Onto today’s post, whenever I find something that works for me or makes my life easier, I LOVE to share it with you guys!
Here’s a few things I am loving…
Travel Silverware:
Every day, I bring my lunch or dinner to work. Sometimes it’s a sandwich, other times it’s snacks, but a lot of the time, it’s a soup, salad, or food from home. I was bringing in plastic silverware every night, but I hated that I was wasting it and throwing it out. I wanted reusable silverware that I could bring to work, clean and keep in my lunchbox. I found this set from Target and it has become a favorite. I love that it’s compactable, easy to clean and gets the job. The utensils are sharp enough to cut all kinds of food. I also like how they fit into one another. If you are looking for silverware for yourself to bring to work or for children to take to lunch. These are affordable and durable.
Car Cleaner:
My car is white which means it gets dirty easily and it shows. In the winter, it was getting so dirty with the snow, dirt and salt. I went to get it washed and it felt great to have a clean car, but then days later it was dirty once again. Instead of spending money every week to get it cleaned, I went to Target to get cleaner to do it myself. This was recommended to me and for $5, it has lasted me 6 weeks with still a lot more left. It’s an easy spray bottle. Just spray and use a soft cloth to clean. Ever since the pandemic started last March, I made it habit to sanitize and clean the inside of my car every week. Now, I’m cleaning both the inside and outside of my car, and it takes less than 15 minutes.
Libby:
I have started to read a lot more and I am loving it. I’ve been reading books I have around my house, but I am also a huge fan of the library. I love going to check out new books, browse and pick out new things to read. If I love them, great, if I don’t, then I can return them. Plus, there is something special about a community library. Our libraries have been closed due to Covid-19. Even though I haven’t been able to go to the library I have been able to check out books thanks to Libby! It’s an app you can get for your phone or iPad. You connect it to your local library and your library card and then you can checkout and download books to read. You can put books on-hold and renew them. I love that you can still support your local libraries and have your books with you wherever you go!
That’s just a few favorite things this month for me. What are some things you are loving this month?! Share them with me!
Have a great week!
