What you need vs. what you want

Could you resist these?
I couldn't.

We ended up at Williams Sonoma innocently enough, in search of a new toaster oven. We left with a "filled-pancake pan", batter mix, and pecan pumpkin butter to fill them with. I can almost hear my sister cackling as she reads this since she manages a WS store and talks all the time about people like me who can't resist the food samples and end up buying all the acoutrement because they have no will power. In my defense, the saleswoman appealed to my 17 month-old son who gobbled that pumpkin-filled pancake before I could even say, "Thanks, sure we'll try one."
