one of my favorite things are houseplants in terra cotta pots

This a collection of things I'm loving right now. I've included recipes that are perfect for this season and some of my favorite things. Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and scroll through all the stuff I've enjoyed this week.

I can't believe we are a week into 2022! I have lots of organization supplies for you this week. I love to organize my pantry, cupboards and closet during the winter months when it's raining and I don't really want to be outside.

This week I also have lots of lovely kitchen and dining from Better Homes and Garden. I already own a few of these and as I was looking put a couple more on my list to purchase. Their stuff is inexpensive, but in my experience holds up well.

Stuff I Love

What I'm Watching - I finished season two of Emily in Paris on Netflix this week. I love all of the shots of Paris and the crazy fashion.

What I'm Listening To - It's on my list this week to listen to the Goop Podcast episode with Stanley Tucci. I'm a big fan of Stanley Tucci and can't wait to listen to this conversation.

What I'm Reading - I'm 60% through Love at First Spite by Anna E. Collins. It's a likable romance novel with fun story. I like the main characters and it's set in Washington.

What I'm Loving - For cozy loungewear I really like the men's henley t-shirts at Target. They are warm and I can push the sleeves up. I pair them with joggers and my sneakers.

My Favorite Things From Around The Web

These red and white satin pajamas remind me a little of the Emily in Paris wardrobe. They look really comfy to lounge around in on a Sunday!

Speaking of comfy clothes for winter I love a button front cardigan to wear over pajamas, jeans or a dress. They are so versatile and go from winter to spring well.

Target has their cloth lunch totes back in stock this season. They sold out before I could get one last year! It would be perfect to pack a picnic lunch to take with.

Target is already getting some of their spring lines in. I love this gingham mug, these gingham kitchen scrubbers, the basketweave striped kitchen towels and this big stoneware scalloped bowl.

I was looking back at some of the most popular kitchen items in 2021 and these are my must haves: OXO Small Cookie Scoop, Lodge Cast Iron Skillet, Instant Vortex Air Fryer and Cuisinart Stainless Steel Measuring Cups

I need some baskets for my pantry for snacks and other smaller items. I like these braided rectangle baskets from Target.

I like to save our coffee grounds to put in the garden to add some acidity to the soil. I really like this new coffee grounds bowl with a cork lid!
