August 2020 Favorites
It’s been a really weird summer and I can’t believe tomorrow is already September. For a summer that I could hardly do anything, it still flew by. Before I get into the few things I picked out for my August favorites, I wanted to remind you that I’m running a book giveaway and it’s open until Wednesday! See my blog post from Saturday for details on how to enter! First, I have always loved Swedish Fish and have been snacking on them like crazy in August. I love chewy/gummy candies, but I’m not a huge sweets person so for me to be eating these a lot this month means I have…

July/August TV Binging
I’m back with more shows I have finished/am currently binging during this extra time at home. This time it’s a mix of shows that are new, re-watches, and just new to me. Also, I just took this photo the other evening after a long, hot, humid walk outside for some exercise. I had just got home and washed up and was cooling off on top of my bed, scrolling through my phone. I saw the sunlight streaming in on the wall and thought it looked kind of pretty and peaceful. It occurred to me as I was writing this that I could use it since you can see my bedroom…

July 2020 Favorites
We’re already at the last day of July. Part of me can’t believe it’s going to be August tomorrow and part of me feels like this is the longest year in history. I only have a few favorites this month and I know I sometimes say that and then the list ends up being longer than intended. But, I really do only have a few this time! One of the things I did this month was float down the Delaware River for a few miles. It was my first time tubing and it was so nice and relaxing. It was especially nice to get out since life isn’t exactly normal…

Hamilton Viewing
I have been wanting to see Hamilton on Broadway for years. Once the majority of the original cast, including Lin Manuel Miranda were no longer in the show though, my desire wasn’t as great. But for a long time tickets were pretty impossible to get and when you could get them they were so expensive! I’m talking hundreds of dollars for an okay seat. So when it was announced that Disney+ was going to be airing a recording of the show from a few years ago I was so excited! The musical did not disappoint and I’m in awe of how all of the music, lyrics, dialogue could come from…

Songs on Repeat
I’m one of those people that when I find a song or songs I like I can’t stop listening to them. I can literally listen to the same song on repeat for an hour car ride. Back when I was in high school, my friend and I would call these songs on repeat our “summer jams”. The current song on repeat for me is “Be Kind” by Marshmello and Halsey. It’s so good. I love the melody and the lyrics. I thought I would round up some songs (including “Be Kind”) that I’ve been listening to a lot lately. Some are old, some are newer. They’re just what I’ve been…

June 2020 Favorites
Can you believe it’s already the end of June? This has been the weirdest year ever. We’re more than halfway through 2020 and we’ve been in lockdown or in some sort of quarantine for almost 4 of those months. I have a few favorites from this month to share. It’s actually a pretty short list. First, I’ve mentioned this before and if you follow my Instagram Stories, then you know I’ve been trying to go for daily walks whenever the weather is good. When I was working from home during the last 3 months of school, I knew I had to get out for walks. It was good to get…

May 2020 Favorites
Well if 2020 hasn’t already been bad enough, May has just been another dumpster fire! Things are absolutely crazy right now. We’re still getting through the pandemic and the country is literally and figuratively on fire. I hope you are all staying safe through all of these hard times. For lighter new, I have a round-up of things I loved in May. First, did you watch the first season of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist? I loved the show and I’m waiting to hear if it’s picked up for a 2nd season on NBC. I hope so! During the season finale, the cast sang “American Pie” and I was obsessed with their rendition…

Quarantine Binging #2
A few weeks ago I shared the tv shows I’d been binge watching during quarantine. Well, I’m already back with more shows (and 1 movie) that I’ve finished since then. So let’s get to it! The Last Kingdom I’ve written about this Netflix show in year’s past and season 4 recently dropped. I watched the season over the course of a week or so. I didn’t want to rush through it and I was pretty busy at the time with work so I was only watching 1-2 episodes a night. I love this show and if you’re unfamiliar, it follows main character Uhtred in England in the like 800-900s. He…
