Burt’s Bees Milk & Honey lotion
Super creamy, with no offensive ingredients, leaves my skin feeling super silky soft and hydrated, with a wonderful but not too heavy scent.
Denali Dreams handmade soap in Kodiak Brown (patchouli blend)
This soap is just luscious. I first found this at Denali National Park last July when my sister-in-law and her family came up for a visit. I love this stuff!
Silverhook dark roast
Roasted in Anchorage, Alaska, this is an organic coffee that I just adore. We brew it rich and strong and it kickstarts our days.
My modest collection started when my mother-in-law gave me a small pendant a couple years ago. I’ve enjoyed adding special pieces to it since then. We added two more prominent pieces on our last trip to Texas — our wedding bands.
Yep, I’m kickin’ it old style. I love my Docs. I want a pair of Doc Marten Mary Janes, as well as a pair of 20-eyelet boots.
This stuff is soft, squishy, and a pleasure to knit with. I’ve made a pair of socks for John that came out comfortably warm and even stood up to an accidental wash and dry cycle. There are other, truly decadent sock yarns that I love to use, but for a workhorse sock for John, I think this is the winner (for now).
Lip balms
I have no less than a dozen lip balms at any given time, and am compelled to always have one on me. It’s either in my jeans pocket or in my purse, but I have to have at least one. I go get another if I don’t have one. I hate having dry, chapped lips. I’ve made my own lip balm too, though I gave most of it away for Christmas. It was good stuff; I’ll have to make more.
Water bottles
I always have to have one of these with me too. I drink anywhere from half a gallon to a gallon of water a day, and my water bottles have become like grown-up lovies for me. If I don’t have one, I feel like I’m missing an appendage. My favorite one at the moment is my purple one from Ozark Trail. I had wanted to buy a Sigg the last trip to Texas, but forgot.
Sunflowers
Bright and beautiful, these flowers light up my world. Mama knew this, and would often get me sunflower-adorned things.
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal by Christopher Moore
Sarcastic, witty, satirical, irreverant, and absolutely hilarious. This has to be my favorite book ever. I lost my copy, so I’ll have to get another one just so I can re-read it again soon. If you know me, and appreciate my sense of humor, then I am sure you’ll love this book too.
