Friday Favorites {8.30.24}

 Happy happy Friday!! As always, I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week!

A Christmas tea in August! My favorite Christmas tea is called "Jingle Bell Juice," and I actually got this one made into a "specialty," so it has protein in it! YUM.

A new Aldi find!! I have never seen this at my store before. I was hoping it would taste like Trader Joe's ranch, and it kinda does! I'm not a big Hidden Valley fan, so this is much better in my opinion.

Y'all know my love for Mimi Seabrook, but it's not just for the clothes and accessories. Every time I get an order, it's packaged with a Bible verse card and a hand written, personalized note on the order slip. I think it really sets them apart from other boutiques, and it's really part of the reason I continue to order from them!

After seeing SO many good things about Olive and June, I decided to just go for it. I ordered the long-lasting top and a long-lasting shade (Strawberry Scone). I love the color! Though I did not get 10 days of wear, I did get almost a week without any chipping! I think a lot has to do with nail prep, which I did not do well when I first used these products. I've been using the top coat along with OPI shades too, and it still gives me several days of wear! Right now, I am on day 5 of a mani that still looks really great!

Have a great weekend!

    I do find nail prep and a good top coat are key for getting a manicure that really lasts. That pink color is so pretty!

    Ohh! I love the idea of a Christmas tea in August. Yours looks so good.
    That is so cute, the notes from Mimi Seabrook. It's the personal touch that makes me want to shop at places like that.

      The tea was so good! I love it when businesses really go the extra mile with personal touches!

Let's Look: March 2024

  I'm back!! Happy Wednesday!! It's the second Wednesday of the month, so that means it's time for LET'S LOOK with Shay and Erika!! In January, we "looked" at How We Clean Our Closets. In February, we "looked" at Little Things We Do Every Single Day. Today, we are "looking" at..... OUR GROCERY CARTS!!  Since I was in Nashville over the weekend, I had to run in Trader Joe's! So, I went ahead and did my grocery shopping for the week while I was there. Plus some other goodies too!  When I went to the TJ's in Huntsville, I said it was my favorite. BUT, I have found a new favorite. There are two locations in Nashville, and I've now been to both. The one on White Bridge Pike is FABULOUS! They had every single thing on my list, and then some. I've been to the other location over by Green Hills Mall, but I didn't look around much, so I can't really attest to how that one is.  I snapped this picture of my grocery cart! This i...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

Friday Favorites {10.18.24}

 Happy Friday!! I hope you all had a great week! I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from my week. Well guess what is back tonight?? NEW Hallmark Christmas movies!! Ummm YAY!! I'm most excited about Confessions of a Christmas Letter (Angela from The Office is starring in that one!) and Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story! For some foodie faves... This right here. It made my week. I'm obsessed with the tuna from Beagle Bagel. It's amazing. I can never say it enough! I made egg drop soup for the lunch the other day, and it was really good! It's always been my favorite soup from Chinese buffets. I didn't feel great and wanted a soup...luckily I had all the ingredients. I used this recipe here. The weather this week was absolute perfection.  I mean, it was really, really cool. And it was fabulous. So, that means.... I broke out a sweater and my Sorel booties that I love so much! I always forget how good the Bible app is. I opened it up...
