Happy Friday before Christmas! I've been really soaking up any bit of free time I've had lately and letting myself relax or prepare for the holidays. It's hard to believe that Christmas is already next week but I surely am ready for it! We have a little over a week off from school for winter break and then my district will be all remote the few weeks following the break. It'll be an interesting start to the new year but I know it's the safest option!
It's been awhile since I've posted a Friday Favorites so I figured I'd hop on and share a couple things I've been loving lately!
B&BW Kitchen Lemon Hand Cream
I picked this up at the Body Care Sale last weekend at Bath & Body Works and I am so glad it made it into my bag of goodness. The lemon scent is phenomenal and while the consistency is a little thicker than I normally prefer for a hand cream, it soaks in quickly and keeps my hands super moisturized. I keep it on my desk in work and use it after every time I wash my hands.
2-Ingredient Bagels
Yesterday was a snow day for me so I took advantage of the quiet morning and made myself some homemade bagels using 2 ingredient dough. If you've never heard of 2 ingredient dough then listen up because it's a true game changer. To make the dough, you use a cup of self-rising flour and a cup of plain Greek yogurt. Once mixed, you can use it for whatever you want! I typically make pizza with it (which I did Wednesday night during my snowed-in night) but it works for bagels, too. After kneading out the dough, divide it into 4 chunks that you then roll out and shape into bagel shapes. Top with an egg wash before popping them into your air fryer at 350* for 10 minutes. You can also add a topping with the egg wash, like Everything but the Bagel Seasoning or cinnamon! I linked the recipe I follow above so you can get all the details.
evermore
I couldn't forget to talk about my new favorite Taylor Swift album! Taylor Swift blessed us all with her second album in the past FIVE MONTHS last week and I am just still amazed by that fact. I downloaded it the second I woke up last Friday morning and had it on repeat all day. After my first listen, I liked it but wasn't in love just yet. After a few days, I can now say it may be my new favorite! I'd have to say my favorite songs off the album are champagne problems and no body, no crime but that could change at any moment haha.
Question of the Day: What is something you're loving this week?
That hand cream just sounds like it smells good! Weird little "hack" but if I need lotion to soak in really fast, I just put it on the back of my hands then rub those together until it's mostly rubbed in then I rub it on my palms.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I'm loving this week is my steam mop. Does that make me a really cool 25 year old lol! But it's so nice and easy and even though it was more of an investment upfront than a Swiffer, I like that I can wash the pads so it's more eco friendly.
That's a really good idea! That would help a lot when I'm on my computer all day and don't want my keyboard getting greasy!
DeleteI never heard of a steam mop but now I feel like I need one haha. I like that it has the pads that you can wash. I actually have a mop on my house shopping list because we just have some cheapy one that I complain about every time I use it. Gotta love a good house item!
I forget where I saw it or read it but it helps so much during the workday.
DeleteIt's so good! I'll text you the link to the one I bought now
