~How was your weekend? We had a pretty good one here. Michigan State won so that put me in a good mood and so did the insane amount of sleep I got. That was so nice! B got some work done in the garage (he added insulation so he can work on his car out there this winter without freezing) and L had a complete ball playing outside on the giant piles of dirt from all the new houses going up around here. And we all had a nice dinner at Nordstrom Cafe Saturday night and checked out the Christmas lights at the outdoor mall. Every restaurant at the mall had an insane wait, but the Nordies cafe came through. Don’t tell anyone, but that place never has a wait. Ever.
~Don’t forget that the Limited Edition Holiday GLOSSYBOX launches today! I will be on a field trip with L this morning, so I won’t get a chance to post about it till later. But keep your eyes on GLOSSYBOX if you are interested!
~This week I am expecting Austin Lloyd, Barkbox, bluum, Citrus Lane, Googaro, Little Lace Box, Love With Food, Phone Case of the Month, True Drool and Urthbox for sure. There are also a few showing up in my USPS Dashboard that I can’t figure out what they are. On one hand that thing is awesome because I know how many boxes are coming and when. And not so awesome because I can’t always figure out what they are!
~I found the new Creme Brûlée Vaseline at Target over the weekend and I really liked it. Like I REALLY liked it. It smells good and tastes good too. I also picked up the Chapstick Mixstix Vanilla Candy Cane Milkshake Lip Balm and thought that was great too. I highly recommend the both. Good stuff.
~I’m just curious (and maybe doing a little holiday giveaway research), but what are you asking for / hoping to get for the holidays this year? L always asks Santa for nail polish and slippers for me, so I should be all set ;).
~I am this close to buying matching pajamas for everyone in the family this year. I already bought these yesterday for L, WB and Baxter (as you can see in my Instagram), but I feel like the rest of us need them too. I know, it’s super cheesy, but I like cheesy sometimes!
~B and I watched “The Longest Week” with Olivia Wilde and Jason Bateman last night (it’s a $0.99 rental on iTunes right now if you want to see it) and let me just say that I was not a fan. B wasn’t either. It looked so promising in the previews and we both thought it was going to be awesome. And yeah, it wasn’t.
~If you missed it this weekend, I am giving away a November PopSugar box here and you can check out the first spoiler for the Winter 2014 FabFitFun box here!
What’s up for your Monday? Any big plans this week? And of course, what subscription boxes are you expecting?
Omg. I loooove the family pjs!! Just ordered some, but every collection seemed to have either my husbands or my size sold out:( keeping my fingers crossed that they restock!
I swear people get those holiday pjs snatched up so early!
Got them! Meant having to send my mom out on a Target run (since no stores in my area were stocking them), but am super excited! Just had a baby this year and was really happy/surprised to see they carried all the pjs in infant sizes too (well, 12 months… but we’ll make it work:)
We had a great weekend too! Trans Siberian Orchestra is amazing! The boys and I love eating at Nordstrom cafe although ours has a line every once in awhile. I actually saw the creme brulee vaseline at Target and was surprised.
Boxes this week – Nerd Block, Nerd Block Jr, Hero Crate, Little Lace Box, Goodebox, BarkBox. Maybe Bare Bliss, KloverLeaf, Petit Vour, and Gourmet Body Treats.
That’s where I picked mine up!
I asking for a Clarisonic and an IPad slip cover, also a Scrabble deluxe board!
Those family PJ’s are awesome – now my kidlets would NOT wear them because it’s so uncool. So far this morning, dragged my sick kid to the vet as our Keely (lab) split the top of her paw open on something. She got lidocane, stitches and antibiotics and is resting with a sock secured to her. Went to Detroit, mailed two packages, picked up my wantables, back to Canada got my new glasses and the old ones fixed too. Home and in comfy clothes and just enjoyed a hot chocolate. It’s my last day of the end of the year vacation for me. I have laundry to do and figure something for supper that a sick teen will eat…soup…
Oh no! I hope everyone is better!
How funny that you mentioned the Nordstrom Cafe. I’d completely forgotten about it. I used to eat there with friends during the half yearly sale but, since having two kids, I’ve become more of a Target gal. And I love it!
It is such a hidden gem!
On my Christmas list this year: Tiffany knot earrings in gold (I need a good gold pair of earrings because most my nice ones are white gold), a new black pea coat, Nutcracker ballet tickets, and a cashmere hat. What’s on yours?
Did Birchbox say they were going to release some additional LE boxes this holiday season?
I don’t really know of they are or not?? I hope they surprise us with one though!
I don’t have too much really on my list! Maybe some Starbucks gifts cards and the best of the vessel set from the Birchbox Vanity Affair box.
