A Few of My Favorite Things
Today, Oprah touted her famed "Favorite Things" episode in which she gave all sorts of goodies to volunteers from Hurricane Katrina. There were some really touching stories, and all her guests were so excited for their awesome gifts. So I started thinking, what are my favorite things? People and experiences come to mind when I think of "favorites." But there are a few things that I get real fired up about. I don't have the money or shopping time that Oprah has, but there are a few things that I LOVE!Long and Lean Jeans from the GAP

I love, love, love Q-doba! I would add 1) black bean nachos w/ the works from Baja Fresh and 2) Cold Stone's cake batter custard. Did you get to watch Oprah's show? I missed it and always love that episode! Very cool that she invited the Katrina volunteers....
I want to add:
lip finity
Starbucks Mocha Malt Frappachino
Old Navy boot cut jeans
OPI "I'm not Really a Waitress" Nailpolish
Cold Stone Cake Batter ice cream
On The Border's Chicken Burrito
I don't know how excited I would be to come to you girls' shows. Ooh. . . new lipstick! yes. ahh. . . Satin Hands. Yipee! Sure, I'd want Nikki there though.
How about -
A new Toyota Tacoma for everyone!
Gift certificates to Tower Records for new CDs!
Taste of Abilene Coffee!
Shopping spree at Victoria's Secret! (not for me, but . . . )
New 'Atomic' Skis
Video ipods

I have to agree with what most folks have already listed, here's what I'll add...
Foamy soap
Sonic's diet coke with vanilla
Lee's One True Fit jeans
Stilletto pointy toed shoes, boots, anything
Ready to cook tortillas (they are already rolled out so you just have to stick them on a hot skillet for a minute and you'll swear you're south of the border)
