My boyfriend and I moved in together a little over a year ago. It’s our first place together in a new city, so we wanted (almost) everything to be brand new. Well, that’s just my excuse to get new things, but that’s another tale in itself. When you need a house full of new things, you don’t think of the small things that you may need. In our case, it was a bread box. My boyfriend had not idea what a bread box was and I was on a very intense hunt to find one. We visited multiple home goods stores, like Bed, Bath, & Beyond and Ikea. To our surprise we couldn’t find one anywhere. I mean, Ikea, come on! They have EVERYTHING for the home. Apparently, they have everything except for bread boxes. As you could imagine, I was disappointed. I gave up on finding a nice bread box until I came across the company Francois et Mimi.

I was given the wonderful opportunity to attend the Theresa Caputo Live! The Experience at the CFE Arena. The CFE Arena is on the UCF campus in Orlando, FL. This arena is the go-to venue for a lot of Central Florida sports and entertainment events throughout the year! In fact, I attended a Cirque De Solei show in this arena a couple years ago.

Fit Snack is a subscription service that sends a box packed with health snacks right to your every month. For only $17.95 (+ shipping) you will receive a delicious box with snacks that will improve your diet and your next work out! The box is shipped in very beautiful and custom packaging, so it would be a great gift for someone! The box is guaranteed to have 7-10 nutritious items that are valued at over $30.

What it comes down to is this… Would I pay $15 for this? No. Would I pay $5 or less just in the hopes that I am ACTUALLY protecting myself, maybe.

Even in Darkness is a story about survival, anguish, and strength. Barbara Stark-Nemon has spent many years of her life researching and studying her family’s letters and stories about their lives during the Holocaust and her book has finally been released! After hearing her grandfather’s many stories of hop and survival, Barbara was inspired to keep their stories alive forever. The story wasn’t as much about Barbara’s grandfather as it was about his sister, who did not escape the Holocaust, but did manage to survive.

Hello my pretties! The boyfriend and I FINALLY made time for another game night. It seems like it has been way too long. We were going to play a few games, but we ended up playing 2 games a few times. Winning Moves has so many great games that I just cannot get enough! Seriously, every game night consists of at least one game from Winning Moves. How could we not? The have a little bit of everything! It’s safe to say that Winning Moves wins game night… AGAIN!

Do you pay enough attention to your skin care routine? When I was a teenager and in my early 20s I never paid much attention to my skin. I didn’t have anyone to teach me the right way to take care of my skin. I barely ever even washed my face, much less used any other facial products. Now that I am older, I know A LOT more about my skin than I ever though I would. I know that I wish I had spent more time on my skin care routine as a young adult because my skin isn’t nearly as beautiful as it should be. I wish I knew then what I know now and I am sure there are other women out there that were in the same boat as I was. I hope that these tips help some of you.
