Call me a woman, if you like, but I seem to enjoy spending money.
Last week we bought a printer in Eindhoven and despite the obvious problems of getting the thing home, I was humming cheerfully at the end of the day. And I noticed it again as I was shopping for some Drachenfest things. Some things are for other people (coloured lenses) and some things are just because we need them (a new tea pot). But all in all, I was having a blast.

I picked up ten spunges, several brushes, a set of skin-colour make up, coloured lenses, but also a new pepper mill (because NoKey's old one sucks) a new tea pot, a urinoir-steel* embossed tea tray for the Anarquendor, large and sturdy shopping bags that zip up at the top, ideal for bags of banners, tablecloths and costumes, etc.

Okay, now I'm broke. Tea, and then it's off to Rotterdam with me!

*) This is a Dutch expression. I am not kidding. We call it "Pisbakkenstaal".**
**) Okay, it's probably not really a urinoir-steel tea tray, but it definitely looks slightly cheap and I'm not sure it isn't. But it will look cute on my side board.
