Smithfield Outlets

Good evening!  This morning I went with a friend to Smithfield for outlet shopping!  I really expected it to me like most other shopping trips - I look at a lot of things, try a lot of things on and then end up not getting anything.  Today was not like that - I had a blast!!!!  Here are the goodies:

 4 little ramekins!

 a Gap tank top for 2.99!

 Super cute flats and a matching clutch (well super big wallet that I intend to use like a clutch)

 Black wallet for dad.

 2 pairs of lucky brand jeans - the only jeans that seem to fit me.  So sad because the outlet store is only going to be open for like 2 more weeks.  I scored these two pairs for 20 a piece!

 And the biggest, most awesome purchase of the day - of the year perhaps! - a 10 inch Le Creuset Skillet!

 It looks orange but its red, I swear.  I have wanted one of these for so long, but I am quite frugal and I could never get myself to part with the money.  Today however we were at the outlet so it was super cheap and then on top of that they gave me a 25% off coupon - how could I not buy one?

 I am so excited about this purchase!  This makes me a real cook now, right? Here I am holding my new baby:

 I got some other stuff at the Le Creuset store:

A bottle of cleaner so I can take care of my skillet properly, a silicone handle for it, a marinade brush (or butter brush), and a teeny-tiny spatula for getting out the last bit from a jar.

I also got a watch today - I didn't take a picture of it.  Its the same watch that I had before - the one that got taken when the house was broken into.  Its nothing fancy but its pink and sparkly so I like it - I bet the thief was disappointed though.  While looking for the watch I tried on some fun sunglasses:

There is a Cracker Barrel right next to the outlet so we ate there for lunch!  I LOVE Cracker Barrel.  Of course I had a biscuit w/ strawberry jelly:

Its one of the best things about eating there!  I ordered Chicken N' Rice which was the special:

On the side I got Lima beans - you cannot eat in a Cracker Barrel on a Saturday and not get Lima beans.  Well, that is our family rule at least.  The pic did not come out good so you don't get to see them, but you know what Lima beans look like, right?

Anyways, what a great way to spend a Saturday - with a friend, shopping and getting some GREAT deals.  I am so glad I went, I had a blast!  I will be going back to Smithfield Outlets again for sure(perhaps to get a Le Creuset dutch oven hehe.)
