Stuff I Like, Lately

Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer in Fig. Because who doesn’t love Burt’s Bees in the first place? (My sis in-law Amber gave me a bottle of their Milk & Honey lotion for Christmas once, and I felt pampered all year long.) I’m not a big fan of gooey, shiny, sparkly lip glosses, so this fits the bill perfectly: it’s their normal lip balm with just enough color added in.

Heather Bailey’s Hooray for Headbands pattern (a free PDF!). I made one from some of my apron scraps in about half an hour, and it is so much fun to wear. Except that I feel like I can’t wear it with my apron because it would be too matchy-matchy. I meant to make one for L during naptime today, but, well, you know how that goes.

The Greek Gods Yogurt, pomegranate flavor. It’s too pricey and too fattening to be anything more than an occasional treat, but daaaaang, it’s good.

And speaking of pomegranates, The Full Spectrum has a beautiful silkscreened pomegranate tunic in her Etsy shop. (Other favorites: goldfish, jellyfish, pelican. A girl can dream, right?) Me likey.

Socks. I’ve been wearing them to bed the past few nights – a sure sign that change is in the air. It feels nice to snuggle down at night and drink tea in the morning again, even though the prospect of losing summer is a bit of a sad one.
