Target (and turkey) love
Ladies and gentlemen, I have a confession to make. I have never bought anything from Target.
*collective gasp*
Until today. You see, there is no Target in New York. Well, there is one in the Bronx, but it is a bit of a hike, and there's a Target boat that floats up the Hudson at some point...but I like to be able to make a quick exit when I'm shopping. No boats for me.
So I ordered two pairs of boots from Target.com!!! Yay. They arrived today. One is a pair of black weatherproof boots with puffy tops. These will bring me so much pleasure when New York is transformed into a snowy/muddy swampland and jumping over puddles becomes a pedestrian sport. The other boots are Uggs...I can feel Liz cringing, all the way from D.C....but they're soft and cozy. I know she can find it in her heart to forgive me.
Also, my latest issue of Yoga Journal told me about adopting turkeys. The Farm Sanctuary rescues them and for $20, you can sponsor one. They send you a photo, biography and everything ;) The article included a gratuitous picture of a lamb snuggling with a turkey. Of course I couldn't resist. My turkey is named Sunflower.

I didn't know Target sold Uggs. You learn something new every day.
I'm nuts for Target. I was there yesterday, in fact!
Oddly, I had never thought of a turkey as snuggly before.
liz - well, i guess they're knockoffs, since they're only $25 :) i think they're cuter than the real thing, though.
bdogg - that would be cool! sadly, it's just the subway that gets you to the bronx one. the boat is a separate thing; it comes to the city sometimes, in the summer i think, so people can shop there and not have to go all the way up to the bronx.
suzy - i want a super target! i never did either, but the photo with the lamb did the trick ;)
I am proud of you.
They will not let me adopt a turkey. PETA regularly pickets my house.
Do you mean to say that there is a Target boat that you can get onto that will float down the river while you shop??? That may be the coolest thing I've ever heard.
How sweet that you adopted a turkey. :P
You can only imagine the turkey biography I am writing in my head.
p.s.-I actually was happy with her picking McDreamy. Finn's statement was right, he's totally going to break her heart again, but I just love them together. I know, I know...I'll prolly be eating by words by the end of the season, but still!
