I am a very firm believer that every once in a while you need to take a moment, stop what you're doing, and enjoy something that makes you happy. Often times that manifests itself as a large pan of brownies for me, but hey, can't put a price (or weight) on happiness, right?
Anyway, It doesn't have to be expensive, or have a lot of details…it just has to make you smile. I've found two things that I've just about become obsessed with lately and I thought I would share them with you. Consider it a little extra push to get you to the long weekend.
1. Be Grateful Soy Candle {find it here}
If you can be in love with a scent then I'm head over heels. I was perusing the shelves of Target (big surprise there) for a candle for our house when I found this one. I lit it as soon as I got home and I haven't looked back. It's relaxing. It's fresh. It's subtle. It's perfect. The scents listed on the candle are "cucumber and sea petals with essential oils of mandarin peel and lavender." Just the words alone had me sold, but probably my favorite part about the candle is that it is really slow burning. I bought this one at the beginning of August and it still has a few days left in it's burning life. Call me crazy for being obsessed with a candle, but I promise it's amazing.
2. Wild Cub- Thunder Clatter {buy their music here} {visit their website here}
I know we're going from one extreme to another jumping from a candle to a band, but I never said there was rhyme or reason to this! I recently found this band and I can't stop listening to their music. I just purchased their album, Youth, on iTunes (seriously, go buy it). The song Thunder Clatter really makes me happy. I'm not in love with the video, but I can't stop listening to the song!
Have you taken time to enjoy something that makes you happy lately? Do it! Treat yourself!
