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 rosé 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!

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 {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...

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
