sometimes I wonder..


why I cannot for the life of me say NO!! Is this a weak characteristic? Am I a people pleaser? Is it because I want everyone to like me? Case in point. I have a current plumbing bill of, oh $125.00. So, plumbers wife calls and would like to trade for "some of my delicious cooking"! Oh, ok, sure.. I should have written the check..here is her request
2 pans of lasagna
1 buffalo wing dip
1 Colby Jack Chicken dip
1 pan of Macaroni and cheese
1lb of chicken salad
1lb of Pimento cheese
I email her back and tell her she now owes me $40.00, she says, just make it one pan of lasagna and we will call it even..geez thanks! needless to say, I spent more than $125.00 at the store.. when will I learn!!!
on another note, a good friend brought me 25 tomatoes and I made 2 tomato pies..one for me and one for ...her..see I can't stop being nice!! LOL!

Oh my gosh, that is totally something that would happen to me, ha! That's horrible and if there's a next time, ask to see the list first and negotiate from there.
I'm guessing she doesn't cook to think one pan of Lasagna is $40? lol
