December 2019 Favorites
Every month seems to fly by and I pretty much always say that, but I can’t believe we’re at the last day of 2019! Not just the last day of December, but the last day of the year and decade. It’s so crazy to think about. A lot has changed in the past 10 years and some things have stayed the same. The way 2019 started is really different from the way 2019 is ending. This year I moved out of my townhouse that I had bought with my brother and bought a condo of my own. Spent almost 3 months getting it renovated and just recently moved in. It’s…

Hallmark Top 10 Christmas Movies 2019
If you’ve been following me for at least a year then you know I pretty much watch every Hallmark Channel movie. I know that they are really predictable, but I still love them. It’s a guilty pleasure! But, I do have to say that they have really elevated their material this holiday season with some deeper storylines and they’re not all saccharine sweet anymore. I watched almost all of the Hallmark holiday movies this year, but fell behind this past week so I missed the last few (although I do have them saved on my DVR to watch sometime next week when I have time). Nonetheless, I feel like since…

Hot Tub Accessories for An Epic Spa Party With Friends
After your best friend convinced you about the health benefits of hot tub soaks, you finally got a spacious hot tub set up in your patio. Then you tested it. Sadly, soaking up is only half the fun without the rest of the gang. Perhaps it’s time to organize your very first hot tub party. But how do you pull off one? If you’ve organized a party before, this shouldn’t be much different. Just think up a cool theme, get your food and refreshments menu ready, and prepare some entertainment. Since your guests will be half dipped in water for a good portion of your party, you want to prepare interesting splash-friendly activities…

November 2019 Favorites
Somehow we’re already in the last month of 2019. Of the decade, too! I have a bunch of favorites from November, but most of them are from tv. There have just been so many things on tv that I loved in November. So let’s get to it. First, I’ve been loving my new Quay Australia sunglasses I got early in the month. It’s been a while since I’ve gotten new sunglasses and I love these. I love the rainbow look of the lenses in the top pair and the rounded shape of the pink pair on the bottom. My next favorite is perfume – Nirvana Black from the Elizabeth &…

October 2019 Favorites
How was everyone’s Halloween? Aside from the kids at school dressing up, it didn’t really feel like Halloween to me! So the fact that it’s now November is just crazy to me. I don’t have that many October favorites, but the ones I do have I seriously love. First up, empanadas from Division Street Cafe. Earlier in the month I was really in the mood for some empanadas and I have gotten take out empanadas from Division Street Cafe multiple times this month! They heat up great for lunch at work too! One photo is from when I was heating up a bunch at home and one photo is from when I…

September 2019 Favorites
I don’t know why but I keep thinking that October is a week away and then I’m thrown off every time I realize it’s a lot sooner than that. Like as in tomorrow. September has been really busy, but I’ve still got some favorites to share with you. First up is my new Coach wallet. My wallet before this one was a Vera Bradley one in a pink floral print and it lasted me a few years but it was getting real rough looking so I was due for a new wallet. I got this one for my birthday and I don’t see this exact one on the website anymore, but…

Recent Netflix Binge Shows
In the past 1-2 months I have put a decent dent in my Netflix list of things to watch. Since I’m always so curious to know what other people are watching on Netflix, I thought I’d write up a quick post of what I have watching/what I’ve been watching since late July. First, Supernatural. I have watched Supernatural since the beginning and this fall the final season (season 15!) begins. Although I have been a big fan since it started 15 seasons ago I did fall behind 2 seasons ago. What had happened was I had episodes saved on my DVR to catch up on and lost the episodes and then…

Friends 25th Anniversary
If you read my post yesterday about hoping there would be no surprises, setbacks, or other stress related things for my final day before the closing on my condo then I’m here to tell you that yesterday was so filled with stress and anxiety that two new pimples have popped up on my chin. Seriously, I was filled with anxiety all day yesterday and to the point of near tears last night because I’m just so tired. At the time of writing this I have no idea what exactly will happen today and if the closing will go according to plan, but I’ll update you in tomorrow’s post. In much happier…

August 2019 Favorites
August was so crazy and busy that it felt like a really long month, but at the same time I can’t believe it’s actually September. In August I went to San Francisco for a week, had to wear my glasses for 2 weeks, had a birthday, went to see Backstreet Boys , had my first session of the Vbeam laser on my face, went back to work, got in to LIKEtoKnow.it and moved out of my townhouse. That is a lot of things! All in one month! Since I am exhausted from all the packing this weekend, let’s get right to my favorites in August. I’ll try to make it quick!…

July 2019 Favorites
Well, this summer is truly flying by and I’m not too happy about it. Why do summers always fly by? Especially as a teacher? There was so much I wanted to do this summer – a lot more writing than I’ve done (which is close to nothing), but I have a little bit of time left to maybe at least start my project and not be a total waste. Anyway, let’s get to my July favorites. There have been a few things this month that I didn’t just really like, but I seriously loved and became maybe, slightly obsessed with. First up, Pepperidge Farm Sausalito Cookies. It’s been a long…
