1. Orange creme Frappucino - Every spring I anxiously check my local Starbucks to see if they’ve introduced their summer flavored frappucino drinks yet. I don’t drink coffee, so I look forward to this smoothie-like drink. Last summer the banana creme was my weekly treat. I call it a treat because they aren’t exactly low fat or for those budget conscious people. I have to limit myself to Sundays, when I go there for coupons. This year, they have the orange creme flavor. Just like a creamsicle. Yum!
2. USB port - This pocket sized device has made my professional life so easy. I save all my files from my home computer on it, go into the office, plug it right into the computer, print, and viola. It saves me from having to print everything on my home computer. Ah! Technology.
3. African Violet fertilizer - I finally found a plant the cats won’t eat. I was starting to think this plant was just like my peace lilly, in that it only bloomed in the store. I got it home and sure enough the blooms died off a few days later and it hasn’t bloomed since. Well, after a little digging around on the trusty ‘ol internet, I found out about this liquid crack for my beloved African Violet plant. I’ll be dammed if I didn’t see little flower buds less than a week later.
4. Dust Buster - This bad boy is another piece of technology that has made my life so much easier. We use it for little things around the house when we’re feeling too lazy to get the big vacuum out. It’s wall-mountable charger prevents it from taking up a lot space. It’s easy to clean and I’m always surprised at the size of items it vacuums up.
5. Edy’s Cookies-n-Cream Loaded ice cream - Really no jokes necessary that 2 of the 5 things I love right now are food related. I could have done a top ten list for that alone. In a mug with some milk added to it is how I prefer my ice cream, while watching tv. I can’t say that I always stick to the no more than 2 hours before bed concept though. You better believe I’m going to stock up at the store this week. It’s Buy One Get One.

I knew there was a reason why we get along. LOVE all of your top 5s, esp the Dust Buster. Those things rock. I actually asked for a 2nd one for Christmas last year.
