I thought it was just SOOO funny. My husband just shook his head and said "And you weren't even wearing your blond wig." I was telling some people about it after Bible Study last night, and one guy said "Umm, that might not be a story you want to tell everyone." But I think it's hilarious. And, yes, I'm going to keep them BOTH.

True Story
I've wanted a footed cake stand for a long time. I'm really NOT a shopper, but yesterday I went along to an outlet mall with a friend for a girls' day out. At the Gourmet Chef store I spotted this cake stand that I thought would go oh so nicely with our Fiesta dishes. So after an appropriate amount of oohing and aahing and "Oh, I shouldn'ts" I bought it (since it was 50% off.)
A few hours later, same mall, different store, I saw a matching chip and dip bowl. Now WHAT are the chances of that?! So, after a little more oohing and aahing, and since this was also 50% off, I decided to just go hog wild and buy it too! Isn't it cute?
When I FINALLY got home (it was a marathon day) I pulled out my purchases to show the family. Hmm. I set the chip/dip tray upside down on the counter cuz that's the way it came out of the box, and guess what I discovered? Heh heh. Upside down it was EXACTLY the same as the footed cake stand. Whaddya know? THEN I noticed this sticker.

Oh, Eleanor! That's an adorable story! Too funny!
Don't worry, I've had blonde moments at times myself! Maybe it's a good thing that we don't live too close to one another.... can't you just imagine the crazy things we'd do?
Have a great day and thanks for sharing this! I laughed out loud!
Oh, that is just too funny!
I think it is good and healthy to tell on ourselves - that way we can laugh, too!
Enjoy your cake and chips and dip!
Hey Eleanor, we have a saying here in the South when people do stuff look like this: "Well, bless your little heart!"
That had me laughing right out loud! Sounds like something I would do!
ROFL Too funny!
That's hilarious. I wouldn't have noticed either.
That sounds like something I would do. Now you either can have cake and chips and dip at the same party... or give one away!
