TOMS Ballet Flats
I have a love/hate relationship with TOMS (love the wedges, hate the elfin-looking original flats). Today my love quotient has been upped with the introduction of their Ballet Flats. These come in a variety of textiles and colors and are definitely worth checking out, especially with TOMS commitment to giving.
Love Beets
Or, really, for me they should be called Lazy Beets since they contain all the deliciousness of fresh-roasted beets without the hassle of peeling and cooking them. The tasty flavors are a bonus!
Your local WFM should carry Love Beets by the pre-cut fruit. Perfect to throw on salads, sandwiches, or toss with crumbled goat cheese! Yum!
PW's Hot Chocolate
I'm battling a serious post-holidays cold here, and nothing sounds better to me right now than the Pioneer Woman's Hot Chocolate.
If only I had all the ingredients here at home.....

Things We Love: December
Oy, the holidays never cease to amaze me with the chaos they bring on.
 |
| Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream. Combating winter dryness everywhere. Plus, the fun samples you get when ordering online are a bonus! |
 |
| Holiday Cards. The mailbox is such a fun place, lately. Although, I have sent out 141 cards and received only 21? Come on, people! Thank you, USPS for finally issuing a holiday stamp that is both modern and secular (good-bye Holiday Knits!). |
 |
| Pan Am. Loving this "new" show. Almost as good as American Dreams (RIP). |
 |
| Gearhart's Chocolates. An assorted box arrived this week - a gift from a client (way to go supporting local C'ville businesses!), I have had to limit myself to one piece per night. Personal favs include: Earl Grey and Brown Butter Caramel. |
