May Favorites

June is here in a few days! Can you believe it?! I'm shocked at how quickly this month has flown by, but it has and I have a few favorites to share.


This spiral-bound notebook is my first favorite.  I bought this notebook at Barnes and Noble for my mum.  She lost her last notebook and had been lamenting the loss, so I bought her a new one.  The notebook is to mark the 25th anniversary of Dr. Seuss's "Oh! The Places You'll Go!" and I had already bought Mum the bookmark, so I decided to buy her the notebook.  And, I admit, my plan is go back and purchase one for me.


I love this notebook because of the lines inside (without lines I write at this weird upward angle) and the colorful, glittery balloons.  I also love the message, as Mum has done a lot more traveling and will be doing a lot more traveling since she retired. And it isn't badly priced at $9.99.


This special addition magazine by the British publisher Mollie Makes.  Last year they did a special edition magazine on blogging, so this year they tackled Social Media.  I do a little social media, but probably not as much as most.  This publication gives not only valuable tips but a lot more depth to understanding various social media platforms.  My only complaint? The price:  $17.99.  A bit much for magazine.


Mason jar mugs are all the rage right now.  And, I admit, I've been sucked into the hype.  What I love about these mugs is there is no logo or other junk on them.  And the price cannot be beat.  I paid $1.00 for each mug at the Dollar Tree.  We're using these for root beer floats (a summer tradition for the Fam).


Those who know me know that I am a sucker for caramels.  I LOVE them.  They are my favorite sweet of all sweets, and I can never have enough.  And these caramels have risen to my favorite.



Werther's Original Soft Caramels are not as easy to find as you would think.But they are well worth the purchase.  The caramels are so soft and buttery they will literally melt in your mouth.  And don't try biting into one and eating it in small bites.  It will disintegrate in your hand.  Just pop the entire piece in your mouth and prepare yourself for a caramel awakening.  Werther's Original... If you are, by chance, reading this blog post - don't be shy about sending me a case of these babies.  They will not go to waste.


Trivia Crack... My new addiction.  I love that it allows me to use all the worthless information packed away in my brain.  It kills time more effectively than solitaire, and some of the questions are very interesting as well.  My only real complaint is that I downloaded the free version which is littered with ads.  Sure, I can always cough up the $2.99 for the ad-free version, but I admit I'm cheap and cannot bring myself to spend the money on something designed to kill time while I am waiting for an oil change or a doctor's appointment.


And my final favorite is provolone flavored Cheez-Its.  I love these babies.  I am a snacker, and these are amazing things to snack on.  I'm getting hungry just thinking about them.

What about you? What are your favorites from May?  Share in the comments!
