shopping.

today i went shopping.  i hate to admit it but i truly do love to shop.  i wish that i didn't love it.....but i do.  so today was fun.  i found a small kids consignment store in reston, va and i got cole two shirts and a jacket.  all are in great shape.  i have become a consignment store shopper almost exclusively for cole.  i have found amazing deals (many with the original tags still on) and have decided that it is crazy to buy new children's clothes unless you need something really specific.  i am amazed at what i have found and what i have got for what i paid.  today's find:

a gap jacket for the fall/winter that is waterproof and two polo shirts.  total price? $8.00

while i was driving home, i discovered a vegetable stand where i bought a bunch of beets and an eggplant to roast for dinner tonight. how cute is this little place?

and then i decided to stop by my favorite store....anthropologie.  i. love. that. store.  i shouldn't have gone...way too tempting.  i walked away with two things, a pair of pants and a little sweater....not bad considering i tried on 19 things. next on my list from this little place that i love? 

   

think of all the fabulous things that i could whip up in this apron?  this would totally make me a better cook...not to mention a cuter one :).  take note husband.  

all in all, this was a good day.
