When I say macaron, I mean this….not that. Though I am sooo totally open to exploring that in a different post. But I would like to being shoving this in my face until then…

I make no claims to being anything but a casual baker, but I think that I need to make this happen for myself. Maybe this weekend. Maybe Sunday. I’ll post the ‘research results’ for you to openly mock. I will buy the ice cream because..well, I don’t even want to try to scratch some ice cream. I do have a life you know, a boring one…but I like it.
I AM A SANDAL CHEAP SKATE.* I am unwilling to pay more than $20 for a pair of sandals. As result, I proudly wear a lot of these beauties. The few schmancier pairs that I own I certainly didn’t pay more than $40 for…
My brain simply will not justify the exhorbanent cost of so little materials and (comparitively) less skill for construction when it applies to sandals…but luckily the CWS is not ruled by my pocketbook!
Delman “Nifty’ Sandal
I want to wear these silver dreams with a everything from dark denim to a floral mini dress. I can’t think of anything I wouldn’t wear them with…well, maybe

I like the unique twist and weave going on here, flattering and serving to spread the possible strap discomfort over a larger surface of your foot alleviating those rubbed raw areas I’ve come to expect with most sandals. Also, they’re on SALE! Go! Hurry!
Worthington Sara Strappy Flat Sandal
Under $20 as promised! It’s good to know that JCP is still alive and kicking with some fantastic deals!
Roberto Caovilla Flat Strass Sandal
Rent is a new idea I’m playing with…basically, any item that has a price tag above the amount that I pay for rent every month ($900) but is worthy of inclusion, or ridiculous, gets a highlight. I was going to call it YFKM (You’re F’ing Kidding Me) but opted for a more work appropriate title. So, for the 1%ers out there rejoice, I care about your shopping habits too!…and please send money, mama has some student loan debt she’d like to vanquish. >>–$$$–> **
* When I say sandal I mean THIS, not THAT. In Covette conversation THAT is called a high heeled sandal/strappy sandal and is mentally categorized into the ‘heel’ family, whereas THIS is grouped with the ‘flat’ family. I should constuct some sort of Covette specific phylogenetic tree for shoes…but not now, maybe later..
**It’s an arrow piercing dollar signs, representing my mountain of student loans. Die you evil, evil burden.
Learning new things is soooo much fun, well..not really, but I try to keep it interesting.
Interrobang
This is an interrobang. If you already know what this is…you must be an english major out and proud punctuation nerd.
For the rest of us, the ‘bang’ (slang for interrobang) is the beautiful love child of ! and ? thought up by an ad man in the swinging 60’s. He thought it would look better if copywriters could convey a suprised rhetorical question with a single punctuation mark…like,
You did what to Steve’s weasel‽
How many body pillows does a woman really need‽
What did you think the would happen using that thing in a bathtub‽
Feel free to share your favorite interrobang sentence suggestions in the comments. No, really…I have nothing to do at work and I could use the afternoon entertainment…Get ‘bang’in folks!
