Life is like a box of chocolates...


For more than a dozen reasons do I enjoy the film (particularly this scene where a past is confronted) but nevertheless for that simple metaphor above. Though, if you keep eating out of the same box, you'll always know what you're gonna get.

I realize that we have celebrated several holidays since the last entry, but as promised, the results of our 99 cent Christmas holiday include the following:

USB plug lava lamp
delicious box of chocolates
beautiful picture frames
the perfect journal
great reads


...I know there is more, but unfortunately my short term memory does not allow me to recall all the wonderful goodies we exchanged Christmas morning. If anyone is considering a 99 cent Christmas, Hanukkah, or any other gift giving celebration with a budget in mind, beware...you may doubt yourself or the great love you have for your loved ones as you approach the register at the 99 Cent Store. My encouragement to you, is hold that head high! March to the register with pride and remember, no matter how costly, beautifully wrapped, or creative the gift may be - the simple fact is whether it's 99 cents or 99 dollars...it's about spending time with those you love.

Bottom Line.
