First up, coffee cup cozies. I'm currently trying to decipher a pattern so I can make my own. It probably won't happen for at least several months, but hey it's the thought that counts, right?

Okay, it's not exactly a secret I'm a coffee lover. So the next item in my favorite things list should not surprise you, at all. What is it? The ticket to pure delight. A Starbucks Gold Card. After several months of hard work, it finally paid off and my Starbucks Gold card is in the mail. The benefits are so amazing, it's totally worth getting one, if you drink coffee. This is what I get with my card:
- Free Select Syrups and Milk
Free Refills on Brewed Coffee or TeaFree Beverage with Whole Bean Purchase
Free Trial Offers
Free Drink Every 15 Stars
Personalized Gold Card

As most of you know, I am a runner. I am not one of those dyed-in-the-wool runners, but I still enjoy getting the feeling of accomplishment at the end of a long run/race. I do however, need good shoes to get me there and these are my favorite. They are a bit of a splurge, but taking good care of my feet is soooo important to me that I am willing to save the cash for them.

I have always loved yogurt and when I recently discovered Greek yogurt, I was really hooked. I tried a few different brands of the stuff and found one that I really like. Of course I still make mine most of the time (see my posting on the home page), but I will sometimes get a treat and buy the already prepared Greek yogurt. My favorite is honey-flavored from the Greek Gods brand.
So as I already mentioned, I am a runner. I typically train for distance runs of 7-13 miles. Because I need energy to carry me through (no, I can't survive on sheer willpower) I need to have some readily available sources of energy and these are what I reach for when I need a boost.
