Yes! Every time I see someone making NJ the butt of a joke, I feel the need to reply with a love letter to New Jersey, because it’s legit awesome and I love it 🤍

The link isn’t working for me - which Clarins foundation do you use? I’m always on the hunt for a new one!

Aldi is pretty good for certain things. I don’t care for their meat, and sometimes their produce is a little haggard, but things like oats, cooking oil, laundry detergent, etc are all pretty decent at Aldi. Plus they have jaffa cakes so I don’t need to get them on Amazon anymore! It saves me a good amount of money.

I’m not nuts about Amazon as a company, but I can’t deny how useful the Subscribe & Save feature is. I subscribe to a lot of things that I would otherwise have to run separate errands for - e.g., protein powder, skincare products, tea.

A pest control subscription has been great for me recently. Last year I moved out to a somewhat rural area, and the previous owners of this house had been ignoring some pest issues like mice in the basement and paper wasps outside. So we got a monthly subscription to a pest control service, and now anytime we have an issue, they come out and take care of it with no bill. It’s unlimited service, and has really been worth it!

Pedicures! They’re pretty inexpensive for a 45-minute escape from life to pamper yourself, and they can last weeks (well my toenails grow pretty fast, but I can usually get 2 weeks out of a pedi).

Travel-sized fragrances! Rather than buying a whole expensive bottle, you can get a variety of smaller bottles. They still last a long time, and now you have a bunch of scents to choose from. And perfume can really boost my mood :)

I love black licorice 🖤

I’m not entirely sure what Fae is (I’m guessing a fairy?) but I’m from a magical land called New Jersey so I’m pretty sure I’m human

Aw man you were robbed! RadioShack used to be seriously amazing, a hobbyist’s dream.

This is sweet 🥹

Oh my god furryosa is so cute!!

It’s got Gowron eyes

That’s dedication, well done you!

Sometimes that’s all we can do!

Thanks!

Awww 🖤

I’ve got an overabundance of yellow squash too - can you please share the recipe? This looks good!

Wow! Despite no donkey pics, it sounds like this was a really fantastic visit for you. I’m wishing you all the luck!! 🤍

Watch out for bioplasmic energy

Relatable!

RadioShack, with the drawers of capacitors and resistors.

Wow, this made me realize I haven’t seen mayo in a glass jar in years.

I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve never completely figured out my skin tone! I’m pretty pale and I guess neutral-to-cool. Definitely not warm (which is why I don’t use orange very often) but I can never tell if I’m actually neutral or cool!

We’re having my husband’s family over for a BBQ this coming weekend, so I’m deep cleaning my house. (My house is always super clean but I’m neurotic!) So that’s one thing I want to do. I got most of the downstairs done yesterday, minus polishing the wood floors. Working on the upstairs today.

But on a more fun note, I got a new workbench for my woodworking project, so this week I’d like to finish building the second chair for my pergola area and get them both stained. The workbench should help make the pre-sanding step go faster!

Also I’ve been pushing myself out of my comfort zone with eye looks lately. I’m thinking I want to try something orange and pink - sort of sunset inspired. These are the palettes I’m thinking of playing with - anyone want to suggest which colors to use?
