is a medical thing. I also got a vegetarian Wellington, but do not remember it.

I am ready to make bread when my new mixer gets here. I was thinking to make a rye. Also get a mixture of semolina and wheat flour for pizza dough. I was thinking of making a sourdough starter.

I am also thinking about hummingbird cake. I am hungry I need to stop this.

I am watching survivor Australia blood vs water. I like it a lot better then what American survivor has devolved into. I am thinking of not even watching Jeff.

Tall girl, I think some people have some issues with breathing. The size of the bites. How they were taught. My husband is a noisy eater, I have upon occasion told him this.

I cannot stand loud chewers!

Saturdays are our family dinner and a movie night. We have finger foods. Lots of veggies. My DS was eating green beans. He didn't take a bite then chew with his mouth closed. Noooooo he had to bite bite bite bite all the way down the bean as loud as he friggin could. Told him if he kept eating that way I was going to shove thr bean up his nose...

Seriously anyone who eats as loud as a pig, AND I have house pigs so I know, needs to go hang outside with the rest of the hogs! Grrrr

Why is it always wine? Mom is stressed go get wine? Why WINE???

Why not gin and tonic, bourbon, a shot of whiskey, rum and coke, Baileys, B52's?

I hate wine!!! Wine will NEVER calm me down. Never....

DH, I used to work with a lady who chewed so loudly at her desk that our department stopped keeping food at our desks to snack on & only did potlucks when she was away.

Pudding, even. How in the world can you eat pudding so loudly?

Anybody else dealing with high winds? It is pouring rain and windy with 40-60 mph wind gusts.

The dogs said absolutely not when I tried to take them out to potty.

Praying the power stays on.

Wr had 80-100km winds yesterday and throughout the night. Thought we would lose power but we didnt.

It did blow over the small shelter I built for the snowblower but not the kids bus shelter at the end of the driveway.

Wind here sucks. Of course the moment I set up a wind mill for electricity it won't be windy anymore.
