A few thoughts:

  • I like French cookware if I am going to drop dollars.
  • I like Japanese knives with the same condition.
  • So far I have been pretty cheap about furniture.

Although I am generally happy where I am now, I think I would be happier living on my own. I do miss living with my Mother and Stepfather. For that matter I miss living with the ex-g/f, even thought that experience sucked.

My list for what I want to buy just prior to move in is probably too large. It is what it is…

Coffee Table Crate and Barrel 400
Bed frame Online 200
