My Favorite Things!

MY FAVORITE THINGS!

Sometimes when life gets too stressful, I think about what I'm thankful for, how I've been blessed, and also some of my favorite things. I thought I would share just a few of my favorites with you. This might turn into a weekly feature, but I'm not sure yet. If you want, which I would LOVE, leave a comment below about some of your favorite things.

1. Skittles - My favorite candy in the whole world! I dance every time my husband comes home from the store with a bag of Skittles for me. I love them! When I graduated from high school, my parents filled up a huge container of Skittles as one of my gifts. I finished that thing in like a week. Lol!

2. The Lake - There is probably nothing more relaxing than sitting by a lake and taking in all the wonders that God created. I love putting my feet in, since I can't swim, and just enjoy the sound of the water lapping, the breeze on my face, and the boats that pass lazily by. It's also a great place to catch up on some reading.

3. My Nook - I love this little guy! I have hundreds of books on it  that are all accessible with just the touch of my little finger. My husband gave it to me as a gift when I graduated from the dental assisting program. The thing I love about it the most is that it's more portable than a regular book. I can carry hundreds of books in my purse, which would be near impossible with physical books. 

4. French Fries - I'm a potato girl. I love them anyway I can get them - baked, grilled, sauteed, boiled...you name it! But I have a special place in my heart for french fries. I could eat those things everyday, which sometimes I'm guilty of. McDonald's are my favorite fries, but Five Guys and Chic-fil-A are starting to compete for my affections. Lol!

Bloggy Book Club @ The Dreamy Meadow and Craftbotic

Good morning cuties! How are y'all doing this morning? I wanted to share some news about a book club for those of you who love to read, like me. Katlyn over at The Dreamy Meadow and Rosie at Craftbotic have started a blog book club. It's called the "Bloggy Book Club". Isn't that neat! The first book that we will read is "Water for Elephants" by Sara Gruen. I've had this book for the longest time on my Nook, so I'm glad that I have extra motivation to actually sit down and read it.


If you feel a little intimidated about reading a book within a month, have no fear. Katlyn and Rosie understand that we all live busy lives and can't necessarily lose ourselves in the books we read. So instead of a month, each book will be allotted 6 weeks to finish at your own pace - no designated chapters to rush through to meet a deadline. There will also be post and chat discussions for all the book club members to gush about our favorite parts or rant about the parts we hated.

If you are interested in joining the Bloggy Book Club, you can click on the button at the top right of my blog. I'll also post a direct link to the post on The Dreamy Meadow so that you can get more details about the blog book club. If you do join, let me know. Happy reading cuties :)
