At the start of this week I was working like crazy but I've had the last few days off and have done nothing but relax. I honestly haven't moved off of the couch for the last two days and it's been wonderful!
{One} David's Tea Herbal Sweet Apple Cider Tea. It's fall. The leaves are changing, the weather is getting colder and it's the perfect time to curl up on the couch with a good book and a steaming cup of tea. And what better kind than apple cider tea. This is from David's Tea Fall Collection. We don't have a David's Tea in my area so last week my husband and I made the trek to the closest one an hour and a half away. Needless to say I stocked up on tea and was very happy to find out that my local mall is getting a store this month!!! I'm in tea-heaven. Now if only I can get my hands on the advent calendar this year! Find my new favorite tea here.
{Two} Martha Stewart Avery Adhesive Metal Bookplates. I LOVE the Martha Stewart Collection that is sold at Staples. However, it is being phased out and every time I go to any of my local stores the inventory is seriously lacking. Thankfully, my local store did have these little gems which were perfect for my recent labeling craze. I picked up these bookplates to use on the edges of our home binders. We have several that we use (financial, manuals, work, household) and I wanted to be able to tell them apart without having to open them up every time. I placed these babies on the spine and inserted a label made from my new label maker and they look fabulous. You can check out how it turned out on my Instagram. And find the bookplates here.
{Three} Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 Palette. Like I said, we drove an hour and a half to go shopping last week... it was my birthday. They have a Sephora there and I have been lusting over this palette for quite some time. Husband picked it up for me for my birthday and I love it already. It's perfect for traveling because of the compact size and basic shades. I have the larger Naked Palettes and I use them a lot for everyday use. We're planning a Christmas shopping trip next month and it'll be nice to take this with me. It fits perfectly in my travel makeup bag! Good job husband! Did I mention he also bought me a lady-friendly shovel for my birthday?!?! Find the palette here.
{Four} Bananagrams! This is seriously the best game ever. We play it at work on night shifts if its a slow night (shhhhhh! I work at the hospital. NEVER say it's a slow night!). It's a multi-player word game that is very fast and enjoyable. Everyone builds their own crosswords. There is no turns, everyone plays at the same time. It's a race to the finish and I love it! My husband and I have been playing a lot lately and we even challenged ourselves to themed puzzles. One night we only spelled words associated with Harry Potter. It's loads of fun and you can find it here!
{Five} Neighbours on DVD and BluRay. My husband and I saw this in theatres and we picked it up the day it was released. We don`t have children yet but both of us can totally picture us as the young couple having their first child in this movie trying to compete with a frat house as neighbours. It was hilarious and if you haven`t seen it yet you should! Beware of the rating as there is mature content. Did I mention that Zac Efron is shirtless for a great deal of the movie? Bonus! Buy it here!
