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 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…

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…

March 2020 Favorites
It’s weird to talk about what I loved this month when this month has been the absolute worst. It’s like every month of 2020 is competing to be the worst. I’m thankful that I’m still healthy as are my friends and family (knock on wood) but we can all agree it’s a very weird, isolating, scary time right now. We’re all stuck inside our homes and only going out for necessities. I spend my days working from home – teaching virtually through Zoom – and if it’s a nice day I’ll go for a walk to get some fresh air and exercise after my work day. Unsurprisingly I only have…

February 2020 Favorites
I saw a meme somewhere yesterday that said something like January was 48 years long and February was 2 seconds and I think it’s so true! January felt like it dragged on and on and I always think the months go by in the blink of an eye so January was strange for sure. I can’t believe February is about to be over and it normally would be except for the fact that it’s a leap year! So let’s get in to my February favorites! First up, my Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Throw. I have been talking about this for a month. It’s my first Barefoot Dreams piece and I’m in love. I…

January 2020 Favorites
Normally, I start off my monthly favorites posts talking about how I can’t believe it’s the end of a month. However, this month has felt pretty long. Not that I’m rushing time, but seriously it feels like Christmas was a long, long time ago. Anyone else feel the same? I have a few favorites from this month so let’s get to it! First, I watched the documentary movie on Linda Ronstadt called “Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice” and really liked it. I listened to a lot of Linda Ronstadt growing up because my parents would play her music in the car all the time. The movie talked about…

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…

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…
