Do you have a guilty pleasure?

[big brown horse]

Why do all of you think BOOKs are a guilty pleasure? Books are a pleasure!! Or is it the purchase of new books when you should be on a budget.

AND POPTARTS!!! Shameful!!

I used to spend alot of money on new paperbacks and such.(magazines,hard cover books) Its really the only splurge for myself...but I was spending quite a chunk. But then I happened upon a paperback swap/shop where they give you credit for what books you bring in and you use it toward the used books you buy that are already 1/2 half or even less. So now for $20 I am set for the month! (I read at least 2 books a week, I dont watch TV much) I used to spend up to $100 plus... And I handle my books with lots of love, hehe..I throw them in my backpack,on my front porch table..you get the picture.
So I never got them from the library.... I am rough with books.
Gee! Now I am craving a Blueberry Poptart!

That little rascal, now he has us craving POPTARTS! I didn't know they made Blurberry!


ETA, I typed "blurberry" and I think it is funny, so I am going to leave it ther.

Dark chocolate, especially 5-lb bags of Ghirardelli choc chips Good food, great garden seeds, quality shoes (especially summer sandals) and MEN magazine (I try not to get magazines, just look at them at the library).

Plus, I start hobbies that take up-front money but really try to make them pay--chickens, turkeys, meat birds, bees, basketry, CSA gardening, etc.

I always have Ghirardelli chips in my fridge, tucked away where no one knows they're there but me.....

More like an addiction, but liquid flavored coffee creamer for my coffee. I have been trying to get it out of my diet for a couple years and keep coming back to it. I know it's full of bad stuff, but I love it. I have cut back quite a bit.

I used to love the powdered stuff <yikes> then I saw the episode of Myth Busters where they ignited large amounts of it and created an enormous fire ball. I figured that might be why my gut felt so lousy all the time and I was able to go cold turkey!

My farm critters-they cost way more than it would cost just to buy meat and eggs and milk from the stores. When i see one for sale and I like it and have the money and have room for it I have to get it. I literally cannot stop myself. I'll be thinking that we don't need it, have too much already, and it will cost that much more to feed as I am handing over the last of my money. Fortunately, I do have limits, if I don't have room for it or the time for it I won't get it. That is the only way I can stop myself, and since we have moved to such a small area, I am really going through withdrawls, especially since I had to sell almost everything to come here. It's the same way with plants in the spring, I try not to get too many, but I just can't help it! I think it's an addiction.
