Things I Love & Recommend

Charles Ramsey

I’m sorry but Charles Ramsey is freakin hilarious. 

I don’t know what it is about this song, but it really energizes me. 

My cousin recently came back from Japan and brought back boxes of these Green Tea Kit Kats - they are hands down the best candy I’ve ever had in my life. They make regular Kit Kats taste like garbage. Ok jk, but seriously, try these if you can. 

On repeat.

Walks Like Rihanna - The Wanted

Call me crazy but grocery shopping is one of my favorite things to do. Why, you ask? Because I like to peruse the aisles and check out new products. It’s kind of therapeutic for me. Trader Joe’s is one of my favorite grocery stores because it offers fancy items at relatively low prices. The quality is great and the return policy is awesome - if you don’t like it, you can return the item (opened, ripped, empty), no questions asked.

Trader Joe’s can be a little overwhelming to a first-timer so here are some of my top recommendations for products offered at the store: 

Roasted Coconut Chips

Now these are addicting…they are thinly sliced mature coconut morsels that are soaked in coconut juice. When you bite into a piece it tastes creamy, sweet, and a little salty. I like to eat them out of the bag but I’m sure they would be delicious on ice cream, cake, or pudding.

Goodbye 2012! 2013 is going to be my year…

Because YOLO. 

Now that Fall has arrived, it’s time to whip out those legwarmers. Don’t have a pair? Don’t worry - these are very cheap and easy to make. Just follow the simple directions below:

1. Grab an old knitted sweater (if you don’t have one, they sell them at thrift stores for under $5)

2. Gather ribbon at least 1” wide or find a scarf you are willing to cut into two 1” strips

3. Cut off both arms of the sweater. Weave the ribbon at the wide end of the sleeves

4. Repeat with other leg warmer
