So…what exactly is the Monday Poll?
Great question! Despite its name, it’s not a real poll, like one with clickable buttons. It’s merely a collection of somewhat random queries that I’ve been sharing on this blog every Monday morning for what feels like forever (since 2007).
1. What beauty gifts for the holidays have you purchased?
I snagged a beautiful Jo Malone scent duo, a few Laneige skincare kits, my go-to body scrub, and a tea tree oil foot spray, among other items!
2. Did you get any of those beauty gifts for yourself?
LOL, unexpectedly no! However, I did grab an azelaic acid serum for myself while I was at Ulta.
3. What’s on the breakfast menu today?
Trader Joe’s Protein Pancakes. Have you tasted them? They’re fantastic!
4. Have you done any holiday baking yet?
Not yet, but I plan to bake either cookies or brownies next weekend. At least, that’s what I hope. If I end up feeling completely worn out, I’ll give myself the option to skip that annual tradition this year.
5. What’s your top holiday song?
It’s a tough choice between Mariah’s “All I Want for Christmas” (I know, so typical) and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” from “Meet Me in St. Louis.”
