Friday Faves

Good morning! This is no April Fool’s, my Faves really are on Saturday today.

1) The Push by Ashley Audrain This was my 10th book of 2023. Although I’m putting it in my Faves, I’m not totally sure how I feel about this book. A new friend suggested it, and the book warns it could be triggering to some because it deals with abuse, but it’s the ending I had a problem with. I won’t spoil it. If you read it, contact me and tell me how you felt about the ending.

2) Nicebay Electric Gooseneck Kettle I have an electric kettle, but what drew me to this one is that I can control the temperature. I’ve been drinking hot water with lemon before coffee each morning, and I set the temperature for 150, so it’s very warm but not too hot. I’m loving this new morning ritual!

3) Sunday Silks Sleep Mask by Colorado Home On my last trip I was speaking to some ladies about how sleep masks are game changers for them. I laughed and said they aren’t for me. I’d pull them off in the middle of the night, etc. They explained to me that they don’t start out with the mask on, but if they wake up in the middle of the night they put it on to help them go back to sleep. I have been waking up in the middle of the night a lot lately and struggling to go back to sleep, so I decided what could it hurt? This has been a game changer for me too! One morning Walt came in and woke me up because he had to get in the shower for work. It was almost 9 am! 😅 This silky mask is just enough! I love it!

4) Voluspa Forbidden Fig Candle To say this candle was a splurge is an understatement. It was absurdly expensive, but it’s huge! I saw it in a store and couldn’t stop thinking about it. I love love love the scent of this candle though, so would definitely recommend it in a smaller size. Hopefully I’ll have this candle for years.

Have a great weekend and don’t fool anyone today!

  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...
