My Secret Santa is the Best!!!!
Thank you so much, Heather, aka Tungsten35! I was home today tidying up and getting out all the Xmas decorations *and* setting up the tree which we bought last night. After everything was all set up and looking good I padded down to check the mail, s

$15 off $20 code for hsn
Found on another board: 152080 Valid through 02/04 I haven't used this code myself. I'm hoping for inspiration from AF. I'd wanted to use this on a L'Occitane purchase, but I can't find L'Occitane there. chillled

My secret Santa package
I got my Secret Santa package today from Verna and I *love* it! She sent me the Too Faced A-Lister Neutrally Naughty palette. The colors are absolutely perfect -- Flushed Blush in Oye-Vey; Duo Eyeshadows in Gorge & Weezie, Bon Bon, and Pop Rock; Sing

What jewelry with my dress?
Longtime lurker here with a dilemma.... I am wearing a short black dress to an event next month. It has an empire waist, low sweetheart neckline, black on black satin beaded bodice. I was thinking maybe a "Victorian" style necklace sort of along this

Thanks Secret Santa!
I got my Santa package today! My secret Santa was none other than Anne in Sweden! Anne sent lots of fun items, most of which I could never find in the states. She sent: samples of Burt's Bees hand salve, coconut foot creme and Wings of Love lipstick

Thanks to SS TOK!
What a treat! Took the day off work to go shopping in the nearest city (250km away) with a good friend and to pick up another friend who has moved away but flew back for our hospital's Christmas party tomorrow night. Had a great day and then it got e

Thank you Santa Nnaesor! :)
I got my Santa package! :) It was WAY exciting, after a week of being sick with the flu, and then a few days back at work, exhausted. My Santa was Roseann, Nnaesor, and she got me a wonderful smelling package from Bath and Body Works! Oh, how I wish

the UPS man cometh
and brought me a BIG box from Donald Pliner! WAY Cool!! It was my new boots from the store that I had just ordered on Wed!! YAY and they are way cool. Darker than I remember and better looking too, I immediately tried one on. Thinking heck these look p

Santa made and early stop in Canada!!
I just got home from a hectic day and found a box (too big to fit in my mailbox ) on my front porch. Now since I rarely order anything on-line, I knew it had to be from my Secret Santa! :-D This the first year I've been able to participate and could

What's on your tree?
I have been looking at Christmas tree decorations while out shopping with friends the past few days. I really saw no visible trend in colors or styles. I know you all dress yourselves beautifully! How do you "dress" your tree?

Happy Birthday, Trilby!
Just a brief public acknowledgement of my bestestest AF pal's birthday. May today be riddled with PMSUs, the fruits of the Caspian Sea, egg yolks, baubles from Tiffany, and more René Mancini than anyone has ever seen in one lump. As well as the eminent

SS caryperk rules!
Got my SS this a.m. all the way from Oregon to NJ. And well worth the trip! Caryperk39 sent the loveliest gift in the loveliest wrapping and I'm thrilled to death - it's a MAC e/s palette with four shades that I'm dying to try (well, I actually couldn

Very OT Beyblades
One of my children wants Beyblades of course, and so far, every kind I've ever bought has needed to be assembled (with pieces missing) or breaks within two days. Do any mothers out there have any inside information on the best Beyblades for a young ch

Thank you Santa!
My gift from my Santa Amy arrived yesterday, and what a pure delight it was!! When I opened the box, I felt like a kid again - so many things, each wrapped individually very thoughtfully. I got: delicious aniseed candy box, a blood red oranges/clover

Santa is from California!
Audrey (ahmward) knows me so well throughout the years that even though I hadn't posted any SS hints she knew what to get for me. A Cavallini & Co travel journal, and a Mistral travel candle in Vanille Abricot will definitely fit into my luggage (leavi

Designer Purse knockoff sites-what's quality?
I've looked at the sites below, recommended by some newsgroup acquaintances (on another board). Your Secret Source is more expensive than the other two, but claims better quality. A couple of posters were happy with purchases on other two sites.

Crisco as body lotion?
Anyone tried this? I work with a 40 year old woman with gorgeous skin, and that's what she says she uses (not on her face) and swears by it for dry skin - says her dermatologist told her to use it. Is she putting me (not out of the question, knowi

What fun holiday clothing have you bought recently?
Sorry if this is an existing thread which I somehow spaced out on. I have 2 poodles, and have a weakness for stuff with poodles on it, as long as it's not overly cutesy. On a "let's go try on stuff we can't really afford" trip with friends to Nord
