# 1 ON a princess POSH LIST - Neiman Marcus 2011 fantasy gifts

OH BOY! This time of year I REALLY DREAM BIG.  The  2011 Neiman Marcus Christmas book is out.  But don’t get me started.  LET’S GET STARTED!!!! 

What am I talking about?  The 85th edition of N.M.’s annual  “let me light my money on fire” catalog.  This is the WISH LIST OF ALL WISH LISTS.   About half the items are under $250, but THAT stuff’s all waste not want not, as in WANT NOT!!! Here are the ones that count.  As in Count, Prince, King.

This year,  I’m not jonesing  for the most expensive item:

HIS & HER make-em-dance fountains from WET for a wet willy million.  (WET is the creme de la creme of state-of-the-art fountain fabulousity.)  No, I’m not all washed up.  I just don’t have enough towels.

NOR shall I choose the $250,000 Hacker-Craft Speed boat that’s on it’s high horse High Output 425-horsepower engine.  That was a tough choice, see’n as it’s got a  monogrammed humidor.

A YURT!
