I was at Target yesterday and I was excited to see that they got some new patterns in on their Threshold Poufs. I really loved this one {the blues are richer and deeper in real life – more like navy – than the stock photo depicts} in addition to the jute/purple and the navy striped one. Not to mention, this season’s version is $10 cheaper than last season’s! Just trying to decide if/where I need one…

This past weekend, we found that Jackson Browne is in town tonight. I’m guessing 99% of you have no idea who he is and I’ll forgive you for that 😉 For those not aware, he used to write songs with the Eagles {my all-time favorite group}. JB and the Eagles are the only old music I’m obsessed with but it reminds me so much of my childhood and summers spent with my family on our boat {isn’t it funny how music can transport you at times}. One of my favorite songs of all time is Barricades of Heaven. This will be the fifth time I’ve seen him in concert – figure I have to get them in while I can before he dies 😉 He kinda seems like one strange dude in real life but he puts on the best concerts – so conversational and personable {my husband has grown to love him too}. This concert is in a little theater downtown and is just JB and some acoustic guitars on stage and we couldn’t be more excited. I’ll be in Las Vegas for our anniversary later this month, so we plan to live it up tonight with a steak dinner at 801 Chophouse – courtesy of a Groupon – before the concert. So excited! If you’re looking for a new old-school artist, check him out {here’s the link to his website – you can hear some songs there or on YouTube}. Barricades of Heaven, I’m Alive and Just Say Yeah are just a few of my favorites of his.

Best watch of all time? This one. I now own it in both gold and silver thanks to my parents giving me the second one at Christmas. It is rare that a week goes by that someone doesn’t compliment me on these watches. They aren’t super cheap by any means {although they’ve come down in price by nearly $100 since they were released} but I also think they look MUCH more expensive than they really are. I’ve even had multiple people ask me if I’m wearing a Rolex. Personally, I think this is much cooler 😉

Do you have a Clarisonic? If not, you are missing out. I’ve been meaning to do a review of it for some time but wanted to wait it out until I really got some use out of it. I’ve also heard good things about the Mia, which is the smaller side. These are the brushes I use, due to my oil skin and big pores – but I love the fact that you can customize the brush heads based on your skin type. My skin has never felt softer nor has it had a clearer complexion. I use it with my favorite face wash {Philosophy’s Purity}. Highly recommended!

We have been loving these mini packs of Guacamole from Wholly Guacamole lately. We bought a case at Costco a few weeks back and have been using it on/with everything. I love that they are already pre-portioned in 100 calorie packs {’cause you know how easy it is to gorge yourself on this stuff} and it stays fresh because you only use a pack at a time. In addition to the usual tortilla strips, I’ve been eating it with baby carrots, on burgers and on turkey roll-ups. So good and so easy!

Lastly, how is it already the 4th of July this week? I’m starting to feel a little sad that summer is almost at the half point! Don’t forget to enter my contest that is still open but end this week – the TIKI Brand Outdoor Summer Pack!!
If you would like to follow along on more of my home decor, DIY and random posts, I’d love to have you follow me on any of the following:

I’ve been wanting to get a Clarisonic for awhile now. So happy to hear your positive review. Do you use everyday of a couple of times per week?
Sarah S says
I actually only use it when I’m in the shower. So I would say about 4-5 times a week? I don’t use it at night. I’m pretty lazy at night, so then I typically use those face wipes that several brands make (I use the generic Kirkland brand from Costco).
