Men like cars, women like clothes. Women only like cars because they can take them to the clothes.

Makes perfect sense to me. And living where I do, the last thing you want to do is hop a bus to go shopping.

My Mother-In-Law once said that a woman simply couldn’t own too many watches and my daughter seems to be following in her footsteps. Before we leave Florida, I think that she is going to own at least one new one. The one I picked out for you caught my eye this morning. It’s elegant while being carefree at the same time.

In department stores, so much kitchen equipment is bought indiscriminately by people who just come in for men’s underwear.
Julia Child
But have you seen how interesting the kitchen department has become?? There is a gadget to do just about anything. I can almost guarantee that I will go home with something from that department… can’t say that about men’s underwear. To be honest, can’t even remember the last time I went browsing.

Shopping is a woman thing. It’s a contact sport like football. Women enjoy the scrimmage, the noisy crowds, the danger of being trampled to death, and the ecstasy of the purchase.

The only really good place to buy lumber is at a store where the lumber has already been cut and attached together in the form of furniture, finished and put inside boxes.”

Here is a little quote that I found in our newspaper this morning…
“I haven’t even been shopping in L.A apart from getting a few things for the house,” Victoria Beckham
The writer added his comments… a colander, a rug, two candlesticks and a lie detector lol…
Yeah, I’m having a hard time with that one too.
And more on the Beckhams…

“Being a woman is hard work.”
Maya Angelou
Especially when it comes to shopping. Just got home from Florida and was blown away by the prices down there. Spent way more than I should have and that’s where the quote comes into play. It was just soooo hard to choose what to buy and what to leave behind. I didn’t even make it out of the airport without buying something. And my husband… If it wasn’t a necessity, he was more than happy to leave it behind. Now where’s the fun in that?? And yes, I do have more shoes …read more

My idea of heaven is a great big baked potato and someone to share it with!
Oprah Winfrey
I can understand that, comfort food big time… but I wonder what her shopping practices are like?? Something tells me that she REALLY likes to hit the mall. And I hear that there are some amazing ones in Chicago! More about that later!

I haven’t turned into some rich monster. I’ve kept my perspective. But I am a bit spoiled. It’s hard not to be a little spoiled by having a lot of money.
Christine McVie
Wouldn’t know, but I wouldn’t mind finding out.

“I’m like any other woman; a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear. So I just wear jeans.”
Cameron Diaz
I just found a line of pants that actually fit me, so I bought every color. I think that I’m set until summer arrives. Finding the perfect fit rarely happens. At least with me.
Is anyone a perfect 10, 12, 14 or whatever??

A friend that you have to buy won’t be worth what
you pay for him, no matter what that may be.
