Oprah is probably gathering all her favorite things for that big giveaway episode of hers, but I can’t wait any longer to reveal one of my most favorite things: my Bonjour Caffe Frother Turbo. My sister coerced me into buying at the Tuesday Morning in Albuquerque. It was about $5, but I had just closed on my house and was an impoverished graduate student. Five dollars was a meal. I resisted, she insisted. I bought it.
I. Love. My. Frother.
I’m newly re-smitten with it because it has gotten cold enough in CT for a mug of hot chocolate or creamy chai in the evening. And let me tell you this. Hot chocolate or chai made with skim milk tastes FABU if you froth it up a bit prior to sipping.
Go get yourself one. I promise it will make you happy.
What’s one of your favorite things? Not the big ones like your spinning wheel or laptop or dog (oh, wait, that’s me), but one of the little ones that just makes life a little more fabu for you? C’mon, share.
Dreyer’s just released Sugar Free Coffee flavored ice cream. My new best friend 🙂
I do love a really good cup of mexican hot chocolate.
My first cup of coffee every morning.
My Liz Claiborne black leather mv croc attache bag. I bought it before I got my first teaching job 5 years ago. It was almost $100, and I almost didn’t buy it because I was so poor at the time…I’m glad I did…it just gets better the more I use it. I can’t imagine using any other bag for hauling all my papers around at school!
My husband bought me this handy little gadget from Lee Valley tools…..it pops the seal on new jars making them easy to open. I use it all the time, and seem to look for it whenever I’m in someone else’s kitchen.

Hmmm, I think it is currently a very cool ring I bought in New Paltz when I visited with my college girl friends about a month ago. I look at it and it makes me happy, both because it reminds me of that wonderful weekend, and because I love the graceful swirls of it’s design.
I have a tiny little frother I picked up at Ikea. Nothing fancy, but I love it, too :0)
My favourite thing is a bubble bar from Lush. So wonderful!
The Judy Jetson chair!
My Jeep ;o) I’ve gone so far as to tell my lovely teenage daughter that if she hurts it she’s dead meat – she’s now telling all her friends that I love my car more than I love her ;o)
…in my defense, it does have heated leather seats.
La Preferida coconut milk (when I can find it) since that makes the best ever pina colada! A good pina colada is one of my little things.
Should I bring a blender to Taos?
