OMG. I am so with you on this one. I know... it seems strange given that I often spend money easily (too easily) but there are definitely times when I just can't bring myself to do it. I actually called my duet partner once in a near panic attack because I had no food in the house and plenty of money to buy groceries but every time I tried, the little voice in the back of my head told me I couldn't afford to go shopping... so I asked her to come with me to the store. It did actually help!

And oh, your haul sounds lovely. I've had a regular pluot; would be interested to know what the raspberry one tastes like.

(Do you know about salt potatoes?)
