Favorites

For a while now, I've been thinking of doing some posts about some of my favorite products around the house. The stuff I've tried and loved and bought over and over again. Specifically, I have wanted to tell you about a particular product that I really, really love. Although, saying "really, really love" doesn't seem quite appropriate for this product.

I've wondered what you might think of me if I posted about this. If you're conservative and lady-like you just might think to yourself, "Well I never! This gal needs some class! Posting about such personal issues on the world wide web!" If you don't already know that I'm a loon, well... you really don't know me that well. If you don't know that when I was in college Jodi and I used to drive around town screaming the F-bomb at the top of our lungs you just might be shocked by this. But if you're smart, which I know you all are, you'll listen up! With that, I apologize for taking so long to tell you about it. I wanted to post it long ago. I have done you, my sisters, a disservice. So here goes....








Have you used these!?!?
(Click here for more information)


If you haven't, you are missing out! You've been robbed! Now, maybe I have waited so long to tell you about these that you have all discovered them for yourselves and are all happy little Pearl users. But if I can convert even one of you, it will all have been worth it.

I have thought long and hard about this. And here are my conclusions. When it comes to such matters as these - all frugality, "green-ness", social consciousness etc. goes out the window. Just go right ahead and pile your garbage bins high with plastic if it means you get to use these babies. In short, and without getting too graphic: they go in great, do their job great and come out great. But, I am told, only when you want them to come out. (Having not birthed children, I don't have some of the problems some of you have shared with me. *ahem* Not naming names, just sayin')

So go out and buy them for yourselves, buy them for your friends, buy them for your daughters! I bought some for my mom as a gift. She loved 'em. So GO! Go now!


*Confession: I know that story about Jodi and me doesn't really fit. I've just been looking for a way to tell you all about it. Sorry Jodi. You can go ahead and post pictures of me with short hair and overalls now.....

Am I one of those nameless people! :o) Never tried them, hoping nursing will keep my little friend away for quite some time.... then I will try, just for you!

Jodi said...

HA HA HA!!! Short hair and overalls. That's good stuff. And as I recall, that wasn't the only word we used to scream as loud as we could....

Alright, as soon as the pipes start working again, I will try. :)

I love your out of character stories.

I'm content with the 7th Generation tampons from Trader Joe's, but if I ever decide to go deluxe, I'll take your advice.

Leslie said...

7th Generation tampons? Now that's in the spririt of "reuse and recycle"!

Melinda Cool said...

Won't SSC let Lynden-ites recycle plastic? I think used tampon tubes in the recycling might just send some people over the edge though.

My question: do they carry them at Costco? I think I buy mine only a few times a year...thanks to Costco bulk.

Melinda - You're hilarious. They do carry them at Costco! Hooray!

Mom - See - you really weren't speechless. I didn't believe you for a minute.

Jodi - You're right. How could I have forgotten the other word? Sarah (our other roommate) was so disgusted by us.

That is one of the positives of pregnancy, I had forgotten about how much worse it makes... that. After four anyway. Maybe after five everything will fall out and it won't matter anymore.

:) I always love your favorites. I want to hear about others too.

Rebecca M said...

Ooh- is it really possible that "everything will fall out" after five?

And this post made me laugh, Cutzi! I'm glad for your willingness to share- about yourself and others! I'm looking forward to funny pics of you from Jody.
