Circle 'Round

Here's a few links of articles, videos, websites, stories, purchases, etc. that I've enjoyed this week.

Undeveloped World War II Film Discovered
Because I have a deep love of the mystery in old film and WWII history...

Boston Travel
Because Karl and I will be traveling to Boston for the Fourth of July!!  All travel recommendations are welcome.

Amuse Bouche Lipstick Obsession
Because of all the lipsticks in the world, these are my obsession.  And they're all-natural.

Milk Frother
Because we have no Sheetz.  And we want mint steamers.

Barolo Braised Short Ribs
For when I have tons of time and am feeling inspired...

January Favorites

I never think the schedule can get any busier.  Then I get the professor from...well...let's just say, I've been busier than usual.  Grad school hasn't been terrible because of so many people cheering me on and giving me the help I need.  There's nothing that makes me miss the small, intimate English class like an online grad class.  Winter has just gotten colder, but January, for the most part, switched back and forth between the scary warm and bitter cold.  My skin went a little haywire, but of course, there were a couple things pushing me through winter.

One Line A Day Journal | This five year journal might be fun to look back on.  I journal quite regularly, but this allows me to note the day quickly.

Jergens Wet Skin Moisturizer | The weather is killing me.  Normally, I shed skin (disgusting) in the winter.  My legs are itchy, typically.  But I can slather this on IN THE SHOWER. It's been a lifesaver.

Kate Spade Cedar Street Jensen | The color is "mulled wine."  Need I say more?

L'Occintane Hand Cream | Honestly, I've never been a fan of the "rose" smell.  This is different  And the cream feels so luxurious.  I put it on right before bed, and I've really come to love it in my nightly routine.

Kendra Scott Necklace | I've had this for quite some time.  But in the winter, when I'm wearing a lot of blue and gold (shout out to my J. Crew vest), this necklace is the perfect accessory.
