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 so tired of the news that I have been binging on old TV shows. 3 of my favorites are JAG, Greys Anatomy and Las vegas. Started watching the original episodes and continuing thru the seasons and episodes.
I'm loving Burt's Bees lip balm. It works without irritating my skin.
burt's bees firming moisturizer.
88 Acres Chocolate Sunflower Butter...so good.
L'Oreal mircle water
I'm loving Australian Gold botanical SPF 50 tinted face sunscreen - it's a great and affordable mineral face sunscreen that I can find in drugstores locally, and doesn't dry out my dry-prone skin (like some mineral sunscreens can).
I'm loving my new Kitchen Aid mixer.
I have not tried any new products but really like the idea of lightweight vacumns. I also really like vacumns that can fit around behind toilets in those tight spaces that are hard to clean.
I tried the Godiva Molten Lava Cake mix, and we LOVED the little cakes! I also bought the Godiva Raspberry Torte mix, and I'm excited to try that one out.
Olay Regenerist serum
My opi nail polish, and Olay reginerist face cream
Vitamin C Serum for my face!
I love the lancome monsieur big mascara. I keep going back to it
With all the hand sanitizer we have been needing and using lately, it's been completely drying my hands. I live on Hand Food Non-Greasy Hydrating Hand Cream. It is my favorite by far. I received a sample of it and now it's my go-to!
I love Miracle of Aloe foot lotion. It keeps my feet super soft.
