Five Simple Things (March 29)

Hello.

Here are five things this week.

1. This find.

We participated in Natural Grocers/Vitamin Cottage Golden Egg Hunt this week. It was their community activity for spring. We were afraid we weren't going to find one, but we went around the corner and Skylar immediately spotted it. Inside was a store gift card for $25. Score!

2. These boxes.

This week two Kiwi Eco Boxes came, and our Mighty Nest Mighty Fix. I am not sure why both boxes came, but I'm not complaining. My favorite thing in the first box is the eye mask. I love these things and with having sensitive skin, so this one was perfect. I've already been using it each night this week. The soap and soap-saver bag in the Mighty Nest box was a hit again this month. I love the smell of these soap from Oars and Alps smells amazing. The light scent of juniper berries is nice and the soap saver bag helps use up every little bit, so it doesn't go down the drain. My favorite thing in the second Kiwi Eco Box is the bath bomb from Renew Bath and Body. It smells amazing!

3. This view.

Selmet has changed so much over the years. It went from a smaller company and everyone knew each other, and one building in the shape of a U, to more buildings, a larger parking lot, and a lot more people. I used to drive there on Jeff's lunch break and spend that time with him, while people walked by that I knew and said hello. Now, I don't like going out there unless I have to. I don't know the people anymore, and the ones I do know are all scattered around that I don't see them anymore. I miss when the company was smaller and everyone knew each other. Jeff doesn't even know half the people that work there now and the company was purchased a few different times now. *sigh* Jeff is hoping to finish up his 25 years there and say goodbye in the next two years. It's a little bitter sweet, to say the least.

4. This "bomb."

I had to circle back around for this bath bomb. The smell is amazing and Renew Bath and Body is a great brand, because they wrap their products in plastic-free material. The bath bomb itself comes in a dissolvable wrap when dropped in water. I definitely will be purchasing more of these bath bombs. I may even consider carrying them in my shop in the future.

5. This haircut.

Skylar had a haircut this week and he was relieved. I love his longer hair and when he goes to get a haircut every two to three months I get nervous that he is going to chop it all off. I'm glad this time he kept it. I think it fits his face perfectly.

One last thing:

I am loving these Petal Sparking drinks-Elderberry White Tea is my favorite. I don't drink alcohol, so these are great for when you want that kick, but don't want to drink. The company is women owned, so that alone is a plus for me. You can get a 12 pack of them here.
