GCers favorite things (like Oprah's favorite things)
 
For some reason I was thinking of Oprah's favorite things episodes (and how I would die to be on one of them!). What are some of your random favorite products/things?

Sweatpants: anything fron Hollister. Normally I hate those kinds of stores, but their sweatpants are SO comfy, aren't terribly expensive, are cute, and are actually long enough for people like me with long legs.

Snack bar: Slim Fast Peanut Crunch. They taste just like Clark bars or Butterfingers.

flannel pajama bottoms. I spend a whole day in them........

Godiva Dark Chocolate w/ Raspberries: Just got done eating one and I really wish I had another. mmmmmmm

My Boyfriend's Dog: My baby, my companion, my little angel. :)

My Boyfriend: That would be rude if I included his dog and not him.

My Old ZTA Sweatshirt: The one that my sorority little sister stole from me. grrrrrr. I will hunt her down and steal it back from her. It's so comfy.

Apples: I love apples.

Sushi: I love sushi.

Mommy and Daddy: I love my mommy and daddy.


I have officially started to go insane after a day of looking at proposals. I am now finished and have nothing to do but hang out on GC. I need, need, need to go home.
