Well, its that time again.. (lets just pretend that i didn't miss October)
that would just be a big rant about sweet treats and the stresses keeping me from my love of blogging so lets skip that by and enjoy the fav's of November!
I love November, its the time when festive spirits start filling the air- the light snow begins to fall and we are preparing our homes, hearts and calendars for the busyness and Joy of December. So lets jump in!
This months favourites are all over the map- but thats part of the fun..
First All- life has been a little scattered for me with nights away from home and distance from my family- so this in turn when i get to be home it has made me really appreciate home. There really is nowhere like it. So upon coming home- i have been burning this DIVINE candle from none other than Bath & Body Works. This 'Mulled wine' inspired candle would not have been one i would have grabbed if it didn't have the word apple in its fragrance notes...
(I'm a sucker like that)
Anyway its fragrant and unique & What feels more home-y than a flickering candle...
Along with being in and out i haven't had the 'luxury' (as i call it these days) of making a lot of home cooked meals. I have been relying on the old stand by- M&M Meat Shops
But not just for anything - for CABBAGE ROLLS!
THEY ARE AMAZING. Lord have mercy
(they don't always taste better when you don't have to put in the effort)
They taste fresh and maintain their shape and consistency well. Theres enough sauce too- sauce is always important!!! A must try for a quick, cook free night!
This next product is lovely.
When something makes cleaning better- its a fav. This Clean Everything Cleaner
is a lavender scented all-purpose cleaner. Bonus it isn't just enviro and child friendly, its gentle, safe and cleans great. I love an all purpose. This is great for this seasons germmies and cleans toys and counters like a lavender dream. A little pricey- $8.50 CAD but its a large bottle and it seemed to last quite awhile.
My next favourite is a new regular on our coffee table- also its a classic that has allowed me to relive my childhood and it hasn't lost its sparkle.
Hungry, Hungry Hippos is actually the perfect game for my almost 3 year old. Its simple enough for him to understand and loud enough to be 'cool'.
We are really enjoying some screen free fun with this one- i think growing our child-friendly game collection is whats on the wish list for Santa this year.
This next child product is relatively new to me- vitamins that are gummies?!?
Have i been living under a rock? well - yea..
My tiny guy always took vitamins no problem but these make my little feel like he is getting a reward and that reward itself is good!
Costco makes these babies- I'm sure there are numerous ones out there- so leave a comment on tips for my next bottle!
This sweet bottle of ginger bliss is Origins Ginger burst body wash
Let me tell you- it is divine. Its like having a shower with tiny gingerbread angels!!!
This body wash is the perfect scent for this holiday season and it works well to moisturize and leave you feeling clean (and slightly more delicious)
Here is that all over the map thing i was talking about... My new Christmas tree! (fa la la la la la la)
I have been searching for awhile for a skinny and tall christmas tree- we are going to do a larger real one in our downstairs but i don't have a lot of room on my main floor and of course- i can't wait till December to put up a tree (crazy)
So I found her-here she is the 7 ft Cashmere Skinny Christmas tree from Michaels.
Its pre-lit and has a really nice detail to the branches, it almost glows and takes up very little space- so if your looking for a space saving tree- Michael's usually has great deals and this is a good choice!
My last item- is probably one of my most favourite items ever- its the Mom-on-the-go Planner from 'In the Leafy Treetops'
This planner may be on the big side (they make a smaller version too) but it does it all! Budgeting, Meals, vacations, wish lists, planning, holidays, inspiration. it is amazing.
There are options for add-ons and custom covers and I'm so happy i went with this one. I know there are Erin Condren lovers out there- but this one just seems a little less put together (life in reality!)
So there it is- my short and sweet list for my top favs from this month.
Hope you enjoyed and i have encouraged you into a few new products.
Have a wonderful week!
