Mix of This & That

This post doesn't have a specific focal topic...just a little bit of everything but the kitchen sink.  And speaking of the kitchen sink...I am obsessed with Mrs. Meyers cleaning products and dish soaps!   In my area, most stores carry a limited selection of scents and products...I've only been able to find two scents Lavender and Lemon.  I currently have the multi surface spray and dish soap in the Apple Cider scent...and just received both in Peppermint!  I've also discovered a host of products from laundry soap & dryer sheets to room spray!  And a new scent called Snowdrop!  Cannot wait to try it...I only wish they were available locally...

While searching for any Mrs. Myers products the other day....I came across some great home decor items in the home goods selection of the grocery store...at first glance I thought this platter and dishware were Melamine...but they are glass...and quite well priced...

If this one had been a bit smaller I would have picked it up to set my spray & cleaner on at the kitchen sink...

I almost had one of these adorable gingerbread houses in my cart (and discovered they light up).  But at $14 + taxes...I thought they were a bit overpriced.  But it was hard to leave behind....and I wouldn't be surprised if one shows up in a post down the road.  Not saying I will get one...but I'm crushing hard on one right now...

And since grand baby's name begins with A...I could not resist this adorable mitten for her Christmas tree...

Also in the grocery store...they have a clothing section!  I had to take a stroll through...and ended up picking up this pretty casual dress...it is so me.  I plan to pair it with leggings and ankle boots...

And since I loved the dress so much...the fabric is so soft and comfortable...I got a similar style top...to wear with jeans...the peplum bottom sits just about the waist..and hides a multitude of sins...just sayin'.  The picture makes is appear really short...but in fact it is not. 

And I'm all about comfy sleep/lounge wear!  Especially when they are cotton/jersey mix...I'm not a fan of flannel bottoms...so these fit the bill perfectly!  Very soft and comfortable...and festive!

I've also been meaning to post about the pottery mugs I got a few weeks back!  I'm not a fan of large mugs...it's just too much tea for me.  (I don't drink coffee).  I discovered these ones on Amazon....sold in sets of two...I originally ordered two sets.  Upon receiving them...and knew they were perfect for us...I quickly ordered two more sets....for a complete set of eight.  Others must like them as well....as they sold out & became unavailable very quickly!

I was very glad to get my second order in & received quickly.  Some might see it as a downfall...as they are not to be put in the dishwasher.  While they are glazed on the inside..they are pottery...and if continually run through the dishwasher the exterior will fade.  That's not a game changer for me...we only use two mugs at a time...so very easy to give a quick hand wash....worth the little extra work in my opinion...I've never had mugs I like as much as these...they are microwave safe as well!!

And finally want to share the new headboard...I haven't done much Christmas decor in the main bedroom..I may add a couple of pieces....but for now...a pretty cushion & warm throw will have to suffice...

The light is not great in our home at the best of times...and it being November...it's been wet and gray skies for days now....I wasn't sure I'd have sun coming through the windows any time soon...

I'm very happy with the headboard...and find it doesn't look near as larger once installed and the box spring & mattress & bedding added. 

That's my catch all for today.  We didn't get the amount of rain or wind forecasted...some places did get a bit of wet snow flurries...but all in all...we were unscathed. 

Thank you so much for spending some time with me...I hope you have an awesome day wherever you are!
