How gorgeous is this color?? I like a crossbody that isn't too bulky but still fits everything I need. And I'm excited that this color will go well for Fall too!

I became obsessed with this sunscreen recently and I will only be using this from now on. I never have to worry about white streaks being left behind too :)

I cook on this at least 4x a week in order to reduce the heat inside! There are days when I use it for all 3 meals!
Blackstone 4-Burner Outdoor Griddle
 
Laura Ellis profile picture
I can't recommend the Blackstone without also mentioning this cover! I don't like a big grill cover because I don't have a place to put it when I'm using the grill. This is a perfect tool to have instead! It folds up!!
