Cyber Monday is upon us. While I do advocate shopping local whenever possible, I am also a shameless participant of online shopping. And because this blog is a participant in the Amazon Associates program and gets a tiny bit of revenue when you order through my links, I'm going to share some gift suggestions and some of my favorite things with you!
First, I offer four terrific book suggestions. Yes, one of them is mine, but hey, it's a pretty good book! The other three I have read and are among my absolute favorites:
Next, curl up under one of these great blankets while you read and stay warm this holiday:
Stay warm with a new coffee maker:
I have all but eliminated my use of plastic bottles this year; I've been using one of these refillable water bottles every day. As a bonus I have drastically reduced my soda intake.
Some of my funky wardrobe favorites: I got this green ruffled jacket this week and I love it so ridiculously much:
The animals are never overlooked around here; we recently bought these self-warming thermal pads for the outside cats and they love them.
I know a lot of people who won't have an Echo in their house, but honestly we love ours. I have one of the older Echos, but we talk to Alexa all the time. She plays music for us, tells us jokes, gives me news updates, weather updates, and is generally all around useful. And the Ring doorbell? Everyone needs one of those these days:
Some of my "must have" products: the L'occitane skin care line has been on my shelf for over a year now and I can't imagine being without it. I love it. The Redkin products for my hair have quickly become favorites as well. When you have fine, limp hair like mine, it needs all the help it can get!
The video gamer in our house is hot on the Nintendo Switch these days:
I have some favorite non-Amazon shopping sites too. For unique jewelry items checkout
Restrung Jewelry out of New Orleans where a portion of the profits are donated to charities like The New Orleans Musician's Assistance Foundation, among others.
I also really like the beautiful work of
Bayou Glass Arts Jewelry. I've purchased some cool, unique pieces from Contina.
For stunning photographic prints and calendars, consider
Nikki Sumrow Photography out of Texas. The Longhorn Calendar is one of my favorites and I have the sunflower prints as well. (Full disclosure: she is my very talented daughter!)
Have a happy shopping season and please share in the comments any great deals you find out there or suggestions for this post! I'll keep updating it!
