Raindrops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens

Did you know that this is my 600th post? I should have balloons or something...
But instead I'm going to steal from Oprah and Julie Andrews and talk about my favorite things. Now that Black Friday is over and Cyber Monday is coming to a close, you may be sick of Christmas shopping. But here are some inexpensive, fun items that make me happy, and they might make you happy too.

#1 -Palmolive Pure and Clear Dish Soap
It smells nice.
It works.
It's cheap.
It's pretty. (for a dish soap)


#2 - Burt's Bees Radiance Face Stuff
I got a sample pack of this line as a gift and I've fallen in love with it! I have normal/oily skin and it moisturizes just the right amount. And it has a faint, lovely, perfume smell.

#3 - Stonyfield Organic Yogurt.
I'm always on the hunt for things that are not overwhelmingly sweet tasting. Yogurt is VERY sweet. You can buy the kind with fake sugar but it tastes like fake sugar and that is worse than being too sweet. BUT. Then came Stonyfield. It is not too sweet. Just right. I'll admit it's overpriced so I don't get it every time.


#4 - Yarn things
I have yarn friends who make me precious little yarn gifts and I love them. If you don't have yarn friends, go to www.etsy.com and find some handmade yarn goodies of your own.


More tomorrow...

actually if they don't have yarn things, they should go to my etsy site, where I am selling my mom's yarn things...and maybe if I get two seconds, then my own yarn things, too. :)

Thanks for the list. Now I can finish my Christmas shopping.

Is your right foot really longer than the left or did someone just make the yarn thingie too big? MO
