Oh hey everyone! After many weeks away, I am very happy to be back to blogging and catching up on what everyone is up to…I feel like it’s been ages!
What did I do while I was away? Well…. a lot. I reassessed my life {tentatively planning the next 6 months of my life…no pressure}, spent time traveling home to Madison, lots of TV watching with the boyfriend and reconnecting with old friends. It felt amazing, but blogging was calling my name the whole time.
I thought I would share some of my favorite little discoveries {and rediscoveries} while I’ve been away that have been getting me through this crazy Wisconsin winter weather.
1. Desk Creatures – I have been spending a lot of time at my desk writing letters and making lists over the last few weeks. I’ve been loving this Owl vase {I use it to hold pencils} from Michaels {only $7!} and this Anthropologie Dachshund letter organizer – so stinking cute!
2. Ban.do Valentines Day Goodies – Heart pins, clips and iPhone cases galore – I’m in love at first heart…
3. Natural Skin Care – I found these Nature’s Gate goodies at TJ Maxx over the weekend and I am obsessed! Paraben free and all natural, this skin care line is out of this world fabulous.
4. Rifle Paper Co. – Okay, so everyone and their mom loves Rifle Paper Co. but I reignited my passion for these cute paper products over my break. I’m now the proud owner of the cities calendar and a few pretty notebooks – it makes doing work not so painful…kinda.
5. Inspirations – I’ve been looking to Pinterest for some words of encouragement and pinning away my favorite inspirations…thank goodness for these little nuggets of wisdom.
6. Eos Lip Balm – I have one {and sometimes two} in every flavor! These are perfect, paraben free, and taste like Starburst, what could be better?
I can’t wait to catch up with all of you – thanks for sticking around with me on this crazy journey. Hope you’re having a fabulous week!
Glad to see you back! Eos balm is amazing- the scents/flavors are so yummy!
Okay I'm obsessed with Michaels. I must go look for that owl vase.

Wait, wait. I need that little pup letter organizer. How cute!

You found the owl vase at Michaels? I need to look harder, the fake flowers are just too overwhelming. Also, I love the photo of you and your mom on instagram. Too cute!
Yes! They have awesome vases and the best dollar section too! My mom loves hamming it up for photos, haha
Oooh I'll have to check out that skin care line! My skin is so sensitive, and it's hard to find products that don't irritate it, but it sounds like this may do the trick!
Isn’t That Charming.
