Books and Reading
Saving money while building my library is an oxymoron, right?
I love KU. It fits my reading style in terms of quantity (I'm easily a book per week) and it has introduced me to authors I would never have heard of otherwise. If you read 3 or more books per month, and you are open to a variety of genres, it's prob...
Kindle Unlimited (Sign Up for a Free Trial)

Canva: Visual Suite for Everyone
Love. This. App. Down. I’m especially in love with its cinematic filters and vintage presets. I can quickly edit my content without editing skills.

Absolute must haves to create the life you are meant to have.
You would think I’m a yearly subscriber for the makeup and beauty products, but no. Dinnerware, drinkware, kitchen gadgets, and comfy loungewear and house slippers are endgame for me. The most exciting part of the experience is choosing what items yo...
