Some Happenings

We went swimming.Our family.

My sister and niece came over the night before for a fun sleepover. We watched Nancy Drew, ate popcorn and ice cream, and painted our toenails.

FYI

***BUYER BEWARE***

I love these chip clip things. "What's the difference?" you may ask. Well, the boring looking clips on the right are from Pampered Chef. That's were I first got them. And I like them a lot. For some reason I thought that they were the only company that made them. Then one day, as I was walking through Ikea I saw the clips on the left. They're beautiful-just look at those colors! And I thought, "GEE, THESE LOOK JUST LIKE THE CLIPS I HAVE!" So I bought them. When I got home I pulled out my Pampered Chef clips and looked inside them and the Ikea clips and WHOA they are made by the same company in Sweden!

"So what's so cool about that?" you may now be thinking. Well, the pampered chef clips come in a package of 10 for $5.50, while the beautiful, brightly colored, funner to look at clips come in a package of 30 for only $2.99! I have even seen them for sale at Storables in a little package of like 3 or 5 for around $3.00. How do they rate? So now you know.
