| Disneyland55 Tue 9/16/2008 10:06a | ^ I was wondering the same thing.
And, thanks for making me feel normal, guys! I too have lots of old shirts that I don't wear but can't part with. Some of them I do wear but shouldn't any more... I finally stopped wearing my rocket rods shirt; it is falling apart! I must preserve the precious precious memories! :) |

DH keeps his old triathlon clothes, football cleats, and college textbooks. *sigh* I married a smart jock who is extremely sentimental. We have carted that stuff around on dozens of moves...
I have a jar re-sealer that we've used exactly...never.
And I'm right there with dlfan8 on the brain thing...I must use like .0000000000000000001% of mine. :( |

| LadyKluck Tue 9/16/2008 11:14a | Oh fabric markers - that reminds me, I have COOKIE markers. NO really!! They don't work worth a darn either! It's food coloring in marker form and all they do when you try to write on a cookie is bleed out - it's really bad! |

Really that much - I would have never guessed...

| FerretAfros Tue 9/16/2008 11:38a | Hmm...I might have to look into making a quilt out of shirts. I am actually making a quilt right now (first one ever, yay for a really helpful little book), but I'm doing it all by hand, so it's taking (to put it lightly) forever. I started it in the middle of May, and it looks like I have at least another month or two before I'll be done (but I did have to take about a month off, since I was getting into the actual quilting phase of it when I was in a very hot area with no AC). If I can learn how to use a sewing machine (or a handy stitch!), I could probably make one a lot faster (but it would be tough quilting the middle of it with a handy stitch).
As for cookie markers, we got them last year when we were making Christmas cookies, and they worked really well! The problem was that nobody wanted to eat them, because it looked like we had taken Sharpies and colored on the cookies. They tasted fine though...(Try coloring on top of the frosting, that seemed to work a little better too!) |

| Ursula Tue 9/16/2008 11:42a | Okay, you all need to sell your stuff!
Seriously. I did a quick look through my closet and put up 11 items on eBay last week that I never use, never look at, or forgot I had. I made $193.58 and only seven of the items sold. Can you imagine how much I could make if I tried? I started with really low bids, too, just to get rid of things.
That's $193 MORE money to spend at WDW this trip... that's one extra table service meal. I'm going to put up more this weekend, too! |

RMM! I want one of those, mostly because I trashed one of my best kitchen knives carving my pumpkin last year :(
I am determined not to do the same again, so am intending to purchase just something very similar to this :)
I have so many things it's ridiculous..
I have an electric citrus juicer someone bought me, never been out of the box more than once, it was quicker to use the old fashioned glass juicer (go figure ;D)
Oh and the porcelain and silver plated flan dish someone bought us as an engagement present, I mean seriously, who in their right mind would think that
a, I would make flan
b, I would be looking to serve it in a porcelain and silver plated flan dish.
People are weird I tell ya ;D
I really need to do the same as Ursula, I have some really nice things that people bought us for wedding gifts 7 years ago, that haven't ever made it out of the box...
