Shit I’m Into - August 2018

I haven’t posted in a while. August was a challenging month, but we made it through! Clearly, that master bedroom reveal didn't happen. Oh well. Not gonna sweat it.

So here we go - here are the top 5 things that helped keep me sane this past month. Forever 35 Podcast - Because gabbing with your girlfriends about

self-care is fun! This podcast is funny and emotional and practical all in one lovely package. And you get sweet product recs to boot! There are also mini episodes where hosts Kate and Doree answer listener questions. Check it out and let me know what you think. Death Cab for Cutie’s new album - “Thank You for Today” is exactly what I didn’t know I needed. It’s a nod to the Death Cab of my high school days, but still new and interesting. Listen to it on repeat. No need to skip; all of the tracks are solid! Pedialyte - A must have for battling the stomach bug that plagued my house yet again this month. We JUST had it in June! Give mama a break, dammit! At least this time we were able to quarantine our little infected family and kept the infection down to 3 people (we think). Last time, the bug went through TEN family members. We’ve never been more sick than this past year. (Finley has been in group child care for one year. Confidence? No fucking way!) My Nespresso Machine - I’m trying to kick my expensive coffee habit, sooooo I bought this Nespresso machine and I’m loving it! I think I’ve pretty much mastered the Starbucks iced caramel macchiato. I now have an entire Pinterest board dedicated to copycat espresso drink recipes. It’s convenient, and it feels good to save some dough. I will still indulge in my Starbucks from time-to-time... just not 5 days a week. That’s a lot of chedda, y’all! Taco Bell Nacho Fries - The perfect comfort food for a hectic, stressful, sucky month! The fries are seasoned and they come with a tasty side of cheese sauce. I usually hate cheese sauce, but this shit is good! If you haven’t tried them, get on it. They’re only around for a limited time.

There you have it. Let me know if you check out any of this. And I would love to hear about the shit you're into.
