Prime Purchases in July

 Somehow I thought I hadn't bought anything from Amazon in July (other than our Subscribe and Save items) but I was wrong. We did buy a lot of Jet ski, car, and other vehicle parts... but I didn't really think that would interest my readers at all. Luckily, once I went back through my purchased items I did find that I had bought quite a few things for the house.  



For the kitchen:

My favorite Tupperware bowl has a crack in the lid and I was so overjoyed to find the exact same sized one on Amazon! 



My girlfriend had this foaming hand wash at her beach house rental this summer and I just loved the scent so much.



We use a lot of baking soda; especially in the summer since I use it for cleaning our towels and keeping them smelling fresh. I finally decided to just order a huge bag of it. 


For the basement:

We bought a second robot vacuum for the basement floor. 



We bought a mini fridge too.


For Ian's new crafting area (we had to move him out of the basement and into our utility closet).  

A tablecloth to keep the table from being covered in modeling paint.



A mat to protect the floor.



A wastebasket.

    Oo the soap sounds great! I love snagging baking soda at Costco for laundry.

      It's amazing what a little baking soda will do for the laundry.

    I thought Tupperware was for life. If there is anything broken, or something like that, you get a new one for free.

      Yes... but you have to know a representative and go through them to have any pieces replaced. My mom tried to replace one of her lids a few years ago and it was really quite difficult. I have had that bowl for well over 20 years so I felt like I had definitely gotten my money's worth on it and didn't mind buying a new one.

    I love Mrs. Meyer's products. My favorite scent so far is basil.

      I had never seen that scent before either and don't think I realized they made foaming hand soap.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Share 4 Somethings in April 2025

Image
Since the last Saturday of the month is tomorrow it's just about time for Share 4 Somethings with Jenn. As always we're sharing some things we loved, some things we learned, some things that went well, and some things we let go of .  Some things I've loved: We had my brother and his family over for dinner just for fun and to talk over some plans. It was so great to see everyone and we had such a delicious meal too (if I do say so myself; I went all out with homemade marinara, keto meatballs, fresh zoodles, 2 loaves of a whole wheat bread I experimented with, keto Italian dressing, brownies, etc).  The only 2 photos I thought to take! We had pasta and zoodles so I took a bit of both with my salad I also loved a couple of the hikes Evan and I tackled this month.  Some things I've learned: I've been learning a lot about Glacier National park in order to prep for a trip we're planning.  Some things that went well: We got a lot of Alec's stuff moved home though...

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Monthly Musings in April

Image
 It's the last Friday of the month and time for monthly musings with Patty and Holly. This month we have a wide range of topics we're covering.  1. We don't really celebrate Easter or any other holiday in spring anymore. We used to celebrate Easter when the boys were younger and actually at home. Alec stayed at college this year and Ian was off starting a new landscaping job so it felt just like any other day; which was weird.  I miss decorating eggs!   my brother in law used to host an outdoor egg hunt for our 5 kids that was so much fun sometimes the boys had another indoor egg hunt at my mom's or at our house They always had Easter baskets up until a few years ago too. 2. I do not plant a garden as I don't seem to be very good at growing things. I will try to grow a pot of basil again this year but that's about it.  3. I don't do much to decorate for spring I'll put a wreath on the door and put out a new welcome mat. It's also the time of year I...

Talking About It Tuesdays # 68

Image
Happy Tuesday and welcome back to another Talking About it Tuesday party! I arrived home last night from a quick trip to Kentucky where I met up with some blogging buddies. Sometimes I still think it doesn't feel real that I've made actual friends through blogging. I got to meet a few more ladies this time around and experience a few new things too. It was a great way to recharge my batteries and I'm hitting the ground running today as we have another busy week in store.  I was pretty proud of myself that I managed to visit everyone's posts last week before I left and found so many great ideas. With Mother's day fast approaching in the US and graduation season nearly here I'm already on the hunt for gift ideas, are you? The link with the most views from last week's party: Five Day Post Op by My Seventies Split    A few that caught my eye: How to Make a Graduation Money Lei 2 Easy Ways by Press Print Party Beyond Vinyl/ Discovering the Charm of Cup Wraps for ...
