For my upcoming birthday, Pax gave me a "Buy Me That" Moment at the street fair we happened upon in Durango the other day. I had been oohing and aahing over the assorted baubles at the Forest Lampworking booth, and I finally decided on this beautiful pendant:
And then Pax also bought me a tomato plant. I've always found store-bought tomatoes disappointing, and the salmonella outbreak has me determined to grow my own. So, how long does it take for a tomato to grow from this point?
Here is the result of my most recent "buy me that" moment.
I believe every female is entitled to the occasional bmtm. It doesn't matter if she is perfectly capable of taking the item to the cashier and plunking down the cash (or modern equivalent) herself.There are certain pretty shiny objects that require the woman to point and issue the command "Buy me that." (And it is utterly irrelevant that her money and the buyer's money come from exactly the same place.)
This particular bmtm occured in Santa Fe's Overland store Saturday night. Really, when you think of the potential for financial ruin that an Overland bmtm poses, I believe I exercised admirable restraint.
