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 am loving Yasso yogurt pops right now
I am loving Tarte Maneater Mascara and Dolce & Gabana One Fragrance.
I've been using Microneedle eye masks from Gin Amber Beauty overnight and loving it!
I haven't tried anything new but that lava cake kit looks divine.
Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara!
This product is regional ( I found it in Winn Dixie), but my family and I are loving SE Grocers Prestige Small Batch Fruit Syrup, particularly the South Georgia Blueberry variety. It contains just 3 ingredients: blueberries, cane sugar, and lemon juice and is a delightful addition to pancakes, waffles, chia seed pudding, and ice cream, to name a few. Since we've been eating more often at home, it's been an easy way to elevate an ordinary meal. I intend to pick up the strawberry version on my next trip.
I'm loving my cordless, bagless vac!
I'm really loving Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser! It is always gentle on my skin, nourishing and leaves it feeling fully cleansed!
Love my Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray
soap and glory hand food
Suave coconut hydrating lotion
I love the Trader Joe's Cheddar Garlic Sliced Focaccia Bread
Loving Dior BlackOut mascara. It has a great brush and really lengthens my lashes.
All of these above look awesome. I just tried some vegan gummies from nuts.com they were fantastic. The exotic flavor is awesome. Full of flavor and chewy.
I've fallen in love with Beyond Burgers (and I'm not even a vegetarian, let alone a vegan), Diet Dr. Pepper & Cream Soda, and Trader Joe's Mandarin Orange Chicken Bowls. Also, Fresh soy face cleanser, the best cleanser ever for those of us with dry skin.
