I really could be stranded on a desert island with my purse and be alright. Everything I need is in there!

iPhone
I can’t live without it. I rarely use the phone, but check my email, Facebook and Twitter often.  And play Cooking Dash in the carpool line.

Juicy Couture Sunglasses
I’m really a vampire and hate sunlight.

4 Kinds of Lipgloss
Lips look better with a light shine.

Altoids, Dental Picks & a Tiny Disposable Toothbrush
For other people. When I point to their mouth and say “You need to take care of that”, I offer a solution.

Motrin, Tums & Band-aids
Someone in my family is ailing at any given time.

Hand Sanitizer & Kleenx
Germs!

Wipes: Shout & Wet Ones
Again for the family; they are messy.

Flip Cam
My son once had the funniest reaction to laughing gas at the dentist and I didn’t have my Flip, so I couldn’t record it; I never want to miss a show like that again.

25 “Frequent User” Store Cards
For eventual discounts, but I wish the retail world would come up with a better system; what a pain to carry these around.

An Extra Pair of Contacts
Just in case.

A Sharpie
You’d be surprised how much I use this or loan to others who need to permanently mark something.

3 Ritz-Carlton Pens
They are slim and write well.

A Hello Kitty Notepad
Despite the “Notes” feature on my iPhone, I like jotting down notes on real paper. And Hello Kitty is just cute.

Wallet
I get tons of compliments on my Betsey Johnson wallet; it’s very Rocker-Chick stylish.  Of course it carries my money, but also driver’s license, insurance cards, Chili Dawg’s i.d., business cards (Funkidivagirl, Lovable Labels and Mommy), insurance cards, library card, and membership cards (Zoo Atlanta & High Museum). I also have a Blockbuster card, but that is a dying business and I never use it.

Twizzler Nibs
Shhh…don’t tell my daughter.
