    That brown polka-dot dress from Target was posted a few pages back, I believe. I tried it on and it looked like a table cloth on me. No matter how cute it looks on the hanger or on a model, I will not be adding this one to my collection!

    Where is the Spring????

    It was beautiful Monday and Tuesday - high 70's and sunshine, then today came rolling around with it's 30¬? temps and freaking snow. What a shock to the system that was! All the poor little daffodils and tulips that have started to bloom will be in for a rough night!

    The way I see it, using a sniping service is no different than staying logged into eBay keeping a watchful eye on the auction...It's just less nerve-wracking I think!

    There are no indications on eBay's site that say sniping is prohibited. In fact, eBay encourages you to snipe your auctions, whether you used the old fashioned method of waiting to bid at the last minute or using a sniping service. So, Snipe away, ladies! ;)

    Show us your EASTER Bonnet!

    Oh boy. I am a sight to behold during services from Thursday - Sunday. Even as a kid I remember getting very emotional about the whole thing. Midnight Mass is gets me too. And I'm not attractive when I cry. Lots of snorting and gasping and other weird noises I'm not sure even have names...
