Hello August!

 Well hello August!! I'm actually typing this post up on Thursday morning instead of a day or so in advance. It's going to be a bunch of randomness for your August morning.

Well, first up. Gonna go try drink a cheap a** screw top rosรฉ tonight and live for the hope of it all. IYKYK.....(The one I got from Sam's. I think it was like $10. If that.)

Here are two quotes I found while scrolling on Pinterest to get this month started off well. They are both from Our Mindful Life.

LOVE this.

And this, too! Both are such good reminders.

Ok, I have followed Amy Beth Campbell (amy.beth.campbell on IG) for a few years, and she has posted about this healthy baked oatmeal from Elisabeth & Butter for quite a while. It always intrigues me, and after she posted about it again yesterday....I had a dream about it. Y'all. I literally DREAMED about it- ha!! So,  I will definitely be getting the ingredients at the store next time.

Another bit of randomness...I have heard great things about this nail polish for several years. I think I am going to try their long lasting polish (they also have a fast dry system). Walmart and Target carry the brand, so I think I'll check there before I order! I have my eye on "Hot Strawberry" and some fun fall colors too!!

Something else I'll be checking out soon!! Blake Lively definitely has fabulous hair that I think a lot of people have dreamed of having at some point (myself included!!). Well, she's coming out with a hair system that she's been working on for I think 7 years. And the best part....everything is around or less than $25!! Here's an article all about it.

Ok, have a fabulous Thursday and a great start to your August!!

  1. I have been wearing Olive & June pretty exclusively for a few years and LOVE it! I use the long lasting and it really does last!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times ๐Ÿ˜‚. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??๐Ÿ˜‚ 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...
