~Good morning! I hope everyone had a great weekend / Valentine’s Day.  It’s L’s Winter Break and B is off today for the Holiday so it’s not a normal Monday around here.  I don’t know what our plans are today, but it’s not going to involve anything outside since it’s FREEZING out again.

~Did you watch the SNL special last night?  I loved it. I mean some of it was slow, but there were times were B and I were laughing out loud! But here was ‘NSYNC??  WTF?  I guess those rumors they were going to perform weren’t true after all, (they were just in the audience). But seriously why did they have to mess with us all like that?  I really thought it was going to happen.

~We won’t be getting any mail today (it’s President’s Day), but I should have quite a few subscription boxes coming this week.  I am expecting BarkboxBespoke Post, bluum, The Bride BoxCitrus Lane, Frankie & Albert, ipsyKoala Crate, PetBox, Splendies and UrthBox for sure. I think I am the most excited for Frankie & Albert because I just have no idea what they will send me.  It could be anything.

~Did you see poor little North West freaking out at those fashion shows over the weekend?  The thought of sitting with WB at a show during Fashion Week is pretty terrifying.  No way.  Never!

~A few things I am loving right now: 1) Antiques Roadshow.  Every once in a while I catch this on PBS and I can’t take my eyes off it.  Some of these things people just happen to find in their attic?  Incredible.  I need an attic.  Well, I actually have one, but I am certain it doesn’t contain a $20,000 lamp! 2) Accure Organic Shampoo & Conditioner.  It works great, smells good and isn’t crazy expensive.  In fact, I noticed over the weekend that they sell it at Target now! 3) This Dog. This little dog walked 20 blocks to go find / visit his owner at the hospital.  Dogs are the best. 4) Royal Apothic Bubble Cream. This came in the January Little Lace  Box and I still can’t believe how much I love it.  I wish I could find these in a store around here somewhere so I could smell them all.  I actually just found the lip blamies / lip scrubbies set that used to be at Costco at TJ Maxx last week!  I wouldn’t be sad if more of their items pop-up there.and 5) Dresser Drawer Pulls / Knobs. I have been wanting to switch up the ones we have on our bedroom furniture and there are so many options!  I love the ones anthro has, but they are way too expensive.  Any ideas for some less expensive ones?

    p.s. i was going to get f&a and i saw horrible reviews 🙁 i’m going to wait and see what you got.

    I love the anthro dresser pulls as well, but so out of my price range. Hobby Lobby has a really good selection and they are on sale for 50% off often.

  4. Erin

    I came here to say hobby lobby for dresser pulls as well!

    Hi Jen!
    Home Goods had some awesome dresser pulls, I purchased these goldtone knobs, really well made & vintage inspired, it was a pack of 6 for $9.99. Score! But I guess it varies on which Home Goods have what at the time.

    Random question, but I was wondering if you were planning on selling any of the mixed boxes of Spark again anytime soon? I am thinking about doing the challenge and I’m pretty picky about sugar free tasting drinks (if that even makes sense…) and I was wanting to try them all.
    Thanks!

      I might actually have enough of all of the flavors to do one! Let me look and I will reply back!

        Thank you!

          Another question…. are there ever any sales on the 24day package?

    I’m not an SNL person per se but we did watch last night. It was really good and the opening rocked. Of course I too was looking for NSync. Why must they tease us like that. LOL
    Oh I’ll have to check out Target for Accure. I did like the ones I got in my party box last year. I normally use BedHead but I feel its just not doing it for me lately and I’m sure it is all the shampoo and conditioner fault and has nothing to do with me not getting a haircut in over a year 😉

    I got mine at world market. They always have coupons and have some similar ones to anthro. I just bought a few every time I got a coupon

    Who brings a baby to a fashion show? It’s cold here and all the schools that weren’t closed today for President’s Day closed today because of the weather. Enjoy your time with your boys.

    I think I have BarkBox, Splendies, Love with Food, Bramble Box and Quarterly Ariana Huffington arriving this week.

    We’ve got like, no stores around here, so let me third Hobby Lobby! They have great ones, and they’re half off like, half the time!
