Last week I made it to the post office to pick up a package that had been waiting for me. I was really excited about the items in the box, but just hadn’t been able to make it over, due to working in the very opposite direction. It’s also tricky to get mail picked up as our post offices lock up entirely when they closed. No picking up your mail on Sunday or in the evening!

Anyway, I did get it picked up and my FAVORITE lip balms are back in my pocket and bag and truck and sewing table drawers. Did I mention these lip-balms are my favorite?? I love them so much, and talk about them a lot, so I became an affiliate with MadeOn.

MadeOn Skin Care has many good products that my family has used over the years. But as time has passed and the kids grew up and found their own favorite skin care products, I spent the last couple of years using up all the lip balms. It is pretty crazy how many of these I had stashed, until I didn’t anymore. But now I’m back in stock and so glad.

Another item to arrive this week are one of my favorites to put in stockings. Skout Snack Bars and Skout Cookies. And I don’t just put them in the grandkids stockings. They go into MY KIDS stockings 🙂 I love that they are yummy and have good ingredients AND they are vegan! (I have a daughter and son in law who are vegan and it is so fun when I find something like this!)

I’m not an affiliate with Skout but maybe someday. I do love them!!

One last favorite thing I want to share with you. For several months I’ve been squeezing a lemon into my water bottle every day. The lemon flavor keeps me drinking water (I actually don’t like water) and now that we are in the winter months, I am noticing that I feel healthier, lighter. The flavored water doesn’t just hydrate, it gives a good dose of Vitamin C too!!! If you try this out, let me know!

So there are my current favorite things. Do you have a couple favorites, especially that you put into stockings? Please share in the comments. We all can use some fresh ideas!
