Friday Faves

 It’s time for Friday Faves! Here’s what I have been loving this week:


1) It’s a 10 Scalp Restore Miracle Charcoal Shampoo That’s a LONG name for a tiny bottle of shampoo, but my daughter and I were in Ulta in Waco this past weekend and she wanted to try it, so I said I’ll try it too. I’ve used it twice, as a first cleanse, following up with my regular shampoo and conditioner, and I really like it! It removes the build up of product and leaves my hair looking full and fluffy. I’m not sure if I need it every time I shampoo, but I have liked the results both times I have used it.

2) Art from ZGallerie I purchased this piece to go above my mantle. It’s really big, but I love it! 

3) The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley I loved this book! It’s not my normal genre, and some of the reviews weren’t glowing. I’m learning to take the reviews on Audible with a grain of salt. One review said there were too many characters, but that literally supports the premise of the book. Another review said there was “no grit in this feel good story”? Huh? This reviewer said maybe she was too young (at 35) and anxious for some grit. I do think the younger generation has been conditioned to expect shock value in everything. I felt I was listening to an actual story about people’s lives. I recommended it to my son’s girlfriend, now I’m worried as she’s only 27 today: Happy Birthday, Corinne!

4) Orange Puffer Jacket I purchased this from Amazon last year, and I have really been enjoying it the past few days. It’s lightweight, yet surprisingly warm. It’s also fairly flattering. I don’t look like the Michelin man!

Stay warm out there! Have a great weekend!

  While I did get some random submissions for Faves this week (Larry’s will never happen), I remained on my own. 1) SHOWKOO Luggage Set  I got this luggage set for my upcoming trip (we leave Sunday) because I need to take the carry on and the duffle with me on the plane. I’m trying this duffle in lieu of my usual backpack. I’m excited about it, and hope it’s still a favorite after the trip! 2) Survivor Season 48  While it wasn’t our favorite season premiere, we LOVE Survivor in this house and we love watching it together! 3) Govee Lights  We recently added a bar in our house and my contractor made this light box and used Govee lights. We already have Govee lights around our TV so I was familiar with them and I love them! They can change colors, be put on a timer, etc., all from my phone. There’s a little glitch with this set, so they are going to be replaced, but they still make me squeal every time I walk into the room. 4) Shut the Box Game  My family, as usual...

  Finally home and settled from our Australia/New Zealand adventure. My Faves this week were awesome for me while traveling! 1) Power Plug Adapter  We have used many different plug adapters while traveling, but these were the best we have used! With one adapter we were able to charge everything and I could even curl my hair, ha, ha! Highly recommend! These were compatible in Australia/New Zealand, so I’m hopeful to find some for our next travel adventure, 2) Rothy’s Sneakers  I may have posted these before, but I love love love them when traveling. I own two pair and took them both with me.  3) One Step Behind by Lauren North  I listened to this book (and two others) while on this trip. I had never listened to a book by this author, and I really enjoyed the book. Unique plot for sure. 4) Coach Sling Bag  This might be my favorite of all Faves! I purchased this specifically for my trip to wear on tours/excursions, and I loved it! It has two zippered compartm...

Friday Faves Cabo Edition

Today I’m in Cabo, traveling with my little Andy for the first time. Doing my Faves while he naps.   1) The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia  I’m not even sure how I found this book, and it seems to be the first one she’s written, but it was SO good! I listened to it and there was a full cast of narrators so it was like a performance. Loved the ending! Thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. 2) happyhappyhouseplant on IG  This is my current favorite account on IG. Her name is Mandi Gubler and she is awesome! I literally do not have one live plant in my house, but I’m obsessed with her and almost feel like I could try one! What I like best about her is that her IG stories aren’t long, and she’s very informative and encouraging. Some people I follow go on and on and tell you every minute of their day. I don’t take the time to listen to those people anymore. Highly recommend @happyhappyhouseplant on IG! 3) Apple Watchband from Quince  I love this silver watchband. I...
