I'll show you my love list, if you show me yours!

As you all know, on viewpoints.com, we will each have the chance to rant and rave about our favorite and not-so-favorite things.

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I thought I would give you a snapshot of some of the things I LOVE and plan to review at Viewpoints. This is a sneak peak. What's on your Top 10 list?

1. My favorite indulgence- Hot Stone Massages
2. One of my favorite hotels- Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego
3. Favorite places to shop- Fox's and Cynthias (both in Chicago)
4. My trusty winter gear- UGG boots
5. My undeniably reliable cars- Lexus and Toyota
6. The baby formula that put my daughter to sleep- Organic Baby Formula
7. My alma mater- Northwestern University
8. My amazing doctors that I would follow anywhere- Dr. Kalensky and Dr. Gupta
9. My computer and wireless router that I can't live without
10. My home gym- that I attempt to use 2-3 times per week (and the awesome TV that helps me pass the time!)

I would review my husband and kids too...but that probably wouldn't be too cool. (well, they would be 5 star!) Happy Valentine's Day!

What's on your love list?

1. My favorite travel destinations. I write every night up but I like it in review form and don't do that now so I'm looking forward to it.
2. Fitness equipment of course.
3. Hanna's pet pocket - great invention!
4. My iPod which I've been too scared to review elsewhere.
5. Most of the higher ed institutions in my family- 6
6. A horrible doctor in Florida!
7. My new computer which I love.
8. My Dansko shoes which I may love as much.
9. My skin system which I may love even more than 8 and 9.
10. A couple of spas I've been to.

Jolie, great list ! (My 73-year-old mom just bought UGGs and is love with 'em).

Here's a peek at my Viewpoints.com Love List, which extends two beyond Top Ten:

1. Cat Charmer - the only toy that keeps my cats occupied week after week
2. TIVO Series 2 DVR - the electronic device which truly set me free
3. Mandarin Oriental Miami - where luxury meets hip, service is prrrr-fect, and views are out of this world!!!
4. Melita Express Kettle – couldn't start my day without it; can't burn the house down
5. MIGUN massage bed with "far infrared light" – couldn't END my day without it!
6. Knorr's mole' sauce in a box – quick, high-intensity flavor for a great Mexican meal
7. Weather.com – for packing, armchair traveling, & knowing an elderly relative's situation
8. 24 – the fastest, most frenetic, mostly-realistic edge-of-your-seat hour on TV
9. Smooth Jazz All Star Cruise – a jaw-dropping week of interaction & concerts!
10. Tahitian Noni juice - has kept me flu-free for 4 years, and also helps my allergies
11. Prevage, by Elizabeth Arden - the smoothest, silkiest skin care product I've ever come across, and it helps fight aging
12. The movie "Babel" - which explores the pathos of human existence with a global script and delicious cinematography.

I am: a part-time hedonist, tennis player, multi-tasker, frequent traveler, spicy- food lover, & film junkie.

I'm betting that Babel will win best picture. jo
