In the last few months, we've tasted new snacks, sampled different beauty brands and binged on many TV shows. Some we loved, some we thought were ok, and some we'd never want to experience again.

Here are some items we've been loving lately...
Turns out, not all mascaras are the same. The wand on this Fenty Beauty mascara is shaped so that it has a fat side and a smaller, flat side all in one. You can use the bigger side to coat the lashes for volume and lift them up. Then, the flatter side helps to define them and curl them. We've been happy with the results every single time!
This is pure ooey gooey chocolate goodness. Just add melted butter and egg to the mix and you have a restaurant-quality dessert right at home. It even comes with individual foil cups so you can cook 2, 4 or 6 servings at a time. Simply delicious.
If you love rom-coms and you're looking for a show to binge, Four Weddings and a Funeral on Hulu should be next on your list. It's a ten-episode remake of the classic '90s movie starring Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell about a group of friends and their relationship trials. Plus, Game of Thrones fans will enjoy seeing Missandei in a totally different role.
Vacuums may not seem glamorous, but when you have a good, light one that cleans the house easily, it's surprisingly exciting. This Shark works well for small spills, pet hair, car, or whole-house cleans, We can never go back to using a vacuum with a cord or bag again.
There are so many things to love about this nail polish. It goes on smoothly, comes in a large variety of beautiful colors, and lasts for a long time without chipping. Plus, it's free of the seven known harmful ingredients that can be found in other products. It's the perfect substitute for expensive salon visits!
This game is fun for older kids, teens and adults. It's an at-home laser tag that you can play both inside and out. The initial package comes with two blasters but you can buy additional pieces so several kids can play together. These lasers work well from far apart, so it's a perfect purchase for when you are social distancing!

I love my new Ninja Coffee maker I just bought off of ebay. I also love my Blentec I bought off ebay. I also bought a Ninja Foodi Grill. I use all these items at least once a day. Also I love my Crockpot Express, like an Insta Pot.
My Roku Express streaming device. During these times to stay indoors, it has helped keep me entertained and informed. It is easy to set up and use.
Being more at home these days, I have discovered the lost art of sewing, and especially the lovely fabrics at Girl Charlee online! They are soft, pretty, easy-to-sew knits, so you can make garments for just about everybody - and of course yourself!
I love my Clinique Moisture Surge hydrator, it is a great moisturizer in Texas heat and humidity. I also love Real Chemistry 3 Minute Peel, it takes away dead skin and leaves your skin fresh and smooth.
I'm loving the Kiehl's Iris Extract Activating Treatment Essence. It's making my skin look so luminous!
Elf eye cream and Chai latte kcups.
Hersey Guacamole Salsa!
