My 12 Favorite Things For 12-12-12
Hey!
Melissa at 320 Sycamore has a party going on! I decided to join in the fun and post 12 of my favorite things.
1. IPhone : What would I do without it?! Enough said.

2. Penguin Classic Books: I'm one of those rare people that prefer a real book to my Kindle. I like the way a real book feels in my hand and how it smells and I like to write in my books. I just don't get the same experience with the Kindle. I've asked Santa for the Penguin Classics. Beautiful books and affordable, in fact, I think they're under $20.

3. J. Jill boyfriend jeans: These jeans are so comfortable and roomy. The cuff turns up but you can turn it down and go cuff-less. J. Jill was so nice about not stitching the cuff in or shortchanging the length. Thank you!

5. NIV Study Bible leather bound: I teach Bible study and Sunday School and I give my bible a work out so I prefer a leather bound. I like this version for teaching because I find it's easier for people in different places of their faith journey to understand.

6. The Pioneer Woman Cookbooks: New favorites that I found this year. I know... I'm slow to the party. We've loved everything that I have cooked out of these books. She also has lots of pictures and stories about her family in the cookbook, too. If I had to pick one recipe, I think Taco Pizza. Yummy!
7. Aspen Bay Capri Blue candle in Volcano: My daughter and I would smell this candle every time we went in our Anthropologie store so eventually, I bought one. I'm sensitive to many smells and usually stick with vanilla but this one does not bother me. In fact, I bought a diffuser this fall.
8. CeraVe moisturizing cream: My favorite lotion hands down: nice and thick without being greasy.

9. Pixi Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer & Concealer: This moisturizing tint makes my makeup routine super- de- duper quick. The top has an exact match concealer and the tint is light not heavy with SPF 20. Everything you need in a tube to give you some color! I buy it at Target.

10. Movies : A favorite family activity is popcorn and a movie so I thought I'd share two of our favorite Christmas versions of A Christmas Carol. My Honey Do likes the George C. Scott and I like The Muppets which has fun catchy tunes!

11. Mrs. Meyers All Purpose Cleaner : This cleaner is not harsh. I happen to like the lavender one but they carry other fragrances as well and so much better than ammonia which knocks you out. I ordered mine from Amazon but I think Target carries it.

Visiting from 320 Sycamore.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the glow in the dark stars!
Thanks for the visit!
DeleteWhat a great list! Several of my favorites are on here too. I prefer to read my high schoolers' youth Bibles, though, because they are right on my level. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you stopped by for a visit!
DeleteI love Pixi makeup~I will have to check the concealer out! Love Mrs. Meyers too, and I would love a PW cookbook! Great list, thanks for joining! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa! I had fun putting it together and joining in : )
DeleteGreat list! You are the 3rd person that said I have to get that Volcano candle from Anthro. I'm starting to believe everyone! ;) I also love Mrs. Meyers' products - the Lemon Verbena scent is my current fave. I just started seeing those Penguin classics books in the hardcovers - I'm a sucker for old books, too! I'll have to see if they have one for Little Women - my favorite.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from 320 Sycamore! :)
They do have a Penguin Classic Little Women :) You can also get the volcano candle at Amazon. A very Merry Christmas to you and thanks for the visit!
DeleteI've never heard of the marshmallow bits, but they sound great. I love drinking hot chocolate at this time of year.
ReplyDeleteHey Meghan! I hadn't either until this year. I saw them on a blog--I think it was Paige Knudsen's Simple Thoughts. They're a fun switch from larger marshmallows.
DeleteA very Merry Christmas to you and thanks for dropping in to visit!
