These are so late that I almost didn’t post. ALMOST. But I figured, why not?
April:
Boxed Wine: So I might have fallen into the quarantine trap of drinking wine every single night… and afternoon. I’m kicking the habit now but if I’m being honest this was pretty high up there in April!
Milano Cookies – I didn’t eat much in April, being a tad bit depressed. One thing I did munch on was these cookies. I may have suffered from a decreased appetite, but even then I didn’t want to miss dessert!
Ahava Hydration Cream Mask – Did anyone else suffer from the extreme dryness of quarantine skin? Because I did and this product helped bring some moisture back into my face.
The Internet – When you can’t go outside nothing screams entertainment more than surfing the net. I think I would’ve expired from boredom if this pandemic had happened in the early nineties.
Law & Order: SVU – Basically the show I survived on in April. I’ve watched multiple seasons and still am probably ten seasons from finishing it. It’s the show that keeps giving, and giving, and giving!
May:
UnderArmour Walking Shoes – Started the habit of walking around my neighborhood twice a day just so I can remember what the wonder magical world of “outside” was like. These shoes are uber comfortable and have upped my game!
Tatcha Dewy Luminous Skin Mist – I did a huge splurge and bought SO MUCH TATCHA. I love it all but I particularly love the skin mist. It’s instant glow in a posh can.
Christian Louboutin Decollette Pumps – Okay, so I splurged, and got the shoes I’ve been lusting over. I was able to snag an almost new pair from Poshmark for $180. Still pricey? Yes. But also under my $250 shoe limit. I’m justifying the purchase by reminding myself they are iconic classics that will never go out of style and I will wear them for twenty years. At least. They’re red soled bottoms!
Smoothies – I started making my own homemade smoothies consisting of spinach, mixed frozen berries, a banana, water and…. a wee bit of Metamucil. What? The Metamucil gives it a nice orangey tang! Honestly, these are delicious, and I feel like my skin is breathing every time I drink one of these (which goes to show how much awful stuff I eat on a daily basis!)
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck – I have this oversized book that looks like it belongs to a giant. I was reading this in May (loved it) and my obsession with leather-bound books was very much appeased upon obtaining this!
June:
Tom Ford Jennifer Sunglasses – Yes, another PoshMark purchase. Me and the fiancé have been taking our long walks and I feel oh-so-high class when I wear these.
Costco Cheese Bagels – I love having these with avocado. Its become a must have everyday or I get a little cranky and go into withdrawal!
My Cats – These little goofballs have kept me smiling, from head butting me awake every morning to purring madly every time I walk into the room.
My Friends – We’ve managed to keep in contact and our keep sanity. I am so grateful that we have all been willing to put in the work to keep our friendships strong during this trying time of social distancing!
My Man – Even though we’ve been cooped up together for 3 months, this guy still wants to marry me. He’s one in 7 billion, and I can’t believe my luck that I’m with him.
I’m also experiencing extreme dryness during quarantine – in the weirdest places… on my thighs. Ahem, back upper thighs. I think it’s from sitting so much. Also, those cheese bagels need to exist where I live. They don’t, that I know of, but they NEED to.
