Current Favorites: August 2021

I haven't done one of these in a while, so I thought I would share what my current favorites are.

I have found a few new (to me) things that I have come to love, and thought I would share them here.

In no particular order, here is what I am currently loving:

  • Talking to Jesus song by Elevation Worship & Maverick City
    I recently found out about this song from a friend, and have loved listening to it ever since. It is about talking to Jesus as a friend, and how He is always there for you, no matter what.

  • Microsoft Surface Go tablet
    For a while, I was debating between getting a laptop and a tablet, and after reading reviews, I went with getting a Microsoft Surface Go tablet. I wanted something that was easy to carry around, and didn't take up too much space. It is fast, has all that I want, and is very easy to use.

  • Weighted blankets
    I was recently having a hard time, and I couldn't sleep. I used my weighted blanket one night to try and help me calm down, and it made a huge difference for me. I was completely calm that night, and have been since then. Weighted blankets really do help!

  • Sweet Tarts Mini Chewy candy
    One of my brothers recently bought these, and I was able to try it. They taste like the original Sweet Tarts, the only difference is that this is in a ball form. I love Sweet Tarts, so I knew I would like these.

  • Love in Faith clothing (loveinfaith.life)
    Love in Faith has some amazing clothing, tumblers, and other items that have Bible verses and faith quotes on them. I recently heard about this company from one of my favorite YouTubers, and decided to check them out. I have a few t-shirts already, and I absolutely love them.

  • Unlocking Us with Brene Brown (podcast)
    In this podcast, Brene hosts guests, and they talk about everything from race, literature, family, health, and much more.

  • Good Life Project (podcast)
    This podcast focuses on mental health, and how to have as good a life as possible.

  • Gardenscapes and Homescapes game
    These games are apps, which I am playing on my tablet. In both, a butler goes back to his childhood home, and helps remodel the home and garden. You get to help him choose how the home and garden look, and they are very addicting games!

  • Garden Veggie Straws
    These are SO good! I don't know what it is about these things, but these straws are addicting, and they are good for you!

  • Spotify
    I gave in and got a Spotify account, and absolutely love it. I can make different playlists for if whenever I want to listen to one genre one day, and another genre another day. I have been getting into podcasts lately, and I have been listening to them on Spotify.
