January 2020 Empties
Happy Black History Month readers! How are you celebrating freedom? I haven't quite figured what I'm doing myself but perhaps a toe-dipping into canvassing for my candidate is in order. Just thinking about it is giving me cramps, but I guess when you're always overthinking, you gotta not sometimes 😅 I'd been trying to make …
Maple Holistics Silk18 Shampoo
Hello readers, what's your quick pick-me-up? Maple Holistics provided products in this blog. I know we should know better than to put any worth into physical appearance, but I can see how treating oneself to something like a haircut or manicure can make one feel fancy and ready to take on the world.

Tree to Tub
Hi readers, do you enter online contests? If you do, you probably get signed up for newsletters or sent other offers, right? Twenty percent off $80 is kind of a waste of time for me. But sometimes you might find something as I did with Tree to Tub! Tree to Tub started when founder Michael …

Hey readers, do you get dry skin? I was originally going to post my monthly picks today, but Vina over at Chimocolate posted about her pretty L'Occitane serum.

June 2018 Empties
Hey followers, did you remember to do that thing? I totally forgot about doing "empties" posts. Probably because I've been trying to cut back on spending and waiting to have enough for a collective post! So apologies that I didn't write down my findings like a scientist and that some reviews may be vague or …

September 2017 Target Beauty Box
https://youtu.be/Rm9_V0epjBQ This post contains affiliate links. Hi readers, one of the survey sites I use redid their system, and everyone had to cash out their points. I traded some for Target gift cards thinking that I could save them for the holidays but couldn't resist trying a Target Beauty Box. I've gotten to it late …
Spring Wishlist
Is it just me or is it easier to spend money when you don't have it? LOL. Or at least daydream about spending it. Then when I get money, I really got to prioritize what I actually want to spend it on... Now that I have a little birthday money, I have the chance to buy something fun, …
