Happy Weekend Friends! Summer is winding down here in the PNW and local schools start back on August 30th. As a former teacher, and Mom of three teachers, I know how much work it takes to prepare a classroom and lessons. Sending up prayers for all students, their parents and faculty; from Preschool age up through College!
I wasn't able to post yesterday so here's my list of favorites a day late:
1. Favorite Local Gift Shop: besides Charlie Barnes Kids, where I work...
I spied the adorable mug in the photo above at one of my favorite gift stores in Tacoma called Compass Rose. If you've never been, go! It's in the Procter District. I often wish I could Text Thor and tell him to COME HOME FOR BEDTIME!
2. Favorite New-to-me Beauty Product:
When I had my facial a couple weeks ago, my Esthetician told me I needed to use a gentle exfoliant three times a week. I found one that smells delicious, is gentle, affordable and all-natural. Fruit enzymes are good for skin too!
Since finishing the Whole 30 program, I've continued to be mindful about what I eat. I saw the Kettle Avocado Oil and Himalayan Salt Potato Chips and gave them a try. Yum! When you want a salty treat, try these!
4. Favorite Inexpensive Find (Especially for Chi Omegas!)
My college sorority symbol was owls, (CHI OMEGA FRATERNITY) and I still love them. I found a $9.00 owl top on the SHEIN website and it is as cute as it looks in the picture. I decided to send it to the dry cleaner like the tag recommended. They have some other fun owl products too. I need to give a shout out to my undergraduate chapter at Ball State. Phi Epsilon was given national recognition as a Chapter of Excellence! Way to go Sisters!!
5. Favorite Worship Song:
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and a song is in my head. This is one of those songs... "O Come to the Alter" by Elevation Worship from their album entitled "Here as in Heaven." Such a great message and beautiful tune!
As always, thanks for stopping by and reading SJL and remember to extend love and grace to those around you.
In His Grip,
