| The 13 Guilty Pleasures of Ms. Bizarre.
1. Quacker Factory. I simply cannot help watching Jeanne Brice peddle some of the tackiest clothing I have ever seen, thanks to QVC. Ok, if you're a kindergarten teacher, well then I can almost understand the appeal. However, I advise all grown women to put down the pink flamingo cardigan with the bird button covers, the contrasting neon green shell, and matching stretch capris, because these fashions look good on no one. Trust no woman whose inspirations seem to stem from a Miami trailer park. 2. That caramel dip that is sold next to the apples. I have to buy the light kind now because I'll end up eating the whole tub. It only comes into the house once in a great while, because I find myself fighting the urge to sit on the sofa with It and a spoon. 3. Art supplies. I own more than I will ever be able to use, but I can't stop buying them. My lastest purchase: glass paint. I just can never find the time to actually paint the damn glass. 4. Passions. I've watched this soap on and off since the first year it was on the air. I have no idea WHY I still watch this, but I can't seem to stop. 5. Anything with a cream sauce. Bonus points if the sauce is loaded with garlic and/or butter, and is served with something that might very well hold all my calories for a lunar month. 6. Sex toys. Especially the fact that I get a bigger kick out of picking them out and buying them than I do from using them. Ebay has become an even bigger godsend after the move to the the styx. 7. White wine. Reislings and Vouvrays and Sauvignon Blancs on MY! I used to be a staunch "red only" gal, but have recently realized that there is more to white than koolaid like sweet concotions, and played out chardonnay's. 8. Anderson Cooper. He's the only reason I watch the news anymore. Smart, funny, shiney, and gnome-like… he's the Uber-anchor. 9. Hubig Pies. They'e a local confection in New Orleans. They're basically a fried pie, but they come in all these different flavors (my favorite being the coconut pudding one), and they have this thin icing coating them that is simply to die for. They have all the fat you need for a week, but they're sooooooooooo good. I have literally bought them and then hidden the wrappers so no one would know about my Hubig addiction. 10. KFC Mashed potatoes. What in the hell do they do to those things that make them so good? I don't understand the allure… but I do understand that if you put a tub of KFC mashed potatoes in front of me, you will soon have an empty tub. Even bigger guilty pleasure: KFC potatoes with Popeyes gravy and crispy chicken bits. 11. Ebay. I am an ebay junkie. I sell alot and I buy alot. I just realized that an auction for somethng I don't really need just ended, and boy am I pissed. 12. Wax. I love waxing my legs, face, etc… I don't know what it is about pulling a million tiny hairs from your skin all at once, but I have so much fun doing it, I make a day of it. 13. Self-love. Yep, I said it. Allow your mental image of me to be forever tarnished. Links to other Thursday Thirteens! (leave your link in comments, I’ll add you here!) |

Quacker Factory lady is delightful, but you’re so right about the clothing! I have an aunt who loves it, though. But…ICK!
Anderson Cooper. He’s ADORABLE!
I was having KFC mashed taters last night thinking, gee these have a “funny” taste. My kids love them, though.
Happy T13!

What do they do to those KFC potatoes? They are pretty good, for being instant.
May 25, 2006 at 2:19 pm
I’d be VERRRRY skeptical about buying things like that off Ebay LOL!
