I've had a housework day today, an irregular event, and when I was dusting my PC keyboard, I happened to notice that Embroidery Library had lots of designs for $1.25 each. Of course, a few of them found their way into my basket and thence into my PC, but I haven't a clue what I might do with any of them!

Don't torture yourself and enjoy both: chocolate and designs :o) No need to feel guilty. We are just addictives and we need our "drugs".
We have a good excuse: We need the designs for work. Maybe one day there come a customer who will need this special design? How clever to buy it when it is on sale ;o)
Greetings, Bettina
And for the chocolate: Calories are small beasties that sit in your wardrobe by night and take in your clothes. Never blame the poor chocolate ;-)

Wait, I'm confused? You mean we HAVE to use every design we purchase? Oh, dear!

So I have to live a very long and busy life ;o)
If I will just stitch every christmasdesign from emblibrary that I have I am a lucky girl (not to mention all my other folders...).

I just love Emb Library! I think I am their best customer. Love the friday deals too. Great designs aand they sew out so great! Designs and Chocolates sound good together. hehe Suzanne

That is one magic duster if it can log in for you. Happy embroidering!

I am addicted to EmbLibrary designs. Not so much chocolate. Being a diabetic I can only dream about chocolate. Do love both. The designs somehow always find their way into my computer. Take their time to get into the machine though. One day................ Hugs Marg

This does not sound much like you Sue - the designs, not the housework :) It is so very hard to resist designs when they are on special. My weakness are fonts and I always try and say to myself 'do you need it or do you just want it'. You can guess what usually wins. The thing about designs you can keep for ever - as for chocolate............

I put them in my basket but do not buy until the weekend special comes out on Friday. Love you , Kay

Y E S!!!!!! I'll join you for afternoon tea as well! Love Chris

Ah yes, but those designs...you will always have them. Chocolate however???probably here today, gone tomorrow :D . For me though, that chocolate could sit for a month or more before I eat it-not a big chocolate fan.

Exactly!!

no chocolate designs are calorie free hehe

I have a wonderful collection of Embroidery Library designs from over the years - some purchased and some free..... I think most of mine would look great on a kitchen towel or long apron or a tote bag (and a few for bibs). So, for me, the chocolate sounds like a better choice!! Hugs to you, Laura

I only dust eye level (I'm short 4' 7 Ft) so I can't see too much. He-He!
But I'd vote for the chocolate anytime.

lol my son says Mother when did you dust the top of your refrigerator off last ?? lol ,i tell him he did it last and then he cleans it hehehe

I use one of those little square tablecloths to catch the dust and throw it in the wash every 6 or 12months. Son knows to throw in wash if he notices that it is dirty :-)

Chocolate is good for ones health they say... Designs don't have calories...hmmmm...a toss up for me! Oops sorry I have to go with the designs, they don't just jump on and add weight problems. LOL

Quick, get some chocolate, savor several pieces while looking at the new designs. The chocolate will greatly enhance your creative process and in no time you will have come up with an application for those new designs...even if only to cover up some now chocolate stained article ;-)

LOL

The good news is that it still counts as a housework day, to your credit. You dust your keyboard?? Wow. Mine has cooky crumbs and all sorts of telltale signs that I spend way too much time there downloading freebies. Congratulations on your clean house. (A clean house is a sign of a misspent life - ever heard that one?) Now, back to your stitching and enjoy; you've earned it.

Chocolate is always WITH....not instead of.

amen, sister!

by ansalu 21 Nov 2014

Totally agree with this :o)

Instead??
It is best to eat chocolate while searching through the designs (with your clean hand) for the perfect one to stitch next.

As a computer tech, I cannot recommend feeding your computer or the keyboard Chocolate. As a chocolate connoisseur I can only say sharing your chocolate with your computer would be a terrible waste!

I'll second that. The computer gets Cyberclean which it seams to enjoy.

Dusting the keyboard now that is a new one to me

I love their Christmas ornaments, but I'll eat some of the nice chocolate I still have in the cupboard instead.

No calories in the designs...but why not a box of chocolates to eat while contemplating the use of the designs...that would be a double win in my book! k

the design will last longer, no chance of making us fat.
