Upcoming Purchases

Well, I'm going to need to make 2 purchases in the upcoming future, the first one is for my taxable account, the second is for my 401k conversion to an IRA.  I think I pretty much know what I want to purchase for my taxable account, unless there are drastic changes between now and the middle of next week.  For the 401k conversion, I was thinking of creating an IRA at a discount brokerage and buying a few blue chip dividend stocks.  It will be a while still, but does anyone have any thoughts?  I was thinking along the lines of JNJ, PG, MCD, etc.  Which ones are good buys right now?
