I meant to post this yesterday, but our internet was down.
yakgirl sent me this coupon, which is for 30% off at the Gap, Old Navy, and/or Banana Republic (in store only). When you use the coupon, 5% of what you spent is given to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Unfortunately, the coupon expires today. Hopefully some of you can put this to good use.
In other news, yesterday I went to see a local production of The Nutcracker. It was good! I didn't know what to expect considering it's an amateur troupe, but it was quite good. And it was also sweet to see all the little kids in the audience getting excited for the different dances in act two. When the Russian dance began, one little girl started jumping up and down with her fists in the air. It was cute. That said, I'm glad I wasn't sitting behind her. ;)
After that I went over to
fava_bean's parents' house. She was out in the burbs, so we hung out and she made gluten-free brownies and these great Paula Deen peanut butter cookies (they have no butter! Whaaaa?). We watched Up, and then she made pumpkin polenta with veggies and mozerella for dinner. Yum. Her dad has a new job selling baby-care products, and showed me this weird and awesome product called the Tummy Tub. He even got out the promotional video because I was laughing at this so hard. (I thought it had an agitator like a clothes washer, and that idea KILLED ME.) So we're watching the video, and at one point I was like "That baby just farted in the tub!" And lo and behold, it did, because they started talking about how the Tummy Tub relieves colic. Oooookay. That said, I told fava that when I have a kid someday, I totally expect the Tummy Tub from her as a baby shower gift. Because not only is it hysterical-looking, it makes perfect sense. (Seriously, though, imagine that this has an agitator. HILARITY.)
