Liplicious from Bath and Body Works!

I was trying so hard to get down there, first the car going bust and then it snowing many, many feet and the bitter cold kept me from walking down to the bus stop and going there myself.

I finally told my mother of the plight I was in trying to get the two lip gloss flavors that I really, really wanted. She's so nice! She got them for me for my birthday present!

I have not yet decided which of the two flavors I love the most. Grape Soda or chocolate dipped strawberries! I will add an edit update when I realize which one is my true love!

On a side note, the Tutti Dolci lemon meringue lip gloss has not held up well past 1 year after opening and using a dozen or so times. It doesn't smell as nice anymore but is still servicable as a sweet tasting glitter-shimmery liquid lip gloss for protecting the lips from these icy gales we get in NY. I've also noticed it doesn't want to stay in one place either and it will drip. I've found that applying lipstick or chapstick lightly first and then the lip gloss over top stops this from happening.

Of the two chapsticks I bought last year, the skittles one actually smells the best still with a slight vitamin overtone, although it's turned itself into a slightly messing and slippery oily liquid-like lip gloss instead of it's original form as a chapstick. The wintermint one I bought from CVS brand has gone completely over to a stinky vitamin smell. I won't use it unless I cannot find anything else.

Best of 2006

In no particular order:

Larson's Heavy Duty Skin Care
My dad bought me this, I was suffering from extremely dry skin from over exposure to mineral spirits in the screen printing industry. It's great stuff, doesn't feel oily at all. I love it. A++

St. Ives
Apple Mist Whipped Silk, this stuff shows up at a drug store, a whole crate of it. Everyone in my hometown loves the scent. It's sold out within 48 hours. Very silky, smooth with a nice strong macintosh apple scent. It's great stuff we all love it.

Cepacol Throat Losenges
I discovered this at the Nurse Station in college. I had a bad, ultra sore throat. I was putting four Halls menthol tablets in my mouth every hour. This is the medicine for the extrodinarily bad sore throat. I like cherry and honey lemon flavors best. In addition I've found it exceptionally soothing to take one when I buy a package and then put the others in the refrigerator. Making them cooler amplifies the soothing effect on a red hot sore throat. Accidentally swallowing... your tummy will go icy numb for an hour and then the heart burn will hit.

Home of the ultimate comfort shoe
I discovered these last year. They are great. The padding is superior to other brands of shoe and I love it. If you do a lot of walking this may be the shoe for you. I've walked to college in them, to the bus stop and back home. My feet never hurt even after walking 8 city blocks. Where most shoes will let you down and leave you feeling sore and lame this one holds up to my standards.
I found my first pair on a reduced discount rack for $20.00 over at Walmart.

Best Hot Cocoa Ever
Swiss miss hot chocolate. I've tried other hot chocolates but nothing is as rich and velvety or mixes well with other sweet ingredients. I like to top this with real whipped cream and sprinkle in crushed candy cane dust and add a light sprinkle of cinnamon to flavor it.

Little boxes, lots of marvelous little boxes. I love boxes, I love facinating boxes with hidden locks, harmless finger traps and more. I stumbled upon this website today and was absolutely amazed.
