Waiting on Wednesday

I am a terrible baker. I just don't have the patience or talent for it. Casey's My friend Johnny once told me that I make the ugliest cakes, this coming from the guy that told my Mom she was the Isaac Newton of dessert making. Well of course the only time of year (besides Casey's birthday) I need to bake, my pretty much brand new oven breaks. So I am sitting here waiting on the repair man. You know that whole "I'll come between 8 o'clock and 2 o'clock deal"?? Well I decided to do some repairs of my own on a Robert Rodriquez dress with missing buttons. Good thing I keep a button box full of all my tags with buttons and matching thread, I was easily able to pull out the correct buttons an quickly fix my dress, no 8-2 window necessary. Seriously who gets the repair man at the 8 o'clock time slot? I always get the 2 o'clock one!

My broken oven. We got this thing in August, of course it blows up on me now when I need to bake cookies for my new neighbors and my lovely UPS man who brings me Neiman's and ShopBop packages.
What do you get your UPS man (or women)? We are debating what to get him besides cookies, since he comes so often.
Extra Button box. Of course a Martha Idea, I have also seen her use a binder. How do you organize your extra buttons? Or do you toss yours?
Yay for saving buttons!
My poor dress that needed to be fixed.
Here's to hoping the repair man gets here soon! I am debating between a yoga video, wrapping presents or catching up online. Well with a 8:oo-2:00 window I may fit them all in!
