Clothes, it turns out

I've been wanting to learn how to decorate cakes.  I don't want to make wedding cakes or anything, but I thought it would be a useful talent.  Do you know how expensive decorated kids cakes are?  Since we have lots of birthdays and events coming up, I thought to myself, "self, you should be able to do some basic decorating."  I thought I would use my tax rebate money to enroll in a cake decorating class.  Alas, there are none to be found.  I looked at community colleges, grocery stores, and even bakeries, but no dice.  The only thing I came up with were semester-long cake decorating classes.  Now I'd like to learn as much as the next gal, but I'm not spending a couple hundred dollars and an entire semester doing it.  In the end, I bought a few pieces of clothing to supplement my sad, sad little wardrobe.  Yes, Cathy, I bought a rocking pair of jeans too.
