$40

Today I took $40 out of my bank account at approximately 9:30am. I was on my way to the farmer's market with my friend Kristin and her friend Bri, and I needed cash. I really had no intention of spending all of the $40, but it's definitely gone (should I really be surprised?) and as I was thinking back over the events of the day, it kind of just...randomly dissipated..

At 6:45pm, with my $40, I have acquired:

-Two bunches of spring onions, one white and one red
-One bunch of radishes
-Half a pound of crimini mushrooms
-One pound of fingerling potatoes
-One bunch of flowering chives (which are quite beautiful and also have purple, edible, onion-y blooms attached)
-One organic cheddar and dill scone that was excellent but also the weight of a brick
-One pair of $5.99 sunglasses to replace a pair I scratched in Florida
-Tangerine shampoo that smells like summer
-Two gallons of Benjamin Moore paint, one chocolate brown and one tan (actually kind of a nasty color) which I found on Craigslist for $5
-One sneaky item for a friend which is actually from her husband, which I purchased in Target while she wasn't paying attention, and then forgot to give him and get the money he owed me (oops)

And I actually do have a few dollars hanging around in my purse.

I have been everywhere from downtown to the northwest suburbs today and I had big plans for dinner with roasted potatoes with purple chive blossoms and pasta with asparagus and mushrooms...who knows if that will happen.
