I want them all!!
Momiji Dolls are a series of collectible friendship dolls. They may be small but they're big on style! Each doll comes in a see-through bag with its own collectors card. Inside the base of each doll there's a tiny card to write a teeny message.
Each doll is approx 8-9cm tall and made from heavyweight resin.

I "borrowed" these from my FRIEND, AB's blog.. and did a bit of editing.. but the sentitment is the same! Enjoy!!
"When I was little, I used to believe in the concept of one best friend, and then I started to become a woman. And then I found out that if you allow your heart to open up, you could find the best in many friends. One friend is needed when you're going through things with your man. Another friend is needed when you're going through things with your mom. Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be. One friend will say let's cry together, another let's fight together, another let's walk away together. One friend will meet your spiritual need, another your shoe fetish, another your love for movies, another will be with you in your season of confusion, another will be your clarifier, another the wind beneath your wings. But whatever their assignment in your life, on whatever the occasion, on whatever the day, or wherever you need them to meet you with their gym shoes on and hair pulled back, or to hold you back from making a complete fool of yourself ... those are your best friends. It may all be wrapped up in one woman, but for many it's wrapped up in several... one from 7th grade, one from high school, several from the college years, a couple from old jobs, several from online *hint, hint*, on some days your mother, on some days your neighbor, on others your sisters, and on some days your daughters. Whether they've been there 20 minutes or 20 years."

'True' Friendship
None of that Sissy Crap
Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, But never actually come close to reality?
Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship.
You will see no cutesy little smiley faces on this card-
Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship.
1. When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.
2. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
3. When you smile -- I will know you are plotting something that I must be involved in.
4. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
5. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.
6. When you are confused -- I will use little words.
7. When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have.
8. When you fall -- I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.
9. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. "Why?" you may ask;
"because you are my friend."
Friendship is like peeing your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel the true warmth.
***************************************************************************
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a season. LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant Thank you for being a part of my life,whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

So, I'm part of an online board of girls and we all met while planning our weddings in Las Vegas. We did a "Secret Santa" exchange and I just got my gift today! It is SOOO yummy! D yelled at me a bit because he thought I bought more chocolate online! LOL! Then he found out it was from one of my "board girls" and that made it all better! Anyway... I'm off to get fatter with my chocolate and almonds! YUMMMMMMM

Today I decorated my mini holiday tree in about 5 minutes :) I'm very happy with the results! For two people who don't really celebrate the holidays besides the giving and receiving of presents and the trips to see family... Our tree is mighty sparkly! Don't be jealous... for about 30 bucks and a trip to Pottery Barn and Borders you could be the lucky owner of a similar tree. Happy Holidays to all!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Instead of going on and on about how I am thankful for my hubby:
my family:
my friends:
my business, etc... I figured I would share some thanksgiving humor instead. Enjoy!!
