Oh, come on. You know you got 'em. You have found the confessional. :D

Some of mine:
- watching old Disney movies (not the new, rubbery computer animation stuff)
- singing along with the songs in those old Disney movies
- reading books that are targeted at middle schoolers
- watching Arthur, a show I used to watch when I was five, with the kid I babysit for (while pretending to hate it but really loving it ;))
- eating a pint of ice cream while watching Gilmore Girls

Now it's your turn!
 
- watching Judge Judy. Don't you just love some of the excuses they come up with :D

- watching Recess, a show that I loved when I was younger.

-even though I know that they are filled with crap, I'm addicted to buying tabloid magazines. Nothing like a bit of celebrity gossip ;)
 
I used to watch "Passions". The sad thing is... I'm not part of their target audience. Thankfully that phase didn't last long.
 
Um...okay. Mine are:
Watching Disney/other children's movies (we rock, veggiedog! And I hate the new movies with no music!)
Kid's fantasy novels like Harry Potter and Bartimaeus and other similar things
Singing along with musicals until nearby people throw pillows at me
Burning incense until my parents think I'm smoking cigarettes or worse
Sappy romantic things and angst-ridden, tragic love stories (do these two things not mix well or something?)
Porcelain dolls and stuffed animals
*glances at list* Man, I never grew up, did I? ^^
 
i don't have any. if i like something i don't find anything guilty about. for instance i love the spice girls and celine dion and i don't care if people know that, or what it makes them think of me :)

(and you're not hung-up on capitals either YEH !!!!!)
 
Lip-syncing to the male voices in opera recordings.

Never doing any real cooking.

Ever.

Reading when I should be doing just about anything else.

The rest are not repeatable on an open forum.
 
Watching Rolie Polie Olie with my daughter. Enjoying some Rap and Hip-hop music, much to the embarrassment of my sons who ask 'How dare I like THEIR music?' :D
 
Dunking chocolate chip cookies in my coffee (I would never have DARED to do that when I was living with my parents!)
Having my cat cuddle up next to me in bed while I read
Having a glass of wine and a dip in the pool on hot days
Being the first in a newly changed bed

This isn't a guilty pleasure, it's more of a necessity. :cool:

Well, when I lived in England it was a necessity, but now that I live in a 'dry' county in Oklahoma :eek: it's a guilty pleasure :D

Oooh... do you enjoy wine also? I've often thought that would make a nice thread: Wine and book pairings? (Maybe there is. I'll check). Anyways I'm very new at wine, but I'm trying to learn. Of course "expensive" is a matter of opinion and expensive dosen't equal good. But... the title of the thread was "guilty" pleasures. Expensive for me (I'm on a bit of a budget since I spend all my money on books) is over $25.00, average is $11-14.00. I like Copolla's Diamond Claret, MadFish Cab/Mer blend, Toasted Head Cab. Other's I enjoy are Goats Do Roam (S. African) and Bull's Blood Cab

What do you enjoy? I'm always wanting to learn and try something new. Give me some suggestions if you have some. And thanks!
 
I will be busy for the next several days but I will list some of the wines that I enjoy, promise. I try to spend less than $10 a bottle for every day type drinking.
