Hey guys! I’m so sorry this blog is a litttttle bit late but better late than never. It’s still june!! So I made it haha. I love doing these “favorites” blogs every month for you guys. They’re fun to type, share what I love and why I love it and you guys get to find new things! It’s a win-win.
I also want to point out that this post may contain affiliate links.
I genuinely love these items/products/recipes and I’m here to share them with the world.
Okay, first! I want to start with these Reusable Ziplock Bags. This year I made it a goal to have less waste and a better impact on the environment. Some days I do really well and others I’m still figuring out. It’s a journey for sure guys. These ziplock bags are super affordable on amazon and they are used DAILY. I LOVE THEM. Tom uses the medium sized ones for his sandwiches every day and says they are great. His sandwiches are soft, they stay fresh, and he has no complaints. I use the small bags for veggies I cut up and they stay fresh! The larger ones I usually store my homemade muffins in or cookies and they stay super soft like they were fresh baked, out of the oven. You can’t beat that.
The bags have not held a smell from the food but I have not had anything super potent in them. I do store bananas in my freezer in the small ones and they do not smell like bananas. Onions, meat, and anything that has a strong smell I have not stored in these.
The bags are very easy to clean. I just use regular soap and water and hand wash them. I set them up to stay open in the dish drainer.
These have been such a great investment! And a very affordable one too.
Next, I want to talk about my Blue Blocker Glasses. Again, a wonderful investment. If you stare at a computer all day like I do, I recommend getting a pair of these bad boys to protect your eyes. Since wearing these, I have no headaches/migraines from the bright lights. My eye’s no longer hurt either. I would complain to tom every day that my eyes and head hurt so bad. He pushed me to make the purchase. They are very inexpensive and there are so many colors! I got the floral ones and they are beautiful.
The glasses also come with a cute little case to store them in and a thick cloth to clean them.
Protein Oat Bites have been a life saver. Sometimes I get too caught up with what I’m doing and “in the zone” that I forget to eat until my stomach is yelling at me. I am in love with these little guys. They are so easy to make and quick to grab when I need a fast snack. I definitely plan to make these for our camping trip next month to snack on in the car and on our hike.
You Are A Badass is by far one of my favorite self development books. I reread it alllll the time and I happen to be finishing it up now for the 143479348 time which is why it’s on this list.
It’s one of those easy reads like the author is having a conversation with you and you will breeze through it chapter by chapter. I even send this to my clients and I highly recommend it to everyone.
Last month I also received my swim suits from Romwe (Shein/Zaful.. it’s all the same). I finally got to wear them and test them out in the pool and I must say I love them! I love that the straps are adjustable and the smalls are true to size. Reading the reviews helps a ton when ordering from companies like this. I ordered from Romwe and they came in Shein packaging lol. That’s how I realized they’re all the same.
I only had an issue with the band that goes around my rib cage being a little loose when I tried it on but that’s such a simple fix. I didn’t have an issue with it in the water though so I may just leave that alone.
I’ve also been loving my Ozark Thermos. I take it everywhere I go and I am completely obsessed. I left it in my car the other day in the 90 degree heat we’ve been having here in NY and it was still cold over an hour later!!
I plan to bring this on our camping trip next month as well. I actually bought it because of our trip but I’ve been wanting one for awhile anyway so I can stop drinking out of my blender bottles. They make my water taste like plastic after awhile and that just can’t be healthy.
And dassit guys! These are my absolute favorites this month and I am so happy and grateful for everything I listed here. I hope you guys give everything a try. I promise you will be just as hooked as I am. Life changers.
Enjoy!!
