What's new

Amazon shopping

Books are my most favorite thing to order on Amazon. I keep a running wish list and when there's extra $$$ I'll buy a book or two...us.

And FYI - a couple of weeks ago (before the TP craze) I ended up buying Amazon brand TP and it was great.
 
My knobs came on Friday and I put them on this morning!! I also ordered another set of 30 because I have even more cupboards plus a desk in the kitchen. I may put the extra in my bathroom. For sure, I will swap out my least favorite ones.

Hubby is not a fan, but he said if I was happy. Yes, they make me happy.
 
A friend of mine recommended this game for the kids during quarantine... she said it was super funny to play. So it's sitting in my cart.

I also just learned about new lego thing called "Lego dots" that i did not see on Amazon. It must be too new! Lol

I have also been thinking about trying to get padded mountain biking shorts, new cutting boards, and i broke my headphones so i may need to replace them. We might be looking into more educational games or puzzles to keep us entertained while schools are closed for the next few weeks.... *shrug* :giggle

Those look great. Did you install them yourself or was there already a spot so you just switched them out?

I'm still trying to get TP off amazon! lol
 
Oh boy . . . this is my kinda thread!

Birdseed - Since I'm home all day, I like to hear happy birds and my cats like watching them!

Floret Farms: A Year in Flowers - I adore this book! They have a great business story, the images are so inspiring and I'm adding zinnias and dahlias to my garden this year.

Microfleur Microwave Flower Press - This thing is so cool! Great way to preserve the flowers from your garden (or favorite gift bouquet) in literally MINUTES!

Rock Art Handbook - Since we cannot connect with people directly, this is a fun way to leave some happy art around the neighborhood. I got this for my granddaughter at Christmas and she loves all the ideas!

I'm getting ready to order these cabinet pulls for my kitchen - 25pk Matte Black Cabinet Pulls. I looked at something similar at Lowes last night, but they would have cost me 2 or 3 times as much. I told DS while we were there "Bet I can find a better deal on Amazon".

When we shop in a store, we pull up amazon and always check the prices. Almost 9 times out of 10 its cheaper there

I just used the existing hole in the cabinets. I will tell though, having my head down that close to things, I realized how dirt has been hiding...

Some of our favorite visual perception games: Blokus, Set, Qwirkle, and Sequence.
For spelling and vocabulary: Bananagrams and Scrabble (although as a poor speller I find Scrabble more frustrating than fun).
For role-playing & strategy: Catan, Ticket to Ride, and a host of others as this market has really taken off
Dominoes
Card games of all kinds: Risk, Skip-bo, Phase 10, etc.
Hand & Foot (uses 1 deck of regular cards per player - look up the rules online - many variations - can take hours to play)
For creative storytellling & word games: Dixit (kind of like Apples to Apples but visual), Codenames

we love most of these games too. Sequence is one we started playing again recently. Cover your assets is also a fun game we like to play.
 
Sigh. I had my photos arranged in an Iris 6-Case 5" x 7" Photo and Craft Storage Box and I was SO proud of myself for getting one year in each little container. Then this whole voluntary quarantine thing happened and I cleaned out my office and my master bedroom ... and while cleaning I found these:

Because when SF or PP has a sale, I buy prints (or print credits to use later...). They're mostly photos from 2016 thru 2019, but some are older. I'll have to re-organize everything, but afterwards it would be great to get ALL the photos into albums. So I hopped on Amazon and bought 2 of these Pioneer 4x6 albums. I don't think it'll be enough space, but it's a start. :) One arrived this afternoon and I like it. Hopefully I have time to clear off the dining table tomorrow and just sit and organize prints while the kids do e-learning.
ETA: I should say that I bought prints but I thought I had them all in one spot so that when I organized them into the Iris photo box, they all got put in order. But I was wrong.

I need to get some prints going but I have been doing 5x7 size and it's so hard to find an album or even sheets for that size.

That is a more difficult size to find, which is a bummer because it's a fun print size!
