Favorite Things ~ December 2011


Remember those Oprah episodes where she'd give everyone in her audience all her favorite things from the year? Well today, just for fun, I'm Linking up with the Nester to share about My Favorite Things. Same idea ... just some of these things couldn't really be given as gifts. But anyhow ...



The Biggest Loser - one of my fave, fave, fave shows. So inspirational to see the way people change their lives!


My Canon camera - LOVE! If I could afford to, I would TOTALLY give one of these to each of my besties!



Dayspring Cards. It's no secret that I sell Blessings Unlimited stuff, but I gotta tell ya - their greeting cards, which are made by Dayspring, are absolutely gorgeous and SO full of wonderful messages. I hope to be MUCH better about sending out cards this coming year.


Dancing with the Stars - another FAVE show ... I love the dances, the costumes, the humor, the judges, the glitz and glamour and it's all just absolutely fabulous!


Fabric ... so, so addicted to buying pretty fabrics!


Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka ... mmmmmmm, so good on a hot summer day!


Essie Nail polish in Mink Muffs - LOVING this color right now!


My faux leather journal/notebook. I use it to write prayer requests and praises, journal on occasion, write verses, etc. It's almost full, I need to find a new one!


Pandora radio .... what a great invention! Some days I listed to 'How Great is our God' radio, some days 'Taylor Swift' radio ... maybe even 'Jimmy Buffet' radio ... the choices are endless and I adore it.


My fave creamer. EVER. I only like Coffee Mate brand and I like a lot of flavors, but this is my number one fave.



And of course you have to have it with a little of this!! MMMMMM, just like a fancy {expensive} Starbucks drink!



Ruffly shirts ... any kind, any color, I'm addicted to ruffles lately!



Scrapbooking supplies ... not that I've had *any* time to scrap lately ... but the supplies sure are pretty!


My fave tea ... any time I feel the slightest sore throat or cold coming on I immediately start drinking this stuff and I swear by it, it makes the cold shorter and less severe! I FINALLY read this book this year and LOVED it ... can't wait for my friend to read it so that all my girlfriends and I can rent the movie and watch it together!


My Under Armor hot pink running shirt ... it actually makes it {sort of} enjoyable to run!




So there ya have it ... if I could buy one of everything for each of my best girlfriends, I totally would .... What are YOUR favorite things from this year??

Current Faves

  • Yummy organic Turkish blend coffee from my sis in law
  • Sparkpeople website - Join the Bootcamp program with me and together we can lose our behinds in 2009! (It's FREE to join!)
  • Fat free Vanilla Caramel Coffemate creamer - Yes! Finally my fave flavor comes in fat free!
  • Buy one get 2 free groceries that save me a ton of dough!
  • My new foot spa from my wonderful mother in law - seriously, just a 20 min foot soaking in the evening is one of the most wonderful things a Mom can do for herself!
  • My new One Year Chronological Bible New Living Translation (got a small bonus from work and bought it for myself) - I feel like I'm reading the greatest story ever told (well I am!).
  • A warm, heat filled house - it's been SO bitter cold here lately. I'm thankful that we are safe and warm in our home.
  • Storyteller's Club - I'm doing some serious catching up on my scrapbooking thanks to this awesome club. (No, I don't get any credit for talking about it!)
  • Finding great workout clothes on the clearance rack at Kohl's! I actually enjoy working out when I have some cool new duds to wear!
  • My amazing, hardworking hubby ... he works hard so I can be at home with the girls - even when the temps are freezing (he does an outdoor job) he works so hard and provides for our family. I'm so thankful.
  • Clementines ... wow, I never liked Oranges before but these little beauties are awesome. Are they only available at this time of year?
  • Dasani water ... call me crazy but I really do think it tastes better than other bottled waters!
  • When CVS has a sale on the exact kind of shampoo and conditioner that I currently love, exactly on the week that I'm about to run out!
  • Beautiful sunshine ... even on the bitter cold days when we can't be outside - at least we can enjoy opening up all the curtains and letting the sunlight pour in.
  • Google Reader - WOW, why didn't I know about this before?? My life is so much more simplified now and I can follow all my fave blogs so much easier! This is awesome ... and if you have no idea what I'm talking about let me know and I'll clue you in.
  • The Yada Yada Prayer Group by Neta Jackson ... I'm loving this book! It's really opened my eyes in many ways and also been refreshingly funny at the same time. Guess that's why it was 2008 Novel of the Year! {I love when she learns to accept that 'I'm just a sinner!' - can't stop saying that to myself ... "I'm just a sinner!"}
  • The Bachelor is starting again in just a couple of days ... and it's Jason the single Dad! Can't wait to watch! (I know, I'm pathetic!)
