Melanie and I cover some ground in this episode; we move from our respective trips to Trader Joe’s to Alex’s Senior Night to college football (side eyes! I see yous!) to the second part of our holiday gift guide. You’ll find all the links in our show notes, but if it’s easier for you, you can also find the gift guide links in this Google doc.
And on top of the gift guide goodness, there’s also a new round of Five Favorites (my turn this time).
Enjoy, y’all!

Another excellent podcast! I think I might about have holiday shopping done :) I would so much rather listen to you talk about items and how you use them versus scrolling through a blog post ????
Thank you for keeping the price points all over the place… It really helps me buy across-the-board.
Boomama, what shade of Ilia do you use?
