the things they sell on tv

I was flipping through the guide on our TV one boring evening and saw a name on one of the home shopping channels that I thought was the chick from "Private Practice" so I clicked on it because it would bug me if I didn't solve this mystery.  I was thinking surely it's not really her...do celebrities show up on this thing?

But, oh apparently they do.

And It was her and it has nothing to do with what I'm about to tell you, I just felt the need to let you know how I ended up on one of this channel.  I don't want you worrying about me.  Rest assured that  I made a promise to myself long ago, that no matter how old I get I will never call in (as hard as it may be to resist) and give a phone review chat.  Nope, not going to be me.

But I do see how watching 5 minutes can turn into 30 because the celebrity and her overzealous sales lady were wrapping up their segment when they start chatting about the next segment.

The YONANA.

Now I'm intrigued.  For starters, please say it out loud.  It's hilarious to say.  Go on I'll wait.  Try to incorporate it into a conversation, it's even funnier.  And two, how long do you own it before you start hating bananas?

So I sat and watched the ENTIRE program before I came out of my Yonana coma. 

I'm going to resist my gadget fascination on this one, although I'm sure it's lovely.

Im just still mourning the failure of the NO NO! and don't know if I'll ever be able to trust again.

That Yonana is tempting, but my mom made me a banana no-cream ice cream just by putting sliced banana in the freezer then blending in a handy chopper with some peanut butter. Yummy!! We got the "recipe" from the Daily Puglet blog.
Love,

Too funny :) It is quite amazing the things made available to the public via television.

Gotta love America
