stuff I like a lot

My posts lately have been totally random. Here is another one for you. I thought I'd share a few of my favorite things.
My Lisa Leonard ring with my babies names on it. I love it. I wear it on my right middle finger every day.
Boyfriend cardigans! I own too many to count, either from Target or Old Navy and I wear one every single day, and that is probably not an exaggeration.
Speaking of my uniform, these Boyfriend tees from Target are another favorite. Soft, comfy, and loose enough that you don't see my love handles. This top paired with a cardigan, skinny jeans and ballet flats are what I wear most days of the week.
I sleep with this heating pad every night, even though sometimes it makes me sweat. It's not for pain, it's just because this on my lower back feels sooo good. I am using it right now even!
I mean, really, does anyone use any other wipe than Costco's? You can find these in every room of our house. And not only do I use them to wipe hands, noses, and faces, but I use them to clean my house. Stop judging me.
I read this book a few months ago and it completely consumed me. I mean, really. It's like I hardly came up for air. It was devastating, heartbreaking, eye opening, life changing, educational, and inspiring. I was sure that we would adopt from Ethiopia before I read this book. After I read this book I almost hopped on a plane right then and there. Ethiopia still calls my name... Read it.
Okay, so I don't own these exact slippers, but mine are similar and I love them. They are more like socks and I think everyone should own a pair. I got mine at Target.
I'm still a Diet Coke lover, but I love this almost equally, and nothing makes my day like a really, really cold diet soda. In a cup with ice and a straw.
Who isn't obsessed with Great Harvest. Their Whole Wheat, Cinnamon, and White Chocolate Raspberry bread is enough to sustain me for life.
I watched this movie at Christmas with my family, and I adored it. Half of what I loved the most about this movie was the soundtrack.
Case in point. Love this song.

The video might be a little weird, and ya, I have no idea what she is saying, but couldn't you listen to it all day? Remind me someday to learn French. And Spanish. And Amharic.

Hope you enjoyed some of my current favorites. What are yours?

We had lunch at Great Harvest today, the first thing I do when I get to work is get diet DP from our cafe, and I wear a v-neck like that almost everyday too (when I get home from work of course)! Do you know that music video is the first lady of France? Can you imagine how people would come unglued if any of our first ladies did that?

And btw I like your random posts because I don't see you very often and this is what we would probably talk about.

I think Costco wipes might be one of the best inventions in the world. One time I used them to clean my whole house.

I haven't really left my house or PJ's for about 2 1/2 months but I am in desperate need of some new clothes and love those boyfriend cardigans...i have a few but with my little bulging belly I think i could use a few more :)

love me some boyfriend cardis. and my boyfriend sweats, of course.
and cannot make it through the day without at least one diet cherry pepsi and one piece of chocolate. currently, that would be a cadbury egg. but when my easter stock of candy runs out, it will be a peppermint york patty. im currently obsessed with those things.
