A Few of My Favorite Things!

So I was inspired by a friends blog that I enjoy reading. She always has good ideas, things I'd like to try, something new to check out. Since I am in my own little world most of the time I like to see what others have found to be their favorite things. As I've been thinking of my own favorite things, I realized I am truly a creature of habit ... I have a few tried & true favorites, of course not as good as Oprah, but I thought I'd share anyway ... in no particular order








1. Sugardoodle.net. I was recently put in the Primary presidency, not a calling I ever thought I'd have (or like!) But actually it's kinda fun, but this website saves me... it's full of ideas & tons of great stuff...





2. The Office. Thurdays night is our date night, pathetic I know, but every Thursday we set the DVR, put the kiddies to bed & have a little time to just laugh ... together... good date huh?








3. This is Clinique's double face powder. It's foundation & powder in one. I have used it for years, it lasts awhile, I always buy it when they do Bonus Time. (So I'm cheap!) It lasts all day & feels very light.











4. C.O. Bigelow's mentha shine, I'm sure it's all of your favorite's too! I love the mentha feel, but with the feel of gloss. I have several flavors & colors, I keep them in the car, makeup bag, purse... all over! I like to stock up when they're on sale.












5. J. Crew slippers. Mine are red & a little different, but they have the rubber sole that I love. Since I got them at Christmas, I pretty well live in them if I'm at home. They are comfy & cozy, but you can still take the garbage out or go get the kids from school! My hubby thinks I'm weird because I wear them all the time... oh well.









6. Cardigans. No particular brand, I just like them, alot! I try not to wear them everyday, but I want to. They are easy to wear with anything, dress them up or down, and the best thing... they hide my little trouble spot right in front! (I have a few trouble spots, but this one is the worst!) I like this one, it's from J. Crew, it's longer & also addresses my other problem spot!


Note: I didn't always shop J. Crew, but now that my favorite sister (love ya!) manages one, I get a heads up on good sales! I know, I'm spoiled, I don't deserve her....














7. Nicolas Sparks novels. I love his all of his books, I have read & reread all of them. I don't always have alot of time to read, but it's a nice way to escape once in awhile.












8. Sonic. I love Happy Hour - for those of you who don't know, they have the BEST ice ever... those little round pellets? I love 'em! During Happy Hour all drinks are 1/2 price. Diet Coke with fresh lime- need I say more? I used to feel dumb going thru the drive thru for only a drink, but I know I'm not the only one. You can also buy a bag of ice...

I LOVE sonic ice too. The ice totally makes the drink. John and I have a Thursday date night at The Office too. Maybe we could double sometime. Tell Heather to tip me off to the J crew sales. I prefer at least 2 mark downs. :) I'm cheap too.
