Weekend and Prime ~ 12/5/23

 Happy Monday morning to you!  I hope these next 4 weeks are ones you can soak in all the holiday things, while also not staying in a busy mode.  I also hope that where things are hard in life, you can look to Jesus as we remember He came into this weary world to give us hope.  May Christmas be a kind reminder of that to us all. 

I am sharing a little about my weekend and a few Prime items today.

Last week, my daughter went to run errands with me after I finished working at home.  We went to Trader Joe's, because I had not been there yet this season.  As we walked in, I said, "Lord, please let there be Jingle Jangle."  This is what we saw right inside the door!  Let me vouch for our family and say, we love this stuff.  We finished this faster than I would like to admit.  I have one more saved for the week of Christmas & am trying to keep it hidden from us all!

This same day, I had a flat tire and ended up getting 4 new tires.  Thankfully, we were safe and was able to go run errands in my daughter's car when mine was unavailable.  After dropping off my car, I got a hot chocolate from Biggby Coffee, which is a chain coffee shop, but new to our area.  It is very good and also has cute holiday cups.

I also got my Spotify Wrapped notification for this year.  This is where they show you who/what you listen to the most in a year.   I clearly have needed some inspiring music this year.  And, I love that Huey Lewis always makes his way into my top artists!

Friday night, we went to the Christmas parade.  I saw one of our favorite bloggers, Jennifer, there.  I love that we are not only blog, but real life friends too!

After the parade, we drove through the town square.  Jennifer has mentioned it being a little Hallmark town, and she is right!  

Saturday, I did some random cleaning & organizing at home and a grocery run to Aldi.  I hadn't been there in a few months, so it was fun and I did a Kroger run on Sunday after church.  Overall, it was a good, low key weekend.  

Now for a few Amazon Prime items, linking up with Tanya.  I don't have many things to blog this month because a lot of my purchases are Christmas gifts.  

During Black Friday, I did buy my favorite electric rechargeable lighter.  This week, I have a gift exchange with the ladies from my church.  We are suppose to bring a $15 favorite gift.  I am bringing this lighter, along with a Christmas candle I bought at TJ Maxx.  

I can't believe 2 months in a row I have featured a dog toy on Prime Purchases!  However, there is a dog in our house now and there are very few toys he hasn't chewed his way through.  This dog chew toy has proved to withstand his puppy chewing phase.  On a side note, last month's toy bone is holding up well too.  

Many more Amazon items coming next month to share!

Have a great start to your week!
