It’s that season! My favorite things for 2020 article is finally here, and I might be more thrilled about it than you are? 🙂 I really enjoy reflecting on the past year to identify my true favorites…and then justify spending on them by crafting a blog post. Ha!
Let’s dive in right away, shall we?
- Hmm. Is it wrong to kick off with drinks? I’m a massive fan of eggnog, but when I tasted this Evan Williams eggnog at a family Christmas gathering a couple of years back, it changed everything! It’s potent (in my view), making it a fantastic drink to savor all evening long!
- This compact heater is my new go-to! I had an old one in my classroom for years, but it finally gave out. I adore this heater so much that I brought it home for my virtual teaching sessions. It oscillates, has two heating levels, and even includes a cool fan for those sudden warm spells! Oy vey.
- I know. It resembles a computer mouse. But hear me out! This is a SILENT computer mouse! I keep my laptop in the living room, and I enjoy using it while we’re watching TV. Let’s just say, the clicking was becoming bothersome. I worried this wouldn’t function properly, but it’s exceptional!
- I love the Raskog utility cart from Ikea so much that I own three of them. The versatility is limitless, and this green one just had to be mine. It was all about the color.
- This custom puzzle is such a hit that I’m about to acquire my third one this year! It was the ideal way to keep us entertained during quarantine, and it continues to be a cherished activity at family get-togethers!
- Alright, hear me out. I’ve been a fan of Victoria Emerson bracelets for ages. But when she launched Apple watch bands????? Each. and. every. time someone spots them on me, I receive compliments. The one I own is shown above. And I might have just ordered another one.
- I began adding this powdered collagen to my coffee about a year ago, and it significantly improved my hair. I was losing hair like CRAZY, and it genuinely worried me—like panic-inducing concern. I mix one (unflavored) scoop into my morning coffee, and that drastic shedding has stopped! Now I swear by this product.
- My pale skin always craves a self-tanner in winter. My daughter uses this Isle of Paradise, and I “borrowed” it from her. It’s fantastic! I suggest spraying it on and blending it with a daily moisturizer for optimal results, but it’s incredibly natural!
- We just had a shed constructed for our backyard, and it motivated me to finally establish a cut flower garden (ten years after I initially desired one, but who’s counting?) Floret Farm’s Cut Flower Garden book has been an incredible resource for me! I have pages flagged, lines highlighted, and notes jotted down…and honestly—the pictures are stunning!
- For all my tall girls, I saved the best for last. Long leggings! I’m 5’9″, and I’d say my legs are around 5’7″ of that height. I could never wear leggings without tall boots because I couldn’t find long enough ones. These leggings are fantastic! I purchased the 34″ inseam, but they also come in up to 36 inches! They are also high-waisted and fit wonderfully. You’re welcome.
WHEW! I’m pretty sure all this typing fulfilled my blogging quota for the year. I’m wiped out. Ha! I hope you managed to discover something from my list!
