Christmas Countdown - 2012

Maybe it's my tiny laptop screen and the low-res video, but the "multi" trees look like all blue and green except in the close-ups.

It looks like that on my tv too. The blue and green led lights are just overbearing.

I guess that shows how much attention I pay. I just assumed it was hosted by shoutcast.

Don't quote me, but I think it works like this: It's hosted by Shoutcast, but Radiotuna provides the embedded player.

that blue and green tree is incredible...

I just can't warm up to the palette of LED colors. I'll buy LEDs when they look like regular mini-lights, or when the gov't forbids all incandescents.

Yessss glitter coffeeee yabbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

It has holes that were meant to be there.:wink:

It would be embarrassing if one of those crew members wiped out on a scooter.

I bet Valerie is screaming at her kids right now..."I WAS UP AT 1:00AM HOCKING GLITTER STUFF.. BE QUIET OR I WILL NOT PUT OUT THE GLITTER ANGEL TTHIS CHRISTMAS..." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Binger]

Is it me.. or does QVC purposefully try to find the strangest looking children to advertise their toys.....

I've wiped out on one of the razor scooters before and it wasn't very fun. The wheels on these look really narrow. So one little rock is all it would take.

Good point. Most people won't be riding these on smooth studio floors and basketball courts!

That's what happens when they spend all of their time in the basement.

 

[Binger]

Pheww...so glad to be back! Thanks Jeff and Made!

 

[MerryCarey]

Must keep my computer speaker away from the phone. This netbook doesn't have a mute button ...

 

[made582]

I love to camp under the stars but I think that would just keep me awake.

Great idea on the Gingerbread and Snickerdoodles. They could also make a Pumpkin Spice!

Exciting Christmas candy news! and Fall candy too!

Name: Twix Sugar Cookie Minis
Brand: Mars
Description: With the combination of Twix chocolate and caramel paired with the nostalgic goodness of sugar cookies, the new Twix Sugar Cookie Minis could easily become Santa’s new favorite snack.
Introduction Date: November 2012
Notes: I’m often baffled at Mars for introducing all these limited edition flavors when I hear from so many people that they miss the Cookies n’ Creme variety. Anyway, I don’t see much difference between a shortbread and sugar cookie when it comes to including caramel and chocolate. I’d much prefer a Gingerbread Twix or maybe a SnickerdoodleTwix.

3 MUSKETEERS Brand Hot Cocoa with Marshmallow
Brand: Mars
Description: What’s better than hot cocoa on a cold winter’s day? Try new 3 MUSKETEERS Brand Hot Cocoa with Marshmallow Minis and find out! This new limited-edition holiday flavor may not warm the bones, but with its smooth and creamy goodness, it’s sure to satisfy holiday decorating and snacking this season.
Introduction Date: November 2012
Notes: 3 Musketeers has been the area where Mars has been throwing its muscle in the seasonal flavors. The previous 3 Musketeers Marshmallow for Easter 2011 was a bit lackluster. I’m not quite sure what this flavor will be, except less malty (is it possible for the current version of 3 Musketeers to be less malty) than the current version.

Name: Milky Way Caramel Apple
Brand: Mars
Description: Caramel apples are a Halloween tradition, and new MILKY WAY® Brand Caramel Apple Miniatures add a chocolate twist to this Halloween favorite. Combining the irresistible tastes of chocolate, rich and creamy caramel and apple, this new item brings a unique, new flavor to trick-or-treating, decorating and snacking.
Introduction Date: September 2012
Notes: These are coming out for Halloween, but will be around through the end of the year. I know that the apple and caramel flavor thing has been around for a while, but I have my doubts that this will taste realistic and not fake.
