A few of my favorite things:

So my dear friend Katherine started blogging a couple of months ago and I must say, her posts are quite entertaining!  One of her most recent posts was her "List of Favorites", which I believe she obtained the idea from someone else.  Anyway, I thought this was a great idea so here are a few of my favorite things as of late!

  1. Philosophy's Hope in A Jar - I know this has been around FOREVER and I've always known it's been out there!  However, I just discovered it!  Since I became pregnant my face has broken out worse than a middle schoolers - ugh.  With pregnancy comes all of the things to avoid, including any face medicine, salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, etc (which I'm desperately needing....or did).  So I decided to give this moisturizer a try - Bingo, face has cleared dramatically!  Could be coincidence, my hormones leveling out - who knows.  I'm contributing it to Hope in A Jar!
  2. O.P.I. Over the Taupe nail polish - love it for the Fall/Winter!  You should check it out :)
  3. Cuties - little clementines that are soooo juicy and easy to peel.  Delicious!
  4. Cocoa Butter creme - yes, I said creme, not lotion.  My stomach has been itching like crazy due to stretching.  I try not to think about the stretching part.  The stuff is like Crisco - no joke!   Whatever it is, I lather it on twice a day so I don't claw my skin off and it works.
  5. Drew Holcomb & the Neighbors "A Neighborly Christmas" album - love them!  Ellie, Drew Holcomb's wife, and I were Tri-delts at UT together and her talented self, along with her husband, have become very successful (no surprise there)!  Definitely should check them out on iTunes
  6. Belly Band - this great invention allows me to wear my regular pants instead of making the conversion to those oh-so-lovely-maternity pants.  Not sure how much longer this device will suffice!
  7. Greeneville Antique Market - this is a great find!  They are located on Depot St. downtown Greeneville.  I've been in there a couple of times before but didn't see much.  That was until Mom and Dad came up to visit a couple of months ago and Mom loves antique stores so off we go!  At this visit, I eyed a table and hutch that I thought would be perfect for a changing table but I was newly pregnant and hadn't really started nursery furniture shopping yet.  Sooo I thought about it, went furniture shopping and I kept coming back to this piece in my mind.  Needless to say, we went back to purchase it a couple of weeks ago and while there found a bedside table along with an antique dresser!   Lots of treasures in this place :)
  8. Fresh Market's Cinnamon & Hazelnut coffee - decaf of course.  Very festive and makes your house smell great!
Stay tuned for more of my favorites...
