Kids! My 17-year-old niece came over tonight to drop off some gifts she purchased at her grandmother's behest and suddenly (on December 21st, mind you!) we have a list of things for her and her sister that we hadn't even come close to thinking of. Good thing, too, or they might both have ended up with cubic zirconia or worse.
Posted by Linkmeister at December 22, 2004 12:01 AMRemember when Cubic Zirconia first became popular...seems like it was far more expensive than now. Prices have dropped on it...but it does come close to resembling the real thing. But of course, "diamonds are still a girl's best friend"!
