Flashback

My mom was busy cleaning out her craft/ironing/sewing/clothes storage/holiday decoration/multi purpose room the other night. After hours of her being in there up to something, I decided to go in and pay her a visit and see what she was up to.
She was busy sorting through a pile of books and was almost done. I of course immediately started cracking jokes at the sheer size of the pile of books and was making fun that her keep pile was far larger than her "donate" pile. So I naturally started helping weed out the really donate ones in the keep pile.
man I stumbled across some GEMS

this was a personal favorite. Really Mom?

This was another winner I found. I MADE her get rid of it after reading the 101 uses to her to help her realize the absolute uselessness of this. (She did however make me keep the free bandanna that came with the book. Which was still in mint condition perfectly folded inside the front cover)
My mom was upset when I threw it to the donate pile and I challenged her that any useless information contained in this book could easily be found on the internet.
She called me out and said I could not.
Foolish.
I of course checked my favorite site when it comes to online shopping and look what we have here....
found in less than a minute
Internet 1- Mom 0

My other favorite part of the bandanna book? the back cover

For real?
