Products I Love

By -
 Yellow rose love. 
Just looking at them makes me happy. 
They are still fresh and lovely from the party Wednesday. 
My girlfriend got them at Sams Club. 
 I'm in love with my Green Mountain Spinnery wool. 
Kid Mohair and Fine Wool, with that slippery feel to it. 
I'm on row 40 of 60ish.  
The rows keep growing, so the finish is not in sight.
I'm not knitting another thing until this is successfully finished. 
 Before I go on to other product love I have to show you 
Dink, (Humperdink) .  This kitten only wants you to hold him. 
He is as snuggly as Beatles was as a kitten.  
Westley is still more independent and the Playful hunter. 
I have the humidifier going in their room and their colds are  improving.

*****

Okay. 
My biggest greatest new product find is the 
Coobie Bra. 
I am very picky about bras. 
I LOVE these.
They are beyond comfortable. 
I don't feel like I'm wearing a bra and yet they give great support. 
Found them online. 
Have 4 bras from them now....
Cool colors to boot.  


Next:
Sinful Colors Nail Polish
Color 1383 Gilded. 
I think Judy asked about it in an earlier comment. 
Gives your natural nails a bit of gold glitter but no too much. 


May I just say that I was not eating a poor diet all these years. 
My nails were awful, broken, splitting because I washed them non -stop in the NICU. 
Now that I'm retired.....my nails are amazing. 
I actually have to cut them.

Next:
Daily Moisturing Lotion for Hands
Aveeno fragrance free.
This lovely lotion leaves no greasy after feeling. 

Next:
Free Holiday Music on our local Station 
24/7 now. 

Next: 
Crackle Logs
The ones you buy and they burn for four hours.
They are great when you are hosting a busy party. 
My neighbor Abby has one that is made of coffee grounds. 
It does NOT smell like coffee however, which I kind of wanted!

Any new products you want to share ????

Not from me, but I might have to look into your recommendations, well except the bra, support is not something I need.

I love my new Harmony wood crochet hooks from Knit Picks. I am picky about crochet hooks and these are wonderful much to my surprise.
Glad the kitties are on the mend!

Nothing new to report here, as I tend to stick with a product when I find one I like.

I love Aveeno. I usually slather it all over my body. My hands take a beating in the winter and moisturizer is a must have. I have to look up the Coobie Bras because I am ready to go bra-less if I can't find a comfortable one. I have been wearing the Genie bras but even they are becoming uncomfortable lately. Thanks for the recommendation!

My new product is my new kitchen island. It's a Winsome Mali island and I still can't believe how fast and easy it went together. Usually furniture that has to be assembled is a nightmare.

Westley and Humperdink are so cute and they have such loving foster parents that they will be healthy kitties in no time.

Yaupon tea .......I had never heard of it before. It is the only kind of tea grown in Florida ---- mild and tasty. Best of all ....local grown.

Dink is ADORABLE!

I love using L'Occitane hand cream with Shea butter, it makes my hands feel so soft! :)
Happy Sunday!

Just have to say that I've been wearing Coobie Bras for a couple years already, and for me, they are wonderful. Most comfortable!! I also use Aveeno lotion; great stuff for those of us that live in dry climates.

The kitty pictures are adorable. Would love to cuddle with Dink.

My new finds are all running gear... other than what I've already posted on my blog. Love the Williamsburg wine, but I haven't found it locally. I may have to go visit Al!

I know when you work in hospitals and clinics and have to wash hands and use hand sanitizer all the time, it really take a toll on the hands.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
