  This Decomposition Notebook is one of the best things I've ever seen. I laughed out loud all over the store where I found this and bought a smaller one that would fit into my purse. It makes me very happy.    This mirror from my high school locker. I can't get rid of it. It's so 80s and pink. For whatever reason I continue to keep it. I get it out and try to toss it but can't. At this point it's vintage so I should keep it.    This tea set that I got at an auction for $5 It also came with dessert plates. I love this thing. I've used it a bunch of times and its addition made me get rid of several teapots that I had sitting in my hutch that I never used. I'm much better off with this one.  This Nancy Drew silhouette tee-shirt. I don't actually own this but I want to. I am unable to find one to purchase though. I've scoured the Internet but there are none to be found. 

Several years ago my husband surprised me with a gift of an electric blanket. This is not something I was expecting as we normally don't give each other gifts. Side note: gifts are not my thing. Giving or receiving. I know some people (my daughter) love gifts but I'm just, meh. This gift, however, totally what I needed in my life. I love my electric blanket. It has separate settings for both side of the bed and I don't even plug his in because I know he won't use it. I crank my side up to ten before I climb in. Do you know how wonderful it is to climb into a warm bed on a cold night? It's like being in a cocoon of warm. It. Is. The. Best. Now that I have this amazing life-changing apparatus I don't ever want to be without one. What is one thing you don't ever want to be without?

Deep Steep is one of my favorite product lines. They are natural products with ingredients I trust, at affordable prices. I always seek these out when I visit my favorite store, TJ Maxx. This line isn't sold anywhere locally (that I know of) and I usually have luck finding it at TJ Maxx. This snowflake scent pictured above is a delightful surprise. It is light and vanilla-y with hints of something I can't quite remember.  This body wash gives a nice lather and you only need a little to cover your entire body. I. Love. This. Stuff.  I've tried some of their other products, and I also enjoy using the body lotions and foot creams. Not real thrilled with their body scrub though, it is really thick and covers the bottom of the tub/shower stall with a thick, slippery, deadly sheen.  I first discovered Deep Steep on a trip to Cape May at least a decade ago. It was tucked into the corner of a little boutique. I bought some grapefruit bergamot hand lotion in a stick. It smell...
