I know that most of us are addicted to CC....even though I don't post alot, I read everything, I just don't think that I'm skilled enough to offer advice on things....anyway...besides CC...what are you addicted to??

I will start....I am addicted to Carb Countdown milk. I try to eat low carb...and this milk has very little sugar in it....I love to freeze it and eat it frozen, sort of like an icee.....I have to eat at least one a day.....on the good side...it's full of protein and calcium.....

So what is everyone addicted to?

I love learning new things. This summer I've been addicted to Sylvia Browne's books. I've been watching her on Montel Williams for a few years, but I bought books on Ebay (11 total) and I've read 6 already and began the 7th last week. All this in 3 months icon_surprised.gif let's just say, I'm more at peace with life itself, and ready to live!!! I can't tell in here all that I've learned because there's too much things!!!!

So anyone else with other addictions?

Hi, I'm Glenda and I'm a cake book addict! I have to stay off eBay or I would buy them all if I could...I think I've bought 5 from eBay in the last month! Plus of course I HAD to have the new 2007 Wilton yearbook and the new Tiered Cakes book! In addition to books, I am getting more interested in fondant icing, especially making fondant flowers and I have started to buy a lot of that lately! (Thank goodness for the HL 50% off coupon this week!)

DH has a major gun collection, I try to use that as my excuse for the amount of cake stuff I buy, but that doesn't always work!

*Edited to say: party.gif Post 500!!!! Looks like I am officially a Forum Addict too!!!!! icon_lol.gif

Agreed on that! thumbs_up.gif I Dont even trade in my books for different ones LOL my collection of books has trucked around with me and grown over several decades (still have kids books - not all but the classics like CS Lewis and a myriad of other books I still reread/share with all the kids in my family). I'd say when I move, that my boxes of books take up more room than anything else LOL (plus they weigh a ton- much to the chagrin of the people who usually help me move LOL).

OTher than books I would have to say sushi and single malt scotch and the ocean and anything and everything celtic and or scottish. I'm also addicted to music of all kinds, not sure if that's an addiction. Just something I'd die without LOL ok so I guess that makes it an addiction or I'll just call it a lifeline LOL

As for 'bad' things to be addicted to I guess I'd haveto add ice cream- icon_redface.gif shamefully or maybe shamelessly lol addicted to ice cream (not all kinds mind you) - I dont consider the other things listed to be bad so phooey on youeey LOL

I love to play and digi-scrap in photoshop, and that started a serious hobby in photography; just can't afford it. lol. My true very very did I say very sad addiction is to the game sim2, honestly I can play for hours it is really sad. I am a grown adult who can't wait for an expansion pack to come out. There it is out, I feel better. lol.

WOW! Where do I start? In no particular order, but here goes.
Cakes of course, my work at the bakery, red-hots candy, sushi, my wonderful 18yo girl!!!!

Staying 110pounds, my 2 dogs and 2 cats, not having a husband icon_lol.gif but looking/hoping/praying for a great guy to hang out with.

Cooking, collecting recipes, my new car a mustang. A clean house and work inviroment. One of my co-workers is a GREAT decorator, but she is a mess icon_eek.gif.

Maybe, I should stop here. This really looks like alot when you put it in type icon_razz.gif

Any kind of antiques and especially antique glass. I just can't stay away from that stuff even though I have a closet completely full of it. It just screams at me "COME BUY ME"!!
