Celebration Time!

Break out the confetti and cake -- it's my birthday!

And to celebrate, *I'm* giving away the pressies. :) From now until Friday at midnight Pacific time, everyone who posts on my blog will be put in a drawing for a prize. Maybe more than one!

So post away. You could be a winner!

Today's topic: Presents! What's the best present you ever received? (Or, conversely, what's the best present you ever gave?)

Thursday Thirteen #7 -- Wedding Edition!

THIRTEEN THINGS I'D WANT ON MY BRIDAL REGISTRY

Nope, I'm not getting married. (My husband of twelve years might object!) But the daughter of a family friend is getting hitched this weekend, and at the bridal shower we got talking about how, after a certain point in your marriage, you really need a second shower just to cycle out all the old and worn-out household items.

So I got to thinking -- what would I want to register for? Here's my list of thirteen:

1. New linens. This one from DKNY is a nice, peaceful bed set.

2. Big, fluffy, thick, towels.

3. And how about bathrobes that match?

4. A Cuisinart.

5. A new set of corningware that actually matches.

6. A set of martini glasses. Because it's depressing having friends over for cosmos and having to drink them out of Wiggles tumblers.

7. A towel heater, because nothing's better than a warm towel on a cold morning!
8. A new vacuum.

9. Pillows! Lots of 'em!

10. Oven mitts and towels that match.

11. New picture frames.

12. Table linens.

13. A chandelier for the dining room. Because the previous owner took the chandelier, left the crystal base, and put a bedroom fixture on it. Bleah.

So how about you? What would be on your list?
