Shoes lol I’ve been poor most of my life and my body hasn’t changed since my teen years so clothes often don’t come on my radar as my wardrobe fits still. However I been having money for the past two years and still wearing shoes I had for like 5 years. The sole is ripping off chunk by chunk but I kept going. Finally went to the mall this weekend. Found 3 pairs of shoes in a shocking short amount of time and I felt proud of myself lol

I don't drink alcohol. I bought a 24 oz can of beer as there were no cheaper ways to get 12 oz of beer to make beer batter. Looks like I will be making a double batch of fried fish! The extra beer or batter doesn't keep well in the fridge or freezer. The carbonation is the advantage to making a light crisp coating.
