I love shopping in the US!

Just got back from another great little trip to the states.  I don't buy alot of SF stuff, but did buy the new crystal light mocktails - mojito, margarita, and appletini (couldn't find peach bellini).  Whipped some up with ice to make myself a frozen treat!  And love the 0% Fage greek yogurt.

Did some wonderful trying on at Dress Barn - looking for a dress for my son's backyard wedding this summer, so I was looking for something casual and summery.  Lo and behold, I think I looked pretty darn good in the things I tried on!  But the one I loved best was a half size or so too big, so I'll have to order it online.  Hopefully it'll be a little tight so I can shrink into it.  And its a style that I would never have imagined wearing - a-line skirt but fitted in the bodice.  It hugged me perfectly above the waist, but flared just enough to give me the draping I need below the waste to de-emphasize that lovely panni that's hanging out there!  I think I'll be making another trip in May - it was a real ego booster this time!  OOh, and I bought some awesome cute shoes at Sears this morning, so I'll have to make sure I find something to go with them as well!  My skin tone and hair must be changing as I try to age gracefully, b/c I seem to look better in colours that never did much for me when I was younger.

 That is awsome! glad you had fun have a happy easter and enjoy those NSV's

Hey Robin, are you available Monday for the bag of clothes I have?  PM me your phone number and we can get together or I can bring them over.

 how about monday evening meeting for a walk at the marina in the evening ??? 345-0145 i will be out most of the day on Monday but home after dinner

Sounds good!  I'll give you a call around 6.  Or if you're out and about you could always just drop by.

 ok great 

Hey Megan, I am  here in Duluth right now.  Got some great buys at Kohls and was just as surprised to try on some sz 16's and they actually fit!! Especially when over March Break when we were here I was trying on sz 20!  Awesome feeling.  even bought a cute spring knit dress in a size XL too!  good bye plus sizes!!!!!

BTW where did you buy the new Crystal lights?

I got mine at Sams - cheapest there for a 3-pack.  But I've seen them in Target and Cub Foods, and most likely Walmart will have them as well.  If you find peach bellini, could you get one for me?  Please!

Congrats Megan.  It sounds like you are doing so well.  Great shopping!

Judy

Sounds like you had fun.  Isn't it amazing when you have to special order something because everything is too BIG??

Were you in Duluth? I've never been but I'm hoping to take a little day trip there this summer. Any advice on where to stay/shop/eat would be greatly appreciated.
