Nice boots!
My DS had zebra print gumboots from the girls' section last year (when he was 5).  I was really pleased that he didn't like the skulls etc that were on offer for the boys. 
DD has hand-me-down Lightning McQueen gumboots.  ;D

Bought myself an apron from here 
 ;D

Also bought a black top and 2 tunics today (one merino, one not but still warm and snuggly).

Very nice Gert.

Lovely aprons Jo.

Today I bought new linen for the guest room and our bedroom. Guest room from Adairs and our room from Pillow Talk.
Still have to get a throw and bedside lamps and sheets for the guest room and a few cushions for our bedroom. Trying to keep the accessories to a minimum in our bedroom as DH gets a little overwhelmed.

It looks very grand Gert. I hope the cockroaches don't break through the barriers to the 'glue' stuff.  :'(

Nice Deedub :)
Great idea to get a kids tv with built-in DVD!

ALDI had some good things today (I'm trying to resist the Indian servingware) but I did get a "Tortilla warmer" ... I think everyone needs one ;) I've been looking for a particular pancake warmer ever since seeing one on Nigella Express... this tortilla warmer is the closest I've found

That is hilarious! That's the EXACT reason I bought the tortilla warmer too. The episode for the pancake thing was when she made them for her daughter with the blueberry sauce if I'm not mistaken!

I'm very excited to have joined a food coop in Toowoomba after being directed there via Quirky Jo. Can't wait to be doing some orders for some stuff which I usually couldn't afford.

Yes,  that's the episode Brumington.  Great minds think alike :) ... I do love Nigella... I found the details of the original green pancake warmer (would you believe it was in the FAQ of her website we mustn't be the only ones who liked the idea),  only to find they don't make them anymore :( I guess the good thing about this one is that it can have multiple uses :)
