Julep
I checked my tracking link this morning and I knew that my July Julep Maven box was arriving today! Happy Early Birthday to me! It was only shipped 2 days ago. How do they get it here that fast? It can’t go by air because it’s nail polish. Amazing. Thanks, Julep! The box was waiting […]

Bespoke Post
So, I totally forgot to skip Bespoke Post, which we don’t get all the time, and we ended up with a June Bespoke Post box! That’s ok, because it’s a giant block of salt, and I am indeed nuts about salt. I carry a salt shaker with me. Yes, seriously. But before I get to […]
Tweaking Tuesday aka How to read my blog

Wittlebee
We got our June Wittlebee Kids Clothing subscription box. This one was for my 4 year old daughter. I believe that the showroom was open when I was sick and I didn’t pick anything for this box. Or something like that. So it’s all Wittlebee picks this month. Whoops! If you want to sign up for […]

Birchbox
June Birchbox is here! The theme for June is Wanderlust. Where are we going? I am not sure! If I sound a little unenthused about this box, it’s because I’m not really psyched about it. BUT I still get a ton of value because of the Birchbox rewards system and coupons. I’m about to buy […]
