True.

Maybe this time will be different... Maybe it will be filled with interesting and beautiful things, maybe my nostrils won't be assaulted by the sad stench of vag soap and lavender oil...maybe it will be the best market experience ever!

Only time will tell.

Oh this could take a while. I'll try find pics online later of what I bought, but I mostly shopped in Cotton On, Myer (kid specific brands I hadn't heard of), and H&M. I saw Witchery had some pretty chic kids clothes but they were a tad too big. Oh and Zara too. I think the Zara clothes may be my favourite actually.

I now dream of being a gazillionaire mother with a famous baby fashion blog. I don't think I'll get my dream somehow, but that's probably for the best as I'd mostly suck at it.

It is the same result every time. You hope this one will be different, you hope this one won't be filled with the same boring, repetitive, pointless shit, then you waste your time looking only to be faced with the same disappointment once it is over.

Much like reading a Witty Banter post really.

You've managed to stretch one boring post into twelve nauseating episodes yourself. Breakfast update is I'm being crazy with 2 vertical and 1 horizontal weetbix, and get this, sprinkling a broken weetbix as a changeup garnish. White medium unpatterned bowl, stainless steel soup spoon, perfectly chilled milk. Leave to mushify to taste.

Going to straighten my hair and everything.

What's sad is that they grow out of the clothes so quickly though!

I know, it seems like such a waste of money in that regard. Same with shoes. I tried to buy things with more give even up to a size 4, but still limited wear in the long run.
 
I have been the eumundi markets a few times, always on a Wednesday too. The people I'd with would be so excited but I was a bit meh. I bought an egg poacher and some cool cleaning cloths there as well as a pencil case. All things I could buy here in Sydney I think, but I still use all three. I saw an SES dress on a rack there actually, since when is that at markets. I also spent $10 to have my palms read and he said I was great with numbers which is so far from accurate that it's not funny.

Woohoo, Zara has some great kids stuff, I'd love to see some of the pieces if you have time! Did the parents love it? Kids clothes though very pricey for such a limited wear time. Witchery has beautiful stuff, but the quality, for what you pay, I refuse to go there now, all knits I got have lost their shape after a wash etc. H&M and cottonon kids great for daily wear too. You could be a child stylist :D

And yet here you are, salivating over my every word, eating it up with your stainless steel soup spoon. Maybe try Corn Flakes tomorrow, the Weetbix seem to make you bitter.

Oh my God, the side stall spruiker!

As soon as you make the mistake of locking eyes, you know your $5 is gone.

I have never even used my potato peeler extraordinaire, which is sad since the spruiker convinced me that it would be both economical and time saving for me to buy the second one half price, which resulted in me buying two.

I'm the worst with these types of things.

They had these guys in the car park selling this stuff to polish your car. I ended up buying two cans. I had never and still have never postured my car. I drive a 2000 model car which I prefer because I'm not overly worried about the look!

I'm such a sucker. They see me coming from a mile off.

Same!!!

My partner says "Bib, don't look! Don't look!!!!" Because he knows once I do, the wallet opens.

I just feel so sorry for them. Particularly when it is a hot day.
