Your latest purchases, cont.

[nureintier]

I ordered a gift box of chocolates and stuff for my mom because I had a $15 off coupon, won't be delivered until close to christmas. That's the extent of my xmas shopping this year, I got her that and a gift card to Joann Fabrics.

Snowed in again today (I work from home so that's not a big problem) so I haven't left the house once again. Still need to shovel the sidewalks some more, so I can go to the store tomorrow though.

A bottle of rum, a gallon of vanilla eggnog, and an even larger bottle of margaritas.

Several books and a bag of cat food.

Not books *about* cat food?

Nope, no cat food books. Not even cat books. Scripture and religion, including a series on Jewish topics -- The Jewish Approach to God, Jewish Holidays, Jewish Rituals and Kabbalah -- each subtitled A Brief Introduction for Christians. Sorry you asked?

A bunch of candy-bars only available in the US -and at this small kiosk near where a friend lives.

I'm curious what kind of US candy you like so much. I tend to gravitate towards European candy, because I prefer dark chocolate to milk chocolate.

Mostly things with peanut butter in it

But, weirdly, I also like the white Lion bar.

Peanut butter is heavenly. But I've never heard of Lion bars.

Some quick dinner for tonight.

Apparently they are european

Ah, Nestles. Like the dark chocolate Aero bars that a Canadian friend introduced me to. Yum.

 

[trekkiedane]

^Don't know those, but the Lion is a bit like Twix, only with better caramel and added 'crunch'...

I used to get the mint ones at a candy store until I moved, and now I can't find them around here at all anymore. =(

 

[Tora Ziyal]

I expected to love the mint ones, but I didn't.

 

[cooleddie74]

We are in the time of year where mint and dark chocolate love to co-mingle. I wouldn't mind some chocolate mints right about now.

 

[nureintier]

I liked the mint ones, and I usually only like plain dark chocolate. Can't find any of the flavors in town here though. I pretty much like anything with mint in it, though.

Gas and a newspaper.

 

[cooleddie74]

Some last-minute Thanksgiving groceries before (and if) any snow falls.

 

[Tora Ziyal]

I just paid the deposit on my trip next spring and preordered Season 4 of Downton Abbey.

 

[cooleddie74]

A few last-second things I needed to put in the fridge before Thanksgiving tomorrow.

 

[bbailey861]

Mexican chorizo sausage.

 

[nureintier]

I ordered several more dog toys for my dogs for christmas. They're spoiled, but also it's that I've bought one of everything in the stores around here and they ruin them all. It's a dachshund thing, destroying stuff.

 

[Enterprise is Great]

Total Recall the Mind-Bending Edition blu-ray

Alien Anthology blu-ray - 2 really good movies, a piece of shit one and a half decent one for 30 bucks -- not bad

 

[rhubarbodendron]

lots of chocolates - I live right on top of a sweets shop: bad for the waistline, good for morale, though

 

[PlainSimpleJoel]

The Wolverine on blu-ray, which I watched tonight. Now sleep.

 

[bbailey861]

A couple more 1930's John Wayne movies on DVD.
