If you lived closer I could have a dinner party. I could manage a nice dinner for the 3 of us. [emoji39]
i'll travel for food
for real, though, i need to change my eating habits. i don't even recognize myself anymore and it's overwhelming trying to figure out where to start.

I find if I cook at home, it’s usually fairly well balanced. Getting/eating take out (easy) and having a lot of desserts are things that I need to work on eating less of.
But I live vicariously through your occasional mentions of pie!
My problem is mainly that I can’t taste a damn thing if it doesn’t have like, extra hot sauce on it or something. Most everything tastes like the inside of your mouth when you’re sick (sorry lol) to me and it’s repulsive. I order too often from the Taco Bell $1 menu because I get annoyed with feeling like I’m just chewing on pieces of my own tongue.
Like am I supposed to be able to tell the difference between chicken and pork? Because I can’t. Not entirely convinced there isn’t something called a chickpigcow that all the meat comes from.
Steak and ketchup is probably hopefully the only thing DJT and I have in common.
Ok I’m done now.
Don’t worry, even if I cut back on pies and cakes; I will still be eating more than my fair share.
My friend gave me 2 mini bundt cakes for Christmas, that I thought she probably re-gifted. The tell tale sign was that part of the writing on the tag, didn’t look like hers. I thought they wouldn’t taste very good so I didn’t eat them until a couple days ago, when I ran out of other sweets.
Well, if she did re-gift them; that’s fine. They’re delicious! So I really only talk about cutting back on desserts.
I try to stay away from Taco Bell, but admit some of the food is tasty. [emoji39]
I don’t think that not being able to identify the meats is your fault, faith.
I think they use parts of the animal that don’t really differ much in taste from one species of animal to another. So I actually agree with putting hot sauce on Taco Bell.
I am not such a big ketchup fan, but do admit to being a steak eater. Really hate to think that we have anything in common with DJT, but I think we’ll get a pass on this one.
Well, that’s about it for me too. I have another list to get through, but it’s mostly just a grocery list this time. [emoji6]
Hi everyone! I’m new to this subforum. I never own any MJ bag so I never really visit this subforum. But with the Snapshot getting so popular in my country, I’d like to know how it’s doing in the states or other countries. I’m from Indonesia btw! It’s sooo freaking popular that every celebrities or public figures here have one... Literally. All the hip girls have one too! But I’m curious about its popularity worldwide. So, tell me guys, is it also popular where you’re from?

Hi angelphilipus!
Welcome to the MJ chat thread! I am glad that MJ bags are popular in Indonesia. They used to be very popular in the US, where I live, but have waned in popularity.
There may be some lurkers on this thread (nothing wrong with this), but right now there are only 3 active participants; all living in the US. So I guess you might say that they are not so popular in the US right now.
My first designer bags were actually Gucci, Fendi and LV. Then I spotted a MJ bag at my local Neiman’s and I had to have it! Several more found their way into my closet. I have since sold most of them.
I still have a very soft spot in my heart for MJ though, and will continue to search for the one that gives me that ‘I have to have that’ feeling again! [emoji173]️
Hi Mimmy! Thanks for replying so quick
hmm so I guess it’s only in Indo then. I guess it all started when one of our very popular celebrity posted a pic wearing that Snapshot on Instagram (because usually that’s how every trends started in Indo 
). MJ has never been this popular before in my country, so this was quite surprising to me actually!So what are you having in your collection currently? Are you back to collecting premiere designer bags like the ones you first owned?

Could you post a photo of the celeb and her MJ bag, please? I think that other’s on this thread might be interested too.
I have dipped my toes into the world of Hermes; phenomenal quality at a phenomenal price. [emoji6] No B, K or C though.
I received a Chanel pouch for Christmas.
I bought a Cathy Roels bag, independent designer, from Etsy. Excellent handmade bag from Belgium, at a super reasonable price.
I still have an older MJ bag and 2 wallets from his old premier line.
I have a MbMJ wallet and 2 newer MJ bags from his newer MJ line.
My other bags are a mix of of premier and contemporary designers.
My goal is to keep my bag count at about 20.
Hopefully the other members on this thread will forgive this off topic post.

So this is one of the most popular celeb here in Indo with her daughter sporting a Snapshot bag
Sorry for the bad quality though, I found the pic from Google! But the bag is really really popular in Indo literally every girls have one now. And they’re sold at slightly ridiculous price. So the MSRP on the tag is US$295 I believe, but here the resellers on the internet sell it for at least $350-$500
so silly! Just because it’s so popular and is on high demand atm. I don’t know about the retail price at the MJ boutique though, since I haven’t been to one in years. But I guess it’d be more expensive since the gov taxes us a lot for luxury goods like this.And wow Hermes is definitely out of my reach
I like their bracelets though. I have an Hermes Kelly bracelet in black GHW now and am so tempted in buying another one or maybe a Clic Clac but idk, they cost a fortune 
Btw I’m sorry for starting such an OOT discussion. Please don’t ban me here
Oh my god another person!
I don’t have time to reply ATM and will later, but for now, welcome! @angelphilipus

I like the Snapshot bag. Yes, in the US you can find one at a good price.
I doubt you’ll be banned. I think everyone will appreciate more activity on this thread!
Where do you find friends who will (re)gift you cakes and can she be my friend, too?
I'm glad they were good and weren't originally gifted to her by someone who hated her and thus had hidden razor blades.
The only thing at TB that I like is the cheesy bean + rice burrito, and at $1 it's easy to ignore that it's probably the nutritional equivalent of play dough and is basically the texture of wet, flavored sawdust. Sometimes it tastes faintly of ham and it shouldn't.
No, not the two separately - ketchup on steak is the sin I shamefully share with DJT. There is something wrong with me.
It's nice to have you!Hi everyone! I’m new to this subforum. I never own any MJ bag so I never really visit this subforum.

I'm happy to hear Marc Jacobs is still popular somewhere. I live in San Diego, California and although I see a ton of girls with one of the numerous versions of the Natasha, it's store and online presence is basically nonexistent. A few years ago, this chat thread used to have as many posts in a day as it gets in a month now. I'm not sure what shifted; I think maybe combining the premiere Marc Jacobs collection line and the lower tiered Marc by Marc Jacobs line turned people off.
It's still my favorite label and I only own MJ bags, but I haven't purchased a current season style in years, though I like many of them. I would like to add a Snapshot bag to my collection eventually. Do you have a favorite version? There are so many choices! It's not a very practical style, but for some reason I'm partial to the black small velvet one.
