| Your "No, Don't Do That" Holiday Gift Giving Guide |
|
 |
|
I was asked to do an Oprah-esque "Best Gift" list for my blog and in the process of putting it together decided that a worst gift list would be much more entertaining (for me at least).
First up, this classy little dog purse that you can find in lots of different breeds HERE. |
| A copy of Hotel Rwanda on DVD. I can't really imagine a better movie to watch over and over again. |
| This holiday season, make your little lady smell like Rite Aid, y'all. |
| This polycarbonate cow print luggage set deeply scares me. What's more is that the "regular" price was $724.99. Yowza! |
| I know that swimsuits aren't a real popular holiday gift, but even so I just had to make sure that no one, ever, at any time gives a Wholesome Wear swimsuit to me, or anyone, for that matter. |

| I Hate Eating Vegetables |
|
|
|
| But, oddly enough, I love drinking them! Santa came a little early for us this month and I'm glad that he did because we are going to need all the help we can get when it comes to energy reserves. I had my eye on this particular juicer for a few months and it ended up going on major sale after Black Friday. |
| You are probably wondering why on earth a new juicer warrants a blog post, so perhaps I should start at the beginning. I seriously hate vegetables. I ate them when I was younger to please my parents and perhaps get dessert out of the deal. Which is more than I can say for my little brother. He always flat out refused and somehow scored a brownie anyway. Probably because he is, as my grandmother says, "the looker in the family." Anyway, when I got to college I don't think I ate a single vegetable unless it was an incidental casserole ingredient or fried in some manner. Now that I am older, I fake liking them to seem a bit more sophisticated and worldly but the truth is I'm still, just as I was at 8, making gagging noises in my head. You can't really get around the fact that they are insanely good for you though, not to mention that a strict meat and potatoes diet is sort of asking for cancer. So, enter juicer. You can't get more efficient than eating all of this in a glass: |
| Now here is the blog worthy part: a bunch of kale, parsley, spinach, sprouts, and an apple = AWESOME! Seriously, it is the best thing I've ever tasted. It makes no sense that this would appeal to my alarmingly childlike palate but it is utterly delicious. Not to mention it looks like a cocktail fit for a fairy princess. Here's to drinking your veggies. |
