Well not exactly. I was out and about yesterday doing some last minute shopping for my 18 year old daughter (they are so hard to buy for) and had a little time to kill between shopping and my nail appointment so me and my little guy decided to go into the Salvation Army. I am so blessed that my son loves to mill around the thrift shops with me. I found a couple of cute sweaters (it is amazing what people donate to thrift stores, these beauties were brand new). On our way out the door, I noticed these dainty silver creamer and sugar and cute little teapot and had to do an about-face for them. Total cost $6.00 for all three pieces, I couldn't resist.
I know I should only be spending money on my loved ones this time of year but sometimes it feels so good to do a little something for yourself. 
To finish off my day today, I made this sweet little bundt cake and as you can see it is a little "caved in" because my son could not wait for it to fully cool off before I took it out of the pan so I had to hide it with frosting & powdered sugar. He didn't complain about the taste of the cake at all.
Have a lovely day,
Debbie

Your cake looks delicious...I don't blame your son for not wanting to wait for it to cool.
My youngest daughter is 13 and she is my junk store buddy. I'm so glad my three daughters are also my best friends and don't mind hanging out with me.
Have a great Christmas!

Anyone in their right mind would have gone back for such a great find--and you can always consider it an early gift from Santa!

Mmmm the cake looks really good! I love the little tea set!!!
Teenage girls are really hard to shop for. My daughter writes out very detailed Christmas lists for me. One year she even did a Powerpoint presentation and had links to the items on the internet. It sort of takes away the surprise element though.
Debbie ~ isn't it so much fun when you come across a great find like that !
I haven't seen your apartment and I just had so much fun getting to see what you have done and how sweetly it is decorated ~
It seems like God has given you the Peace that passes all understanding ..
I am constantly in awe of His grace and love for us ~
