The wheelchair sex videostrue marker of the impending holiday season is not the removal of Halloween decorations or the scent of $6 holiday candles wafting in the air.
It is, in fact, the annual drop of Oprah's iconic Favorite Things list, a compendium of stuff you should buy yourself and your loved ones in pursuit of a better, chicer lifestyle.
This year, Oprah has us considering expensive jars and small mansions for the neighborhood birds.
Here are a few other things we suddenly can't imagine our futures without:
1. A $69 chicken pie

2. A beautiful luxury home for birds you don't own

3. Four fancy chocolate bars for $50
