Friday Faves

Image
  I’m actually doing Friday Faves on Friday this week. In the morning. So timely! 1) Rechargeable Lamps This is a second appearance of rechargeable lamps in my Faves. My daughter, Hayley, housesat for us when we were out of town, and just before we left she made fun of this lamp in particular because it’s tiny. Well, well, she admitted she had to bite her tongue hard when our electricity went out for several hours and this tiny little lamp as well as other rechargeable lamps around the house came to her rescue! She and her boyfriend were walking around the house carrying these lamps like they were Scrooge or someone from Harry Potter (I can’t remember who they said). She said they were SO helpful that she felt bad making fun of them. Honestly, I don’t know that I would have thought to use them in a power outage, so good job Hayley! 2) Kobalt Cordless Blower This little blower my friend Cheryl suggested is wonderful to keep on my patio for touch ups every couple of days. Sometimes w...

Post Cruise Faves

  Since I had too much fun on my cruise to think about Faves, I missed two Fridays. I decided to do a post cruise Faves post. 1) Regent Seven Seas Cruise Line Since our first exposure to Regent, in 2016, an Alaskan Cruise with the family celebrating my stepfather’s 80th birthday, we will only cruise on Regent. This was our fourth Regent cruise, and we sailed on their newest ship, SS Splendor. For 12 days we were pampered and spoiled by the nicest people, met some fun new people/characters, and traveled to bucket list places: England, Norway, Latvia, Estonia, Finland and Sweden. I’m excited to say we have two more Regent Cruises planned! 2) Apple Air Tags I’m sure you’ve heard of these, my friend Stan recommended them to me back in February. A couple of months later I purchased a set of 4. I have three of them in suitcases and one of them on one of my dogs. It was so reassuring having them on this trip. From flight cancellations to the previous trouble London Heathrow had with lugga...

Friday Faves on Thursday?

  I know, I know, it’s only Thursday…but I’m leaving town (yes, I have housesitters) and I wanted to get these in! 1) Beats Fit Pro Wireless Earbuds These happened by accident for me. My son Hudson got some black ones for Christmas a couple of years ago. When I moved him to Nashville he indicated the charging case wouldn’t charge the right earbud. Since they are kind of expensive I ordered him a new charging case first. Then, on Amazon Prime Days they had a deal on these. Since he hadn’t tried the new charging case, I decided to purchase these in case the new case didn’t work for him. I wanted the purple ones, but settled on white because I didn’t think he’d want purple.  Apparently his new charging case works, and I am the proud owner of these babies. They are awesome and work so well with my Peloton! Hudson loves them too and I know why! 2) Waxing the City I guess this happened by accident too. I’ve only ever gone to one girl to get my brows waxed (and I only started waxing ...
