I'm totally over the Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Ok, pick your chin up off the ground. It's not that I DON'T like them anymore, I'm just kinda over it. Maybe I've had my fill, maybe they've just become "too" popular, I don't know. But I have a new favorite.
Peppermint White Mocha, and Peppermint White Hot Chocolate.
Yum.
Now, before you tell me that "white" chocolate is not actually "chocolate," I must tell you this - I. don't. care. It's GOOOOD!!!
Another favorite thing at Starbucks is the traditional Cranberry Bliss Bar. I've made a simple, low cal version (sort of) at home with my kids that they love. But if you want the real thing, here's a great recipe - Cranberry Bliss Bar Recipe.
Movin' right along...
Philosophy Gingerbread Man Shampoo, Body Wash and Bubble Bath is simply AWESOME. I love this stuff.
"it's wonderful when a guy doesn't say, "just relax," but rather, "let me help you relax." and so it is with the gingerbread man. he cleans, he soothes, he caresses, he pampers and he loves me unconditionally. when i'm stressed out, he turns me inside out with warm ginger bubble baths that help me float away. the gingerbread man nourishes my soul from the tip of my nose to my little baby toe."
Am I the only one who finds this completely hysterical?? Just reading the bottle makes this stuff worth it!
It's no secret I love MAC makeup.
My favorite - Creensheen Glass Boy Bait lip gloss. And they NEVER HAVE IT. I usually have to buy it online because the makeup counter is almost always out. I never leave home without it.
Bath and Body has a new scent called "Be Enchanted." What an amazing smell! They describe it as a sparkling blend of frosted petals and iced pomegranate. I do not like strong scents, especially strong floral scents, but this one is just right. The perfect combination of sweet and slightly musky. I bought the a few of the sample $1 sizes when it first came out, but I need to go back and stock up because they ALWAYS discontinue my favorite scents. sigh.
Last but not least, I love Hallmark Christmas ornaments. It's a tradition to add a new one to the tree each year. I know, they're expensive, but they come in a cute little box! Here's my favorite this year:
"I love you to the moon and back."
From the children's book, Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney
When my son was little, we read this book every single night before bed. It was our ritual, and this will definitely be added to our tree this year.
Ok, that's it!
Ok, so that's not "it," it's just all I had time to share right now. Oh wait, I have to share this from my wishlist -
How freaking cute is that??? It's from Urban Outfitters. Yes, please.

Love the iHome. So cute!
ReplyDeleteI usually get the Peppermint Mocha, but I will give the "white" one a shot next time I go:)
ReplyDeletetotally agree about the pumpkin spice...not a fan. especially when the winter drinks are awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm always the purist, insisting that white chocolate is NOT chocolate but rather a, ugh, *confection*. But it won't stop me from eating it either. LOL The gingerbread shampoo sounds great! My hubby makes bath and body products and my current FAVE is a perfume he calls Cookieba. OMG I could drink it! I put it on just before getting into the elevator just to see what people will say. heehee ~Pepper
ReplyDeleteGreat favorites! I especially love the peppermint mochas from starbucks and the be enchanted smell is my new fav. from bath and body works as well :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays!
LOVE your list!!! I honestly think we must be kindred spirits because I love every single thing on your list! (And I'm going to shop for that lip gloss right now!)
ReplyDeleteSo nice to 'meet' you today! I blog at "Only A Breath" and would love for you to stop by and visit :)
Hugs!

Oh, my gosh, I am going to have to try a white chocolate peppermint mocha now! White mochas are my absolute favorite... with white chocolate caramel mocha's coming in on a close second. Pumpkin spice is great for the first day of fall, but... it has kind of lost it's charm on me, too :)
ReplyDeleteThat gingerbread man soap sounds lovely, too!
:)
I love that ipod docking station from Urban Outfitters...I think it's going on my wishlist!
