Favorite Guilty Pleasure: Classic/Cheesy Movies from the 80's and 90's on Instant Netflix
This past Christmas weekend/holiday post week I've been watching so many classic and yes some cheesy movies from the 80's and 90's on Instant Netflix! It's a guilty pleasure for sure! Some of this weeks picks included:
Happy Friday everyone! Christmas Eve is tomorrow. It came so quickly! I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and hope they have a wonderful holiday! Check out this weeks Friday Favorites!
1. Favorite Song: My Favorite Things (Sound of Music)
While it was never conceived as a Christmas song, the wintertime imagery of some of the lyrics has made "My Favorite Things" a popular selection during the holiday season, and it often appears on seasonal albums and compilations. This was always one of my favorite scenes in the Sound of Music. It's very fitting for my blog as well. ;)
2. Favorite movie: White Christmas
I love watching classic Christmas movies during the holiday season this is by far my favorite. It's definitely a classic! So many great songs and dance numbers! love old Hollywood.
3. Favorite quote:
At Christmas time everyone is a little nicer and little more giving. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone could always have the Christmas spirit?
Happy Friday Everyone! Can you believe it, Christmas is one week away! Hope everyone is ready! I'm officially done with all my wrapping! Enjoy this week's Friday Favorites!
Favorite Application: Virtual Fireplace/Yule Log
What's better than an actual fireplace for the holidays if you don't have one? A virtual fireplace or during the Christmas season a virtual yule log! If you're like me and have a Sony Google TV, Roku player, or Instant Netflix than you can have a crackling fireplace/yule log in your home. On my Google TV it's an application you download. Yep folks there's an app for that. On the Roku player it's on the holiday channel. On instant Netflix it's called Fireplace for Your Home. With each device you can have a just a crackling fireplace/yule log, or one that plays Christmas music. So bust out some hot chocolate and marshmellows and enjoy a virtual fireplace/yule log!
Favorite Treat: Fruity Pebble Treats
Do you love Rice Krispies but want something just a little sweeter? Then these treats are for you! I made these this week and thought they were perfect for Christmas since they are so colorful like Christmas lights. I got a little creative and used Christmas cookie cutters in the shape of a Christmas tree, gingerbread man, and snowflake. The extra leftover treats I cut them into squares and rolled them into balls. Then, I dipped them in white chocolate and sprinkled them with leftover Fruity Pebbles. I also inserted lollipop sticks in them. Who doesn't love anything on a stick?
Favorite Memory: Old 8mm Christmas Home Movies
There's nothing like Christmas when you're a kid. This week my favorite memory was Christmas in the 80's when I was a little girl. Here is some footage from my families old 8mm movies from two Christmas years in the 80's of my sister and I. I can still remember how much I loved that Monchichi monkey doll! Remember those? I miss when Christmas was like this!
Favorite laugh: Dancing With An Ipod In Public: Christmas Edition
This youtube video has gone viral! This guy goes around a mall dancing with his ipod to Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas! It is simply A-MAZING! He's my new hero. I dare you not to smile! Mariah Carey also saw this video and tweeted the guy back about it!
Happy Friday everyone! Hope you're all having a great day! We were lucky enough to get a dusting of snow this morning here! Sadly it's all melted already. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend! Here's this week's Friday Favorites.

To think Zac Efron is a cutie when you're 33yrs old (did you not see the pics of him at the New Years Eve premiere?)
To cry over a corny Christmas movie on the Hallmark channel
If you had to close your eyes during two scenes of last night's American Horror Story.....which I did( why do I watch that before I go to bed again?)
To want a huge snowfall to come already! Come on Chicago!
To eat all the marshmellows out of the hot chocolate before taking a sip
To sit in the dark with only the light from your Christmas tree lights and laptop screen while writing this post
"Basically, Im not a "perfect girl".. but when I think about it and take a step back, I realize how lucky I am to have my life and that maybe I just like being *Imperfect*". I found this quote a couple years back and it's now my life motto. I mean really is anyone perfect? No. It took me awhile to be comfortable in myself.... in my imperfections. Now I embrace it. Anyone else who can't handle them, it's there problem and not mine. It's a lesson I guess I had to learn with age. I'm just a girl, maybe like you living her life one day at time, I just look different on the outside. I have a tracheotomy. I'm not defined by what's outside, but what's inside. Check out my blog and discover what's inside.
