2012: January Obsessions!


Ah, a new years is upon us! Which also means that I have found new items to obsess over! Here is my list of current obsessions:


I discovered this show on Netflix a few weeks ago... and I could not stop watching! I think I watched all three seasons in two days. This is a reality series from the Discovery Channel about expeditions to climb Mount Everest, and it is totally intense. I always assumed climing the highest mountain in the world was hard, but I didn't know about how dangerous and deadly it is! Frost bite, dead bodies, altitude sickness, avalanches... Crazy! If you are looking for something interesting/different to watch one day, I highly recommend this series!

I'm such a snacker, and my sweet tooth has been out of control since the holidays. I read about snacking on frozen grapes in a fitness magazine, so I decided to give it a whirl. I must say, they are a tasty frozen treat! Take red grapes, rinse them, place them in a tupperware in the freezer and... Voila! A healthy, sweet snack!

Now that I'm in my 30's and I finally quit breaking out (Hallelujah!), I have been on the hunt for a new skincare routine. I may have found it in Philospohy. Purity Made Simple is a one-step cleanser that removes make-up, cleans skin, and doesn't dry me out. I use it morning and night, and my skin has been looking great! I've also started using their Hope In A Jar moisturizer... and I think I'm in love!

I had my first H&M experience in my home town last weekend! I'm not usually a "hip" dresser, but I was able to buy a few pieces that I wouldn't normally buy because the prices are very reasonable (I bought 5 shirts, a pair of skinny jeans and a tuxedo jacked for under $150.00). Their clothes are cute, fashionable, and they have a great selection of fun pieces and neutrals. I wish San Antonio had an H&M!


What are your obsessions this month?

Hey! I found your blog via a comment left on Jamie's blog and have to ask you about your moisturizer!!! I have wacky skin that is sometimes dry, sometimes oily, sometimes clear, and sometimes zitty... I started using a little sample-size tub of Clinique's "even better" moisturizer, but I am now OUT and the tub costs something like 30 bucks and I can't justify spending that on my face at this point. LOL Where do you get your moisturizer from? Is it crazy expensive too?

Also, LOVE H&M. Hate how they save those store for a select few cities though. ;)

You can get the Philosophy moisturizer at Ulta or Sephora. I think it's also available at the BX/PX. It's about the same price as Clinique. Ulta always sends out coupons for their products, so I'm trying to save a little when I buy it. :)

I've got oily/dry/crazy skin myself, and this one has worked well for me.

I am going to be 30 in a couple months. I hope I stop breaking out then too! ;)
