TJ Maxx Spring Shopping

Wow! That is all I have to say about my local TJ Maxx – wow! Shopping at TJ Maxx can be less than relaxing with hoards of shoppers, messy shelves and sifting through one-of-a-kind products. But on my recent TJ Maxx spring shopping trip I was impressed by the store. There were tons of associates, […]

World Market Outdoor Furniture

Anyone else suffering from a bad case of spring fever?  Are you dreaming of lazy afternoons on the patio soaking up gentle warmth? I know!  So am I.  That motivated me to pop into World Market this week and take a peek at their new outdoor furniture offerings. And guess what?  They are all really […]

Spring Refresh – No Shopping

With longer, warmer days, I was ready for a spring refresh, but not ready for shopping. I dug out all my Easter/Spring stuff and used a bit of it here and there. Right after Christmas I did my bigger spring decorating because winter is so depressing to me. I’ve been happy with the simple clean […]

Thrift with Me

Thanks for spending some time while I visit my favorite local senior-dog rescue shop, and thrift with me. The impetus (is that a word?) for a recent visit to Rusty’s was to look for some barware. If that seems random, stay with me here. Our bar is in a corner off the beaten path of […]

Aldi Organization

I know I’ve posted about Aldi before and you know I love their charcuterie section (who wouldn’t?) but today it’s all about Aldi organization products. Hopefully you have access to an Aldi’s because you’re going to want to go there. These organization products have gone viral and I can see why. The quality is great […]

Early Spring Refresh

Okay, I’m pretty sure January is not considered spring in anyone’s encyclopedia.  As in, it is the dead of winter.  But my mood badly needed an early spring refresh. I would not call this a redecorate, but I added a few cheerful touches that put me right in the spring mindset. Come along and let […]

Valentine Shop With Me

If you’re ready to celebrate the holiday of love, or if you just want to look at cute red and pink hearts, come along and Valentine shop with me! I’m not sure that I really need any Valentine merch, but I did get out and see some adorable things I don’t need but want to […]

Beauty Haul

It feels funny using the word “beauty” associated with my cosmetic and skin care routine, but I don’t know what else to call my latest purchases.  After a trip to TJ Maxx and Ulta, I got a nice beauty haul to share with you. It’s always good for me to stop by TJ Maxx before […]

Hello, my friends.  Potpourri is my chatty post catching you up on what we have been doing and providing recommendations on what I love.  And.  Maybe just letting you know about what I don’t love but what is necessary.  Like exercise. Or bad books. What I’m Doing Let me start this by saying that I […]

Shop with Me

You’ve heard of personal shoppers.  As in setting up an appointment with a store employee to help you find perfect outfits. But me?  I have a personal, personal shopper!  DF Evon has a hobby job working at J Crew Factory and gave me white glove service this week as we did some wardrobe refreshing for […]
