Salud, Kids!
Is it just us? I'm serious. Are we the only ones attempting to discover and embrace a new dawning of chic? Perhaps.
Wait. Paula Deen, the queen of all things butter, did mention on the Food Network how awesome it is to make delicious food costing mere pennies. She threw in how it is possible and fun to find glorious treasures, such as fancy linen napkins and table decor at your local flea markets. Points to Paula for keeping it mostly real.
Okay then...Cheeply Chic AND Paula Deen. I think the rest of the world has gone mad.
Why you ask?
Did you kids see the story of the Getty divorce situation? Well, it is fascinating and insane. Evidently it takes around $300,000.00-per MONTH-for this Getty woman to live in the standard to which she is accustomed. I'm not kidding, but she has to be. Yes, yes, the Getty fortune is a million-billion or something along those lines. I don't care how much they have, the universe does not need to hear of such excess. It's not like she was asking to fund a new kidney or something. Nah, she needs to give parties and shop. Seriously sad. Help any helpless lately, lady? Just asking.

My Cheeply Chicness got really rankled today when I heard about AMC and maybe other movie theaters raising ticket prices---a lot. Yep, they've decided patrons need to PAY dearly for the privilege of seeing crap movies, especially the 3D variety. If you ask me, and they will never, they should pay US to come and see the drivel on the screens. We all know the prices they charge for stale popcorn and syrupy drinks is already extortion. Isn't that enough? Apparently not. Greed is so un-chic.

It's Chic To Be Cheep
Love the video of the yacht show!
ReplyDeleteI did not hear about AMC, but that is ridiculous!
I've been trying to be "cheeply chic," lately but have mostly been cheap! I'm being cheap by getting a deal on having our yard sprayed for weeds and pine needles spread by paying in cash!!! I'm also being cheap by hiring a college student to mow our lawn and trim bushes. None of this is glamorous or chic, but hey I'm on a budget and can save by not hiring a professional company to do the work!
Hope you have a fabulous weekend!

These are excellent suggestions. You're the best!!
