MUST HAVE!

Have you ever seen something you just had to have. I'm talkin' the kind of "thing" you daydream about owning for years. It was about five years ago at the Home Show that I saw it. I watched the demonstration....the vegetables, the fruit...whole apples....cantelope, seeds and all....entire carrots...pulverized into a flavorful, chocked full of vitimans elixir. I must have it!!! HOW MUCH DID YOU SAY IT COSTS? I COULD BUY A NEW COUCH FOR THAT PRICE or take an all inclusive trip to the Dominican Republic! Still, I fantasized about possesing that machine. Oh the healthy concoctions I would make! I'd get my five to seven fruits and vegetables out of the way each and every morning, all in one glass!! But how do I justify spending that amount of money on....a blender. But not just ANY blender...THIS is a VITAMIX!! The most powerful blender in the Universe. And it basically cleans itself! I'd love to tell you I saved and saved for the past five years to finally buy that blender but the truth is....I put it on my credit card. Now, I know what you're thinking, "Julie, you really need to get a life" or "it's people like you, Julie, who are ruining our nation's credit" or "how the hell much did you pay for that blender?". OK, I don't know what you're thinking but I can tell you, I'M no longer thinking about that blender....I'M using it every single day and if I'd bought it five years ago, I'D PROBABLY HAVE IT PAID OFF BY NOW!!!
