This is a list of things we use and love. Things that make our life easier or enrich it somehow. You'll find it's mostly about convenience and comfort. We love reading and eating, obviously. 😉

I'm originally from the Hudson Valley area and these are places we've loved for years or recently discovered on trips home. Mostly shopping and restaurants as my favorite things to do are shop and eat. 🤣

For the reader in your life! 😉 These are bookish items, merch and accessories that I either use myself or send to people as gift ideas. Mostly my favorited items from etsy and other small businesses.

This is a collection of what we are definitely buying, asking for and hoping for someday. 😂 Things we know we love or we would recommend based on what our kids are into this year.

This is a list of small businesses we have supported and continue to support due to either their offerings and/or their fabulous customer service. Most of these businesses are kid related as I am a mom afterall. 🤣 We highly recommend checking any of these places out kids or not though!

These are some of our favorite curricula, resources and books for homeschooling. We are currently teaching elementary and middle school. We are secular and eclectic so there's a good mix of things, I think.

I tend to read a LOT of thrillers so this is a few of my absolute favorites. These books are either extremely well written, intense and consuming, twisty as heck or have just stayed in the back if my mind for some reason or another. If you're looking to get into thrillers, this list is a great place to start! I'm slowly dipping my toes into horror as well and will be adding those recs to this list as well.

The absolute best romance. A little spice here and there, but nothing really dark or "too much". 😉

These are books we have read aloud together that have been wildly successful and my littles would recommend! I will keep updating this list as we go and quote my kids whenever possible. ☺️

These are products I use and love. I have what seems to be very picky skin and so these products have come to me affer extensive research. I only recommend products I use and love myself. I have also moved from Florida to New England so this list will evolve as I now have much dryer conditions and actual seasons to work around!

These are my ALL TIME favorite reads. I consider myself to be a pretty avid reader. I have a small instagram following where I review upcoming novels and I like to focus on quality over quantity. I read all genres, some more than others of course, so this list is not just fluffy romance. Some books here have stuck with me my entire life or I have read countless times and still love them.

This is a list of our favorite places to visit locally, or not, in Florida. Mostly restaurants, cause we love to eat, but everything is kid friendly!
