 I'm happy cookies are no longer a vice. They were pre-op. Now I just cannot do too many sweets if I try. It starts to become very yucky after about the 2nd one.

Did have an addiction to Coffee, but lately the desire's not there.
Shirts! I LOVE this one paticular style of blouse and I can't stop buying them! In fact, I ordered 2 new ones and should be at my door when I get home. Yay!

Shopping has ALWAYS been a vice of mine.  I'm a self proclaimed product junkie....in particular hair, skin, nail polish and cosmetic products bring me great joy (don't ask).  If there's a new body wash, face cream, or eye shadow that's been released chances are I've already tried it and can give you a run down of the pros and cons and compare it to 3-4 other products that are in my "stash". 
Lately though, there have been some really good semi annual sales and drug store make up sales and I've been in hog HEAVEN....until I look at my bank account and reality sets in.  I've had get really stern with myself and say "do you really need ANOTHER foundation....you have 4 different ones already and only ONE face".  Here lately its been helpful and getting me to walk away.  I'm also trying to stop the impulse purchases...those things where I test it in the store, love it...only to get it home and after a few uses...figure out it SUCKS.  So I go to Sephora and ask for samples of things I want to try out...test them for a few days/week and if it REALLY is all that great, I'll go back and get it.   

I've also had to really make the effort to not even stop at any stores after work/gym (Target owns my soul...and is right across the street from my gym).  I'm trying to remove the temptation by not going into the stores.  So far this week I haven't made a simple purchase outside of gas.  I'm also doing little self imposed "challenges" with myself to sue things up.  For instance, I'm doing a "10 pan" challenge.  I've chosen 10 products that I don't use that often but I LOVE and my goal is to use them up.  When they are all gone, I get to "splurge" on one item I've had my eye on for a while.

Nutella on Nutty Grain Bread. Chalk this one up to pregnancy cravings, since I didn't have this before the fact, but yeah, I would eat this over any meal any day LOL

Baked goods, all the way.  My weekly Saturday morning trip to the local bakery to pick something heavenly to snack on. 

Lately, and I'm ashamed to admit this, pop tarts.  Can't stop eating pop tarts.  One a day for late night snack.

I have never liked pop tarts for some reason. Even as a kid...i always felt weird about not liking them.

Be happy.

I've never really liked them either.  Always thought they smelled and tasted like dog food.  Not sure WTH is up with me lately!  LOL
