I used to love cauliflower until once in Arabia I got sick on some. DH won't eat it.

Oh that’s too bad. Maybe it was just a bad bunch you had that one time? Don’t penalize all of them :lol:. I know what you mean though — I got really severe tummy ache a couple of years ago (almost missed a concert a few days later). To this date, I don’t know what caused it — I had an egg that day but I couldn’t eliminate eggs for the rest of my life. But I stopped eating a couple of things from that day — Target frozen fudge bars and T Joe frozen fish sticks

Maybe the fish sticks had defrosted and refrozen?

I know it was more risky eating fresh vegetables over there. Once I was cutting up broccoli to serve with dip when the little leaves started moving! The whole thing was covered with little green bugs! I don't eat broccoli anymore either.
 
Hi everyone, so i have to say I am having a proud moment, a couple of months I "liked" a beautiful suede hobo bandit the price was $325 canadian in poshmark...but never jumped on it, as i have mentioned i have twin toddlers and I also live in an area where it starts snowing end of October and well this year we had some snow until April and suede is hard to maintain for me, but it's gorgeous, behold the posher sent me an offer yesterday of $202 cad and $9.99 shipping , I am not gonna lie, it kind of attracted me, like beez to honey hahaah XD and I started doing research but I stay strong offer expired 20 min ago and I didn't buy it!! I am so proud of myself as stupid as it sounds... i have had a super rough couple of days in my personal life and that sometimes sparks some shopping behavior , puff long post to say about the shopping haahah, now getting ready for work :)
Ps. Its getting colder at night and darkens earlier in my area, feels like we didn't even have a summer...awe 2020 is a year for the history books

Way to go on resisting temptation! I have a digital scrapbook where I save items I like, almost a dream/vision board, if you will. It's always a lot of fun to go back and look at things I really liked the look of 5 years ago. I was just looking at it, and it had a Longchamp Penelope tote that I so wanted when it debuted in 2016. Flash forward to today, and I'd practically forgotten about it. :smile:

Thank you, i feel good i resisted, what caught me was the big size, lol, what do you if you keep going back to an item in your board? Do you eventually get it?

It was 108F here today.

Way to go resisting that nice offer :). Really good job — it’s hard to resist (especially when you need some retail therapy, been there done that :lol:). Sorry to hear you had some bad days recently—hoping things for you will look up soon :). You are right — suede bags are not too practical for your weather situation. So all in all, you did good :). It helps to resist the next thing since you resisted this one — it’s like training a muscle to resist (sounds silly but true).
 
Thank you, i feel good i resisted, what caught me was the big size, lol, what do you if you keep going back to an item in your board? Do you eventually get it?
Sometimes I do get them, as I put the retail & sale price on the board too.
I should say I also put photos of vacations, cash, etc. on it, too.
To help curb the temptation to buy, however, I have also created a Closet Inventory & Outfit presentation document, where I create dozens of combinations.

IMO, handbags and shoes are wearable art, but art nonetheless--beautiful to the eye. So the dream boards satisfy the desire to look at a beautiful thing without actually owning it. I recommend it! When the urge is still strong, I just stop visiting TPF and stop looking at things that break down my resolve. Full stop.
