I actually loved it so much I went back and bought another one "just in case", then found on off brand one marked down to $10.00......and bought it!  But my original one is holding up well. I know I save a lot, and for me, I prefer hot cocoa to coffee most times, and places don't make it low fat and sugar free. Have fun with yours!

Let's see, 5 things I love that aren't my beloved Michelle, right?
1. My sweet Roamy dog who makes me smile and get out of bed and walk!
2. Hangin' out by the Pacific whenever I can
3. Having a pound of hardware not in my back any more
4. Dark chocolate (in moderation, of course!)
5. Giving and receiving the love and support of TRUE friends

5 things I'm loving right now...
1. My Treo 650 (see photo). I can no longer live without it. I've owned mine for over two years now and it is beat up as heck, but no, I refuse to get a new phone. I use it to read on the internet every day on the train, I use the calendar reminders to manage my daily schedule for everything from taking vitamins to deadlines to when my tv shows are on to meeting reminders, I use the camera all the time, and I absolutely will never again own a phone without a full keyboard.
2. Dune fragrance by Dior (see photo). I first purchased this in Austria right after reading and falling in love with the book "Dune" by Frank Herbert. I saw the fragrance in a store days after finishing the book and thought it was a sign, LOL! People always tell me they love the way it smells on me. Here is the official scent description -- "Dune is classified as a refreshing, oriental, woody fragrance. Dune for women possesses a blend of amber, wallflower as well as water notes of the fresh cool sea air."
3. Windex Multi-Surface Wipes. I keep a packet in the door of my car and use them all the time on windows, dashboards, steering wheel....
4. Milk. I drink it by the gallon every week. I could've sworn I was lactose intolerant immediately post-op, but that seems to have worn off sometime in my second month. Now, it is one of the key ways I get protein every day. I can get down 16 ounces in about 45 minutes, which is really fast for me.
5. http://www.pandora.com/ -- Pandora Radio, the Music Genome Project. It's free music online that you can customize to your tastes. You enter the name of an artist or song, and using a scientific method of determining the quality that the artist or song has, it programs a personal "radio station" of songs that are similar in type. If it starts to play a song you don't like, you press the button saying you don't like it, and the "radio station" learns from that and won't play songs that are similar to that disliked song. Same with songs that you tell it you like. (Here is more info about the Music Genome Project: http://www.pandora.com/mgp.shtml ) It is a great way to listen to free music as much as you want and I especially like it around the holidays since I don't own many holiday-themed cds. What can I say, I am cheap and too lazy to update my iPod! I set it up and play it during parties all the time. Right now I have 17 personal "radio stations" programmed around songs such as "Carol of the Bells", or "Mr. Brightside", and artists like "Beck", "Nina Simone", and "OK Go".

I went to this website and OMG it totally rocks!!! I put in a bunch of my fave musicians and it's uncanny at picking out other music that I love. Thank you so much for the info! I want to tell everyone about it now. This is the best thing I have discovered since Isopure.
