12 hours of shopping!!!

Thanks for everyone's insight about love & marriage. I want to clarify that what I said was my own thoughts, not what is supposed to be. And this is the reason I asked you to know what others think about the topic. All your answers were very insightful, with sincerity and hope! So happy for you people! ^_^
This post will be dedicating to the marathon shopping day that I had, and very poor in term of foods. I left home at 9.30am and did not get back until 10pm, exhausted but happy with all my purchases. Qiao, a friend her and I went to Leesburg Outlet, Tyson Corner Mall and chinese market. I haven't had a entire day dedicated to girls shopping for ages and to be honest, I wanted to go home after the first 3 hours among a big crowd of people (I'm the kind of people who get bored shopping after a couple of hours), but as I was with my friends and they were super enthusiastic about hunting for more, I stayed and didn't complain. And finally I'm glad that I did it because I found more and more stuffs that I liked. ^_^
I finally got the start kit of minerals foundation from Sephora.
I need to figure out how to use it. Do you guys have any tip for it?
Clothes: top from Banana Republic and pants from MNG
As I'm a true foodie who loves cooking/baking and good eats, I spent more time on HOME/Kitchen store than clothing stores. Look what I got: mini baking molds (can't wait to bake mini desserts!!! ) and 3 placematsThat's all! Not a lot, but every item was chosen carefully so I really enjoyed the process of shopping (not just grab the item and check out) and proud of them. ^_^

In term of food, I only had breakfast and a seemingly dinner at home.
Breakfast (after I took Star to the airport) was another bowl of oat bran with coconut milk
  • 1/2 c. oat bran
  • 1/2 c. coconut milk
  • 1/2 c. broco-flower puree
  • big spoon of PMAB
  • frozen blueberries
I grab two bars that were very needed as we didn't have lunch until 2.30pm. We went to Panera and I had the Pick-Two Combo: cafe classic salad + 1/2 Mediterranean veggie sandwich + 1/2 french baguette. It was my first time in Panera and I liked it a lot, especially the french baguette. I finished the WHOLE combo, very satisfied and ready to do more shopping. (sorry, no pic!)
The seemingly dinner at 10.30pm was an apple and another big bowl of kabocha. I was too tired to prepapre dinner, so I went for the simplest and yummiest combo! ^_^
What a wonderful day, isn't it? Girls shopping trips are exhausting but so fun!! ^_^

Question: Who do you go for shopping? Who is your favorite company? girlfriends, boyfriend or your mom? My favorite company is my mom, she knows exactly what I like and can walk for an entire day without getting tired.
