Trick-or-Treat
Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF this year with the FEED Trick-or-Treat Bag
For every bag purchased a $3.50 donation is made to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to help support UNICEF's nutrition programs. So, each FEED Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF bag purchased will generate funding to help UNICEF provide one child in the developing world with an entire year's worth of micronutrient powder.
I purchased mine here for just $12.95!

Have You Heard?
It always happens about this time every year bands and artists start announcing who is going to have a Christmas album. I always get at least one new album for my collection every year and have already discovered the latest addition.
She & Him will be releasing their very first Christmas album A Very She & Him Christmas come October 24th with part of proceeds going to 826 National, a nonprofit that "provides under-resourced students with opportunities to explore their creativity and improve their writing skills".
So, get into the spirit of the season with some great holiday tunes while helping others ... which is what the holidays are about after all.

'Tis The Season
I am a big fan of Halloween and love to decorate for the season. So, when I discovered this adorable dispenser filled with Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin antibacterial foaming soap, for 50% OFF (just $5.00) it was a no-brainer. I LOVE that I can keep the dispenser and use it year after year. You can snatch one up for the holidays here or just head over to your local Bath and Body Works.

JAMBAliciousness
On a recent trip to my local Walmart, I found myself on the ice cream aisle scoping out the options. I'm so happy about the discovery that resulted ...
Jamba Sorbet and Jamba Sorbet & Yogurt Bars
I purchased the "Peach Blackberry Smash Fruit Sorbet" featured above and WOWZA are they jambalicious!!
So yummy with all natural ingredients, NO fat and only 70 calories. They are a great alternative to the usual frozen stuff and all the fruity flavors sound perfect for summer. I cannot wait to try them all!

Speaking of Candles
I REALLY, REALLY want one of these Aspen Bay Capri Blue Candles in Volcano.
It reminds me of my days working at Anthropologie (my coolest retail job ever) when we always had one of these burning and infusing the store with that amazing scent.

Sniff, Sniff
If you have not visited a Bath & Body Works lately and had the chance to sniff the delicious new scents then you must do so immediately. I was left craving the following two scents ...

Perspective
This little video really makes you think outside yourself, which is always good, and reminds me to continually check my perspective on things ... they may not really be as bad as I let myself think.

I dream of one day owning an old or old-inspired (made of reclaimed wood) farm table. So, when I find lovely vintage linens like this table cloth then they are purchased to don the aforementioned table.
I'm so grateful to have the occasional good luck with vintage fabrics like this at a nearby charity shop.

I noticed this glass pitcher on the shelf at the Salvation Army and just couldn't stop thinking about it as I walked around the shop.
I decided to buy it because it reminded me of a bee hive and would be the perfect vessel for sweet tea or lemonade on a hot summer day.

Funny Guy = Banjo Pro
Steve Martin is a hilarious fellow (if you need proof then rent The Jerk) but some people don't know he is also pretty darn good with a banjo too. You can view/hear some of his skills in this video ...
I recently discovered his album The Crow: New Songs for the Five String Banjo and had to order it immediately. It really is a must buy if you love the banjo and bluegrass. He even has a new album coming out next month, learn more about it here

North and South
I recently learned about this little tv mini-series based on the Elizabeth Gaskell novel. If you are a huge fan of such period pieces as Pride & Prejudice, Jane Eyre etc. then it looks like a must see.
I immediately added it to my NETFLIX que and hope to have it later this week!!

I'm An Aesthetics Person
So, every time this music video appears on VH1 I find myself drawn to watch the entire thing. I just love the look and feel. I really like the house and the decor and the wardrobe (his and hers) and the snow and even how you can see his breath in the cold ... plus the song is pretty good.
