Today was Oprah's Favorite Things episode, the most anticipated TV episode in all the land. But it was a total cop out this year. MAKE gifts?! Say nice THINGS about people?! This isn't fairy land, Oprah. Give us the good stuff.
In order to satiate your need to be told what to buy, I have compiled a list of my favorite things this year. It's a more modest list than Oprah's normal favorite things, and you get nothing free from my list, but I hope you enjoy it and/or anonymously judge me from the comment box. Feel free to post your favorite things below. It's Black Friday Almost Eve and we need to stimulate this economy! Sexy.

Dining Deal: Morton's 30th Anniversary Special. John and I have partaken in this special event, and it is worth every penny and every ounce of every pound. Make sure you skip the Key Lime Pie in favor of the Hot Chocolate Cake. Also, I can't find a link to it, but there is a fabulous drink on the menu that is much like a non minty mojito. Drink it.
Snack: Fiber One Oats and Caramel Bars. Nom nom nom. I'm pretty much a fan of anything Fiber One. It makes me feel like I'm almost eating something healthy, and I like that.
Clothing
I haven't bought much this year that wasn't maternity-related because I'm still trying to fit comfortably back into my old clothes (thanks, baby!). Alas, I bought myself a pair of these pants from L.L. Bean that are cheap, elastic, and can be pretend "dress up" pants. No one...will know. Except that I just told them.
Toiletries
I love this soap because it smells like Pez candy. What's more special than that?
And if you're fruity like me, you'll love this fruity Avojuice hand lotion (though they've discontinued my favorite grape flavor).
I adore the rosy scent of Stella McCartney's perfume (maybe it reminds me of my Rose Petal doll from back in the day, so what?). It's also natural and organic. Made from the bones of Chilean children or something.
I'll be back with more later. You've been warned.

I feel that I must come clean about my addiction to Bath & Body Works soaps. If I run out, it's like I'm obsessed with getting more...like I can't just use the Target stuff anymore. And the deal...I'm a little bit OCD about the three-fer deal as well. Each scent is better than the next, although avoid Velvet Tuberose, which reminds me of a combination of my fourth grade ex-nun teacher and a box of mothballs.
