Stupid Economy!

I left work early today and was excited to watch Oprah's Favorite Things Gift Show. Oh, what could she possibly come up with this year! Well I'll tell you....NOTHING!

The show is about being thrifty this year and giving gifts from the heart. Bleh!
Yeah, like she knows how to be thrifty!

I would be so mad if I was in the audience and didn't get a cool gift. Last year she gave away a talking refrigerator.....this year a holiday CD and recipes that you can find on oprah.com.

Lame.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
How do I know this you say?

I know that it is Christmas time because....

I get one million catalogs a day beginning in early November, even random ones that I didn't sign up for.
AND I actually read through all of them. This is what I got in the mail yesterday. Yes, all of these in one day!

Starbucks cup design changes during the holidays. When I see a red holiday cup I know it's time to start shopping!
LOVE the peppermint mocha during the winter.

I love these mint candies! They are so minty and chewy.

I bought some a few days ago and have eaten half the bag!

These are just a few things that get me in the holiday spirit....

What are a few things that remind you of the season?
