Yes they still make caruso curlers (I just saw them today) and Oh Henry bars. Your list consists mostly of food and beauty products...hmmm.

Jason said...

Whew!!!

Happy 100th!

Kira Joy said...

You're totally right mom. Half way through, I thought, wow, I care about how my face looks, but apparently not my butt.

Katrine said...

Your favorite things seem to be food and makeup that smells like food. You're my kinda girl!

Heidi & Dan said...

Hmmm. I find it interesting that your favorite things and guilty pleasures don't include PAUL. We see where your priorities are: food and make-up.

Paul said...

You have a lot of extra time on your hands at work Kira. I am pretty sure if her list were a hundred and one things I would have made the list.

ok, I am new to the BLOGGING world, I usually just write in journals, but I thought I would give this a shot, I was scrolling along and ran across you...I just have to say.... you are freaking adorable.

Have a blessed day!

See Kira, I knew we could be BFF"s. I loved your list and agree with most of it...except the fish stuff. I don't know much about Mary Kay either. I am a MAC girl. I think I will have to copy you when I turn 100. Great idea!

Kenna said...

Whoa, you're totally after my own heart. Food and makeup junkie. And a Costco junkie, which I am too.
