Here are some of my favorite picture books from my own childhood! I was an early reader and I read a LOT! I hope you'll find some of these recomendations useful! I still love these books today.

These are some books I loved from late elementary school - middle school!! Reading was a huge part of my life and I hope you'll find these recomendations interesting! I have them seperated between series/box sets and books that you can read on their own! 📖📚

Books I love that are VERY underrated. Mostly young adult fiction! All books on this list would be good for middle school and up!

I loved books when I was growing up, including assigned school reading! I divided this list into sections, going from elementary school to college. I studied poetry and theater in college, so make sure to check this list out if you like those. I think all books are valuable, and there's some real classics here I think everyone should read! 📕📘📓

This is what I use for livestreaming! I primarily do VTubing and other types of faceless streams!

I watch a TON of YouTube. Sadly, I think a lot of YouTubers can be kind of fake or two-faced. These are some of my favorite YouTubers who have stood the test of time of being genuine, kind, funny, and intreresting!! I watch a lot of different categories, but mostly gaming, art, and classic (i.e. challenge) content! I hope you can find some new YouTubers to enjoy from my list. 💻📱🎬

I own a small business and today I will share my fave items with YOU!!! I sell online and at artist alleys!

Here are some art supplies I'm constantly reaching for! I primarily paint, but I'm including other recomendations here for different crafts and all sorts of drawing supplies!

I love shopping from small businesses!! Here are some of my faves. I mostly buy enamel pins or things with a kawaii theme!!

I am a Colorado native who LOVES to thrift!! Here are places I recomend.

As a Colorado native, these are some of my favorite things and places that Colorado has to offer! You will love these places (and if you don't... I am sorry).

The San Luis Valley in Colorado has a lot of cool places if you know where to look! Whether you're just visiting or you're a local, here are some places and events to check out!

I am a BIG fan of games!!! Party games are my favorites. Some of these have been household favorites since childhood!

I had a phase where I played a TON of indie RPGMaker games! Mostly horror ones. I hope you find something you love here!! Please check the content warnings for each game. Most of these games have remastered paid versions now, but you can play the original translated versions for free still!

Some of my favorite games I've played in all my years on steam! I generally like games that are easy on the eye, not too complex to play, and have interesting storylines. I have them sorted into single player and multiplayer if you want to play with your friends!

I'm a huge enamel pin fan, and have quite the collection! Here are some of my faves!! All of them feature animals (there's a few Pokemon, but those count, right?). Mostly bunnies, cats, and dogs!

I'll try and add pins for a bunch of fandoms, but the ones I'm personally in will have a pretty big showing! I have a bit of an enamel pin addiction at this point, hahaha

I try not to buy mystery toys toooo much because they can be kinda addicting, but here are some I just LOVE!!!!

I am a very avid snacker. My favorites are anything cheesy, but I will truly eat anything that's delicious!! 🧀 I love popcorn, chips, and crackers!🍿 I also put some sweet treats on here that you can find in the snack aisle. 🍪 (I know where people get their food varies. All links here are to Target! Most of these snacks are available at any grocery store though!)
