my 6 favs

have you seen that t-mobile commercial where the guy is trying to leave a message for this girl after their first date? he is so nervous, and self concious leaving it that he re-records himself like 10 times. i crack up at that commercial every time i see it. i'm pretty sure it's for t-mobile's semi-new my five favs plan.

i've been thinking of some of my favorite things that i use day to day and wanted to share them with you. i always love reading what other's consider their favorite things, and while this post is not coinciding with Oprah's favorites, that's okay by me.


this is my new dash and albert rug that warms my kitchen with its luxury (as well as my feet while washing dishes). while expensive, this company has some of the most fabulous patterns...and they seem to hold up well also (much better than the one we had from potterybarn).


we made this purchase (with 20% off- thanks, bed bath and beyond) within 6 months of getting married. we had my SIL's old vacuum and it began spitting the dust back out onto freshly cleaned surfaces. not to mention, cole and avery shed quite a bit. this vacuum is amazing, and i love the attachments- i can efficiently clean door frames, window frames, window treatments, couch cushions, floors, etc.


this is a sample of the return address stamp that i got for christmas. i love this thing. i recommend it for anyone that enjoys sitting down and writing letters (like me). there are a million designs to pick from and you can order one through swoozies. my sister (who's a graphic designer) also gave me some fabulous return address labels with my monogram (she designed them herself- she has unbelievable talent!). when i run out of those, my stamper will suffice!


while moving is expensive, it is also very rewarding. we picked out a pair of these for the laundry "closet." ours are white and they are awesome. definitely money well spent. i recommend you start saving now.


santa brought me three flavors of sprinkles cupcake mix. hands down, these are the best cupcakes you will ever, EVER eat. not to be wasted on childrens' immature tastebuds, i'd serve these at a dinner party.


while i love bath and body works' white tea and ginger moisturizing hand soap, this soap by thymes is awesome. i'll wash my hands even when i don't need to if it means making them smell so fabulous.
