Anyone up for a Far East "field trip"?

Well, not really a "field trip" field trip. I know I have told a lot of you girls about letting you know when I go Chinese grocery shopping that we'd go together. Well, next week I will be going to the best Asian market ever. It's in Carrollton close to the LDS Employment Center. It's quite a hike, but I'm telling you - well worth the drive. I go there about twice a month or so. Their produce department makes me weep of joy everytime I go there. They have a food court that serves the best Korean and Japanese food. I go there, eat lunch and then get the groceries. (And whoever said that you do not over-buy groceries when your stomach is full, I got one word for you: LIAR!) There's also a houseware department that carries the coolest kitchen gadgets, utensils and dishes - straight from Korea. I got a rice dispenser that holds 50lbs of rice. Love that thing!! My kids are always fighting over who's going to help me measure the rice every meal.

So if you are interested, please email me (carriefung@yahoo.com) no later than Tuesday evening and let me know you're in. I plan on going Thursday morning around 10am. Rain or shine. Alone or in a pack. Wednesday afternoon I'll send an email to all adventurous explorers about the plan for our field trip.

Please feel free to invite anyone you think would like to come along. The more the merrier!

Anyone know someone who knows how to make dresses?

I want to get to matching dresses made for Andi & the baby. (Somthing simple) Willing to pay out of the nose to get them made kind of quickly, like done in about three weeks. Nothing like waiting til' the last minute huh? :) Thanks!

Morgan and Milo Mishap

Hi Ladies!

At one of my favorite online haunts, I purchased a to-die-for pair of Morgan and Milo mary janes on clearance. Enamored by their cuteness, I totally misjudged the size and ended up with a girl's size four which is waaaaaaaaay too big for my kiddo. They are non-returnable, so I can't send them back. Does anyone have a daughter that needs a brand spanking new pair of savage back-to-school kicks? If you do and want to give me, say, ten or so bucks -- they're yours. :) (See the link below for a picture.) They are red with white polka dots and pink trim, and have a bit of a wedge heel to them. Ubercute, and listed on Ebay right now for $44. (Original retail price was $58.00)

Girls Ballet or Tap Shoes?

Maiya is going to dance camp next week and the hand-me-down ballet shoes we have don't fit her.

They also recommend tap shoes if we have them (which I don't)

I'm not keen to rush out and by a pair of each for one week if I can avoid it - so if anyone can lend me either I'd appreciate it!

ballet shoes or tap shoes size 10 or 11

I can pick up and return!!!

thanks,

Janie

Want It? I Have It!

I am cleaning house and have a few items that need a new home.

Bassinet by Kolcraft (@Babies-R-Us)

Purchased in Sept. 2009 and was only used for 2 months. It is in perfect condition. Paid $100 for it and am asking only $50.



Cherry Blossom Swing by Graco. Purchased in Oct. of 2007 (@Babies-R-Us). Rarely used with either of my two girls. Asking $45 for it. Have all the parts, add ons, etc.



Thanks! I will work a deal if interested in buying both items!
