Guilty Pleasures

Today was designated Be-Nice-To-Me Day.

Of course, I immediately botched it up, because the first thing I did was go and get my legs waxed.

I did get into the spirit of things right after with some very satisfying retail therapy and followed that with homemade sourdough waffles for lunch. Dinner was a lovely chicken garlic leek soup with a half ton of parsley from my window box. Very tasty.

Otherwise, my day has been filled with tea and the bagful of Regency Romances I snapped up from the Bargain Tent on Friday night. $5 for the lot, so the guilt is rather lessened. And not a jot of physical labor! (I haven't even *knitted* today!)

While I'm at it, some other (non-guilty) highlights of my book haul are:
Cooking for Two (I can never leave without a cookbook. Never fails.)
Our Bodies, Ourselves (A more recent edition than the one I currently own.)
Down with Love DVD (Ewan!)
Crown of Slaves - David Weber & Eric Flint
Windrider's Oath - David Weber (I got the ebooks off of Baen's site back when they were first published, but I wanted the hardbacks)
The DaVinci Code (so I can return Mom's copy)
Waterloo: New Perspectives (Still haven't found a good overview of the Napoleonic Wars, but I'll keep looking.)
Jingo
Reaper Man
Small Gods - Terry Pratchett (I'm still building up my Pratchett collection, if you can believe it. I needed another copy of Small Gods - my first one's almost in tatters.)
Curse of Chalion - Lois McMaster Bujold (In paperback. This would be copy #3 - the other two are signed hardbacks.)
Origin of Satan - Elaine Pagels
A Heyer regency whose title I can't quite make out from this distance
Six of the Whodunit series for Rhi. They're already boxed, but they're ones she doesn't have yet.
And a few other oddments.
