OMG I hate those dumb fish things, too! And Anne Geddes! And if a thrift’s book section has microwave cooking, it usually has 10 kabillion grody romance novels, too - PASS.
Also on my hate list:

- Ye Olde religious books like “The Late Great Planet Earth” or anything by Wayne Dyer
- baskets full of florist foam and cheap florist vases
- manky old wooden signs that say “A Kitchen Prayer” or “A Mother’s Prayer”
