A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS / 3

cold-911-davids-tea COLD 911 TEA – 911 for your cold, but in tea form. It’s soothing and super addicting and I swear it helps me feel better faster – even if it’s just in my head. When I don’t have a cold, it tastes a little strong but I think that’s a sign of how awesome it is.

hand-drawn-maps HOMEMADE MAP – We have somewhere to be, in a jiffy King will draw up a map – just so we don’t get lost. These little things are gems, not too sure how I would get anywhere without them.

jade-yoga-mat THE YOGA MAT OF YOGA MATS – my closest friend, gifted me this fine Jade Yoga Mat and boy do I feel silly that I practiced so long without her (it’s totally a her and she’s beautiful). It’s super duper grippy and with just the right amount of cushion, it’s improved my practice drastically – no more slipping and sliding.

sorel boots THE PERFECT WINTER BOOT – In my opinion, Sorel boots beat all others in the winter department hands down. And this style the 1964 Premium Leather, are my favorite (not too high, not too short and just the perfect width). This is my second pair in this style, my first pair broke and they replaced them with a brand spanking new pair – so their customer service is also top notch.

Tru-Self-organic-beauty-items ORGANIC BEAUTY PRODUCTS – I’m sorta a doofus when it comes to makeup (see also, I know nothing about it). But really love basic beauty items; like my lip stain, mascara, face wash, straight up vitamin E and coconut oil and now these products from TruSelf. So far I’ve only tried the Raw Honey Lip Gloss and the Raw Body Butter, but I’m hooked enough to try more items from the line. So gentle and perfect in my simple yet (mostly) chemical free beauty bag.

sol-republic-headphones THE HEADPHONES (AND THE HUSBAND) – Both fit perfectly on the list, but the husband is not for sale. These headphones are great, they are comfy in the ear and they don’t fall out (I have a big problem with headphones like this never staying put).  We hear they are great for running and I’ll report back when the weather gets a little nicer for this guy to start doing that again.

kleen-kanteen-bottle BEST FRIEND IN WATER BOTTLE FORM – For Christmas Chris bought me a new water bottle, my previous Kleen Kanteen was very well loved (super duper beat up). I carry this baby with me everywhere, the handle is my favorite, extra easy to open when I’m all sweaty from yoga and it’s just really pretty (plus it has the same wide mouth that makes cleaning super easy).

sweets-earth-cookie-dough-vegan-gluten-free carmex-lip-balm zara-faux-leather-jacket benefit-mascara-and-lip-tint american-apparel-hoodies-for-the-family dr-bronners-castile-soap granny-cart-city-grocery-cart

  1. COOKIE DOUGH, OH COOKIE DOUGH – Sweets from the Earth makes some of my favorite quick grab baked goods. I could take bets that no one would ever notice that it’s vegan and gluten free, it’s 10 times better then that Pillsbury stuff – restrictions or not, try it and thank me later. sweets from the earth cookie dough.
  2. THE BEST LIP BALM – hands down, there is not a better cure for chapped lips. It’s a bit intense, so might be best saved for those super chapped days – when your lips are chapped, this is the guy you call to get the job done. carmex lip balm
  3. FAUX LEATHER BIKER – I’m a fan of good faux leather jacket, half because I feel a bit uncomfy wearing an animal skin and the other half because real leather is way outta my price range. This is the faux leather biker jacket of my dreams. zara biker jacket
  4. LIPS AND EYE MUST HAVES – I don’t leave the house without them! The tint is always on my lips and cheeks, going on 5 years now – it’s the perfect every color lift. And I recently switched from Bad Gal to They’re Real and wow, it’s two jump kicks better – and I thought the Bad Gal tube was the best there ever was. benefit they’re real mascara . benefit benetint
  5. THE BEST HOODIES – Hands down our favorite hoodies, Dad is the only one who doesn’t have one – I need to fix that, stat. We love basics, and this basic goes a long way and gets worn almost everyday. american apparel adult hoodie . kids hoodie
  6. THE BEST SOAP – No joke, this is hands down the best soap around – it really is a magic soap. You can use it for more then washing your body, a little goes a long long way and it’s always a good read in the shower. The first time I ever bought Dr. Bronners soap, I kicked myself for not buying it sooner – I could have saved so much money trying to find a great no chemical, eco friendly soap if I had bought this off the bat. dr. bronners soap (peppermint is our jam)
  7. GRANNY CART – For city dwellers this baby is a life saver, or at least a back and arm saver. After I got rid of our stroller, I needed something to stack my groceries in – and this little grocery cart came to my rescue. It’s also Harlow’s favorite job.

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS / 01

I realized I don’t talk a lot about things, mostly about people – but things are pretty cool too. So I figured this would be a fun way to share some of those things that are so cool they sorta end up being my favorite. This list is sorta like my tried, tested and true, real life favorite list. I know I, like to hear about the things people actually really love and use, so this will be that from me. Here are just a few of my favorite things, surely more real life lists like this will follow in time. power y tank, the best workout tank rise kombucha, mint kombucha nail polish, grey nail polish honey throat drops, ener c the best leggings, aritiza leggings the best pepper, simply organic pepper the best boyfriend jeans, H&M boyfriend jeans

  1. POWER Y TANK – literally the best workout/yoga tank in history, I wish they made an everyday version out of cotton with the same racerback cut.
  2. MINT KOMBUCHA – even a kombucha hater would love this stuff, it’s tremendously delicious (over the top, but it’s true). It’s my afternoon pick me up, instead of a second coffee – I have been lucky enough to find 1L bottles on the cheap!
  3. NAIL POLISH – this color is like a dark grey/purple (grey area), it’s the cheap stuff or more like the not 11$ a bottle stuff. I haven’t painted my nails since pre kiddos, but now that Harley is all about getting hers done it’s a must I do mine too – though she doesn’t quite understand why pink isn’t really my favorite.
  4. HONEY THROAT LOZENGES – these things are amazing, it’s nice to have something to suck one when you have a sore throat and the honey actually works amazing to heal the soreness. I was sick and used up the whole box, but I initially bought them for the kiddos. Also Ener-C, I’m never quite smart enough to take it BEFORE getting sick but I assume it helps me to get better faster.
  5. THE BEST LEGGINGS – no joke, no exaggeration. They have a thick waistband, with a tiny elastic sewn in similar to Lulu pants – no muffin top guarantee. Also they are made with little tacks on the legs, so you can chop them to suit the length you want no going to a seamstress. These babies are the bees knees as far as everyday leggings go (not really suitable for workouts or yoga).
  6. PEPPER – actually all spices from Simply Organic are the best in the west. But the pepper gets two thumbs up, it’s not chunky like pepper mill pepper (which I’m not really a fan of) and it’s not super fine like regular pepper – it’s right in the middle and juusst right.
  7. BOYFRIEND JEANS – the best boyfriend jeans that have ever graced my butt. Not too baggy, not too loose, tapered in the leg and dropped in the crotch just enough. I have said it before, but H&M jeans really are the best (I should also mention I’m a bit of a denim snob, so devoting my love to cheap jeans is saying a lot) – and these BF jeans are on that best list.
