Wednesday Faves ON Wednesday! Sic ‘Em!

Image
  I love it when I actually do my Wednesday Faves on Wednesday! I almost dedicated this week’s Faves to people, and I may do just that in the next few weeks, but for now we are going to go with these! 1) Can you spy that tiny little pill cup  in the center of my photo? I believe it was cut from a bottle. While it is supposed to hold soy sauce (or something of the like), I am using it as a hack for a pill cup. I take two pills first thing in the morning, and this little idea has actually changed my morning (and my attitude). I put the two pills in the cup at bedtime so I don’t even have to think about it in the morning. I know, it kind of sounds silly, but it has been game changing! (And I’m not even embarrassed about it!) No more mix ups or totally forgetting to take my pills. Try it! 2) I love these Summersalt The Do-It-All High Rise 7/8 Leggings ! I think I’ve tried every legging under the sun. These have the perfect amount of “hold you in” and coverage. And, BONUS: I’m not ...

Friday Faves = Wednesday Faves this week!

  Here we go, let’s do some weekly Faves. 1) First up is the Pura Diffuser . I have 5 of these all over the house. I can’t really do candles anymore (they sadly sting my eyes), so I’ve been using these. I LOVE that they are controlled from my phone, so I can set them while I’m away and come home to a great smelling house. I can also set up a schedule for them. The only “con” if you will, is that I haven’t found “my scent”. I’m quite picky with smells, and I’d love to find something similar to The Hotel scent I diffuse in regular diffusers. It smells so good. They do have the popular Volcano candle scent. I’ll find “my scent” eventually, and then it will be perfection! 2) Here we go again with another Beautycounter product. This time it’s the All Bright C Serum . Not only is the bottle bright and happy, but it brightens my skin as well. Someone once told me that consistency with your Vitamin C serum is what yields results, and I really do believe that. This one is a winner in my boo...

Thank you Mom for so many Faves!

  This week I wanted to reflect on my momma. She gave me innumerable Faves, but I picked out a few that are current Faves.  1) I’m pretty sure my mom’s favorite color was Gold . The more the better! I, too, love gold. So, this week I got gold nails as a subtle nod to her. I think she would love them! 2) Cold Chicken Rice Pilaf Salad  is a recipe my mom gave me years ago. It is a favorite in our house. I have made it several times during the Pandemic. It’s wonderful to have on hand for Walt’s work from home lunch hours. I made some for my stepdad last week and he loved it as well! Thank you mom for this great recipe that serves so many! 3) I love lotions! I have a lot of favorites, but Vaseline Intensive Care (Original Yellow Bottle)  is always at the top of the list. My mom used this lotion as long as I could remember. Every time I use it I think of her.  4) My Leopard Ugg’s  were a gift from my mom a couple of Christmases ago. Still love them on cold cozy ...

Let’s do some Faves!

  Let’s get right to it! 1) I am loving this whole Beautycounter Countermatch Set ! Like the whole set! I got suckered in on FB, but I love it! 2) I have been using this Twill Boat Storage and Laundry Tote  for years. It has transported things to and from college, on road trips, and lately back and forth to my mom and stepdad’s condo. I have gifted these, and accumulated several. Hands down the best! 3) The good ol’ Happy Planner . I have tried many, many planners. This one is simple and perfect for me! 4) I told y’all I love Kerastase! This Kerastase Serum  is awesome for my “ends”. And it smells so good I don’t even need perfume! This post is short and sweet, but I do love all of these Faves! Happy Wednesday!

They said 2021 was gonna be better...

  I feel like I have a LOT of lemonade sitting around from all of the lemons life has been giving us lately. But, I’m not going to complain. We’re all in this together, and I am grateful for so much.  1) I know the last time I shared a hack some of y’all loved it! So just wait til you hear about this hack for my Keurig with these felt furniture pads . I’d give credit for it, but I can’t remember where on IG I saw it. If you stick felt pads underneath your Keurig it slides back and forth on the counter easily (like it’s on a pull out shelf). Slide it out when using it or filling it with water, and slide it back when not in use. I did this to both of our Keurigs and it is FANTASTIC. It’s the little things... 2) I am an excellent grilled cheese maker. I thought it was because of my secret ingredient (Havarti cheese), but now I think it’s my skills. During the snowstorm/power outages I sent Walt to the grocery store for white bread and Havarti cheese. He came home with artisan bre...
