My Favorite Things Part 2

Ok, I guess this is another of my favorite things posts. I finally found a comfortable bra that fits well and even washes well. I bought the first one about two months ago, so I've had some laundry experience with them. I've bought beautiful bras in the past that looked great until you washed them twice. But now I have my favorite bra, and it's made by Vanity Fair.

I also LOVE this program that allows you to journal and keep it online and private.It's called Efficient Diary. Before, I had "It's Personal" but it was pretty much just for text. This one lets you put pictures, colors, links, files, etc in it. I use it every day. And it's nice to have a place to say anything I want. I asked my son, the computer whiz, and he said it's very secure.

Now for my new favorite book. It's called The Help. If you haven't read it, you have to. You will laugh and cry reading this, and you won't be able to put it down. It's about Southern women and their maids, but it's told by the maids. So you get to hear what they think about their employers, and it makes for great reading. I've read it twice already.

And this is my absolute favorite green tea. I drink it straight and it tastes better than any I've had. I saw a television spot on the Today show that said people who drink green tea lose more weight than people who are dieting and don't drink green tea. So guess what I drink all the time. :-0

Here is my favorite new website. I loved How to Look Good Naked when the show was on. It has Carson from Queer Eyes, helping women feel good about their bodies. One of the most interesting parts of the show was when he took a woman into a group of women and had her sort them into who was larger than her, and who was smaller (as far as hip size). She always thought she was bigger than she was. I think this site has full episodes you can watch.

Twenty tea bags for $28.00? It better taste good!

I'm reading The Help now and love it. I think it will be one of those books I keep forever.

Well, I'm going to try the bras. I already have one from Vanity Fair I love, and these look a little nicer.
I have a Barnes and Noble gift card, so I'll check out The Help.

Merry Christmas!
