I thought it would be fun to share our favorites from each week. I normally cook something new that I want to share or maybe it is a recipe we have on repeat. I also see a lot when I am shopping online for clients or have companies reach out to me with great products that I think you would be interested in. So here is what has caught our eye this past week and some of our favorite things-
This was Lola’s favorite part of the week SPRINKLES! I wish that sprinkles or really anything made me as excited as sprinkles make Lola. We made some no-bake cookies and I put them in muffin tins and let the girls go crazy with the sprinkles. We did have to literally dump off the sprinkles before I shared them with friends at their pool. But they were SO tasty and healthy…minus the sprinkles.
Here is how we normally make these cookies, or you can do them Lola’s way- covered in sprinkles!
1 cup of prepared PB2 (or regular peanut butter, PB2 is 90% less fat than regular peanut butter, you can find it HERE)
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup maple syrup
Heat the above ingredients until combined, then add-
2 tsp vanilla
6 TBLS unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/4 cups quick cook oats
I used a little scoop and placed on my marble cutting board and smashed them down with the bottom of a cup and let them cool.
They make about 32 cookies and they are about 100 calories each. (I store my in the fridge, they keep longer).
Finn’s favorite is THIS Happy Baby Wrap. I honestly didn’t wear my girls as babies. I had a little Bjorn that I would wear when we went hiking but never a wrap. They looked stressful to me! But after I practiced wrapping the wrap without putting him it it several times I felt comfortable to place him in it. I had seen a picture of a celebrity and in the magazine they were saying that she wore him too low. I made sure to keep him at “kissable height”. I have worn him several times around the house, out shopping and on our walk to the park. Finn loved it every time with no fussing.
BTW we were shopping at one of my favorite stores, Shop Terrain, owned by Anthropolgie. They have a great little restaurant and shop full of accessories and home decor.
These are some of my favorite things right now….they are on the wish list!
I am thinking about getting THIS copper and white silverware for fall. I have wanted a gold set and haven’t pulled the trigger yet…but these might be the winner!
Of coarse I will need new fall tea towels and I love THESE and they are a great price for the set!
I have THIS mug rack that I sprayed gold and I want to add THESE new initial mugs to it for fall.
And while I decorate my house for fall and take my girls to back to school night I want to be wearing THIS! Or one of these-
THIS steamer is not only for clothes and drapes. You can steam your upholstery. The steam deodorizes and sanitizes without using any chemicals. I used it on my SOFA and loved it.
I LOVE getting flowers. Not just any flowers. This past week I had some delivered from Bouqs. It is the easiest way to send flowers. If you have someone who lives far away and you want to brighten their day. This is the spot. You can use coupon code NWG20 (First time buyers only) for 20% off your order.
Wishing you all a happy weekend. Let me know if you like this kind of post and I will keep it up!
