Every year Oprah comes out with her favorite things in her December issue of O magazine. Her last list includes 107 items, well my list only has 25 items. It is decidedly different than Oprah’s. All of my items are relatively affordable, and a few don’t have a cost at all thing. Let me know what you think?
1. Music - Music is powerful, and I love it. There are so many different ways people can express themselves through music, and the beats and melodies we hear can draw us into the mood we are feeling. When I’m driving, I am usually jamming to a favorite song, and I am happy. Music can also wash out all my thoughts and stresses of the day. Music can have such a profound effect on our lives. Below are just a few reasons why you should love and appreciate music.
a. It motivates you. It can get your moving when you just don’t want to.
b. It is timeless. Just imagine a song coming on from the 80s, and you still know the words.
c. It brings people together. Just look at how people jump to the dance floor when the Electric Slide come on.
d. It heals. There’s always a song that can make the day brighter. Like one of my new favorites, Nina Cried Power by Hozier.
2. Peanut Butter - My favorite is JIF Extra Crunchy. Check our JIF’s website for some fun recipes for cookies. There is a Flourless Peanut Butter Cookie recipe that uses yellow cornmeal. I wonder how that taste. jif.com
3. My Three Sons Pimento Cheese - Specifically, Spicy White Cheddar is my favorite. I can eat this right out the tub, but it is also good on a grilled cheese sandwich, on crackers, and spread on pepperoni slices. There is none like it. They also have a recipe page. I plan to make the Baked Potato Soup next week. Look for the review to follow. mtsgourment.com
4. Essential Oils - My all-time favorite brand is doterra. Their oils are carefully and thoroughly tested using strict CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® quality protocol. They are safe to use and have a higher quality standard. doterra.com
5. Origins Blooming Sheer Lip balm - They nourish, hydrates & conditions my lips for hours. My two (2) favorites for daytime wear are Nude Nectar and Pink Blossom. origins.com
6. Apple products - My iPhone Xs is AWESOME! And I love my MacBook Air, so light, so powerful. Check out apple.com to see more of the offerings. So much to see…. The possibilities will make your head spin.
7. Magic Bullet - Discover the endless versatility of the Magic Bullet. I usually only use my bullet for smoothies, but since going to their website, I discovered other uses. It assists with chopping, making salsa, grinding coffee beans, and making a batter for pancakes, who knew??

8. Peepers Reading Glasses - This one actually came from Oprah’s list back in 2017. I ordered a pair and fall in love. I even ordered a pair of sunglass reader for those days I am sitting on the beach pretending to read when I am actually sleeping. peepers.com
