ok, enough about cooking and weddings...

i love the bridal websites. i read them everyday, a couple of them are on my Google RSS reader. but i was just thinking -- isn't it totally absurd that women will spend hours of their lives figuring out a way to hand make invitations in order to save $75 dollars (inevitably, this involves buying a mini printing press called a gocco and DIY brides have single-handedly saved the gocco company from rehabilitation)?

ok, in and of itself that's not totally absurd. but think about harnessing all that creative, cost saving thought towards something that actually matters. such as... finding renewable energy?

HOW MY INTERESTS DEVELOPED said...

Good point, Suzy, but several of my past or current coaching clients seem to want to have more time available for "crafty" things like knitting and jewelry making. They are women who have other jobs and/or responsibilities and feel a great release while doing these things. Of course a special printing press or whatever does seem a bit much to me.
