Happy Belated Christmas to me!

[bingbangbaby]

I bought myself some stuff
Most of it was quite inexpensive and the whole mess cost under $25 total so I really couldn't resist. The Christmas CD is from a few years back and has Jane Leeves on it; she sings Winter Wonderland. Bebe Neuwirth and Wendie Malick are singing on it too. I paid 33 cents for that. Cool. The other CD ("Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs") is a Frasier soundtrack and while it has a lot of good stuff on it, it's missing some stuff I would have liked included. But it was only a couple bucks too. "The Frasier Companion" is a cd rom and I have no idea what it's all about other than the product description (just got it today) but it was under $2.00 so I figured 'what the heck?' The books look great too... Merry Christmas to me.

All that stuff looks awesome. I'm jealous now. I have always wanted a Frasier book. I have been wanting the CD with Jane singing on it. She really has a great singing voice. I'm so happy for you. I hope you enjoy them.

That first book on the left in that pic, I have that! It's a very good book, and I recommend it to anyone who loves the show. I know that Schmoopie also owns a copy - which was a Christmas gift from yours truly! :P I've seen that What's Your Frasier IQ? book pop up in the Amazon Marketplace, and I've def. thought of getting it. That CD-Rom sounds awesome! Where'd you get it? Oh, and I've heard Jane sing that song, too. I somehow came into possession of an mp3 of it. *looks around nervously*

It all came from amazon and related sellers and it was all secondhand/used and priced very well. The cd rom and the CD's weren't even opened, and the books are in fine shape, covers are a little worn but they aren't torn or bent, and all the pages are there and they aren't written or highlighted in or anything. The only real wear any of the books show is on the covers, and it's not even that bad. Just looks like they've been on a bookshelf for awhile. I was really happy with their condition.

You could still get a lot of this, although I noticed some of it doesn't have the "fulfillment by amazon" option that I used for most of it, so you may have to pay shipping. I only had to pay shipping on some of it because I combined it with another order I was placing so that most of it worked within amazon's super saver for free shipping. Maybe you could keep an eye on it and see if that option shows back up. But the shipping I did pay on a couple of items was only about $3.00 and since I was getting the item so cheap I was okay with that. I didn't pay more than $7.00 for any one of these items and most of it was way cheaper than that.

andress_jade,

Thanks for sharing that, I really enjoyed it. I thought it was cute when she said at the end "I think I'm ready for a hot toddy." I just love her.
Such a pretty voice.

Wow, that's awesome you bought all that! Happy reading & listening! I want that first book...I wouldn't mind the CD too! I love Jane's voice...

"and the more toddy the better!" I like the little laugh when she says that too. It's a very cute version of the song. Actually the whole cd is decent.

I like her voice too. She definitely has a Broadway voice. I'd love to see her on Broadway in a musical.

Love that book. It was so worth the few dollars I paid for it used. It would be worth full price too. Love, love, love the cookbook too. Haven't made a lot out of it yet but most of the recipes are things I would eat and things that sound really good to me. I like the script book too, but it only goes to about season 6; I think there's another one that was done later, like 2001 or 2002, and I'm going to get that one too (used, of course) the next time I place an amazon order. It has some of the scripts from the really good later episodes in it, from what I can tell. They're as fun to read as they are to watch!
The rest of the stuff I'm still checking out. I just got the Frasier IQ book today... I was starting to worry about it! I ordered it all at the same time but that one took a lot longer to get here. Maybe I'll post some questions from it whenever I have a moment.

I was just looking at my Cafe Nervosa Cook Book. I want to make the Sweet Onion-Smoothered Hamburgers on page 39!!!

Like this post - glad you treated yourself. We need that now and then. I was looking up Frasier on eBay and found the coffee collector kit. HA! They are trying to sell it for $308. There are no bids of course. I don't remember what I paid for mine, but it didn't come close to that.

Yeah! I love onions. I'm eyeing up those Crispy Potato Tomato and Mozzarella Squares on page 43, although they look like a bit of work. I also want to try all those drinks in that Some Like It Hot section starting on page 87. As soon as I have a day off with nothing planned, I'm going to try some of those.

So cool! You got some really nice Frasier items.
