I’ve decided to do something new with my blog on Fridays. I realize that I tend to get a little deep and this will lighten things up a bit on my favorite day of the week. It’s funny how certain seemingly insignificant memories stay with you, but a situation that happened when I was a young pre-teen has stuck with me all of these years. I was attending a sleepover with a good friend and we were doing one of those cheesy quizzes from a teen magazine. The theme of the quiz was “Describe Your Best Friend”. The choices went something like this:
A. Fun and Frisky
B. Sporty and Sassy
C. Cute and Crazy
D. Deep
Now, I was praying that she would pick A, B or C, but I already knew the answer that she would pick because she knew me and I know me. D. Deep. So, on Fridays, I am going to keep it Fun and Frisky and get out of my D. Deep box. Since I have been a female head of household (and a rather large household) for going on 24 years, that make’s me a BIG consumer. On Fridays, I’m going to talk about a few products or services that make my heart sing. Please keep in mind that I only started this blog about a week or so ago, so I assure you that I am receiving no kickbacks. Further, as a brutally honest person, I could not recommend something to anyone, if I didn’t think it is 100 percent great. That is just not my style!
First products of Favorite Things Friday:
Smart Mouth Clinical DDS Activated Oral Rinse – I love, love, love this mouthwash. My husband and I both are coffee drinkers, we both love spicy foods (Mexican, Indian, Thai, etc.) and we put onions on our Costco hot dogs, as previously mentioned. We also love to kiss each other. We’ve tried a lot of mouthwashes over the years, but nothing compares to this stuff. We even buy the travel packets for when we go on trips. It’s expensive, but my mouth has NEVER felt cleaner.
L’Oreal Hydra Genius Daily Moisturizer – As an aging women, I’ve spent a lot of cash on various skin creams at all different price points and I probably will continue to do so, forever looking for that “miracle in a bottle.” This stuff isn’t a miracle, but let’s just say, I’m on my third bottle of it and the bottles last for a relatively long time. This moisturizer is the first one in a long time that makes my facial skin feel “plumped up” for longer than 3 minutes.
Mrs. Pasture’s Cookies for Horses – We have a little horse farm around the corner that we can walk to and my daughter’s tennis instructor has a couple of horses on her property. In an attempt to bribe them to come over to the fence and see me, I started with traditional apples, then moved on to some things I found at the local feed store. However, it wasn’t until I ordered Mrs. Pastures from Amazon, that the horses came stampeding. It’s like crack for horses. Even the horses that hate people turn into Mr. Ed for this stuff. My dogs like them, too.
I think three is a lucky number, so I’ll quit there. Come back on Favorite Things Fridays and I’ll let you know where else I’m spending my money.
Thanks for reading my blog! Have a great weekend!!
