Friday Five: 3.11.22

March 10, 2022

We’re in the middle of an exhausting run with our littles over here, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have recommendations for you! Here’s what I’ve got:

1. Our Saranoni Blankets

I snagged a couple of these magical blankets (pictured above) when they were on sale in November. Since we got them, they have been used constantly. We cannot get enough of their weight, size, and softness. Although not technically weighted, they feel like a comforting hug and are big enough to snuggle up with others under. If you’re ordering, we all truly love our lush blankets in XL size.

2. These (Healthy) Chocolate PB Muffins

Sweets are my favorite even though they’re basically never any good for me. These chocolate peanut butter toddler muffins are the exception! They are so rich/delicious and also good for you. That never happens. I’ve made this recipe twice now and can vouch for their taste when they’re fresh and when they’ve been frozen and reheated. Wells and I are big fans!

3. Ben Rector

I’ve listened to little else but Ben Rector and children’s songs in 2022. His new album came out TODAY and I cannot wait to listen to the whole thing while dancing around with my babies for weeks to come. I’m already entirely obsessed with the songs “Steady Love” and “Living My Best Life” that he released early. Ben is so talented and we are so excited to see him live in May. Go listen to The Joy of Music!!!

4. This Brow Serum

Since Christmas, I’ve been using this Babe Lash brow serum religiously and I am sooo pleased to report that my eyebrows are looking so good!!! I plucked my brows to death for so many years and could not be any more excited to see my brows revived and bulking up because of this serum. This is the brand that also makes the lash serum my sister and I swear by and have used for years. Highly, highly recommend.

5. Roomie’s Pick: Facebook Marketplace

Days after I literally said the words “I think Marketplace is trash” to a friend, Ryan showed me a listing for a beautiful and hardly used Pottery Barn sectional. Within an hour of him showing me, I was curled up on his unicorn find in our home and still shaking my head in shock at our luck. So, Ryan recommends giving Marketplace a chance and I am embarrassed to have ever doubted it. 😂

Our new (used) couch!! ❤️

Wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead. 😘 Thanks for reading!
