Love the list!

I had forgotten about Jean Nate!
Thanks to you the commercial will be running through my head all night - "Jean NATAY! Jean NATAY!"
(I'm having 70's flashbacks!)

Erin -

Sorry. Really it's that commercial rather than the smell that makes me dislike that perfume so much. Remember the large puff that came with the powder?

So I get the eyebrows comment. My hairdresser and I call them my antennas. But I think u need to add jeggins. I stupidly tried them on and went into a deep depression for days.

Joni said...

Tracy-

Jeggings definitely should have been included.

Although Steven Tyler from American Idol would disagree. He loves his. : )
