Favorite Things

I am not Oprah and I don't play her on TV.  I do admit I was a slightly obsessed fan, even having the honor of being an audience member once.  I also admit to getting slightly depressed every year when she'd kick off the holiday season with her 'Favorite Things' episodes.  Recently, a friend got to visit the 'Favorite Things' set -- she wasn't an audience member and didn't receive anything so I didn't have to be jealous of my best friend or anything super selfish like that.........Ahem,...........but I digress.

Nester is hosting a 'Favorite Things' party and I hate to miss out on a party. And now that Oprah is off the air and all.......I figure we need to carry on the tradition, right?
