I’ve had a crazy, crazy week. Honestly, I know it’s not fun for people to come to my blog as a fun, happy place and then read about stress and being overwhelmed, but honestly this wouldn’t be an authentic blog post if I came on and only recounted the good. Work has just been so, so busy all day, every single day. It’s nice that my entire team is feeling the same way, because if it was just me in this, I would be completely zonked.
That, on top of us starting the podcast up again (seriously sometimes I can’t believe I still have a podcast?) and all my other passions and interests, I’m just feeling a little run dry.
But on an INCREDIBLY high note, Taylor Swift if releasing an album in less than four hours as I’m writing this, and I couldn’t be more excited. It’s just insane to me that the power of Taylor Swift allows her to release TWO albums in one year, during a pandemic. She is a complete powerhouse.
Also, my love of Taylor Swift actually inspired me to just round up some things I am loving. It’s sort of comforting to me to remind myself of all the good things, when I’m feeling kind of bad. Let’s get started!
Cookie two step by Blue Bell
WOW, this ice cream is incredible. Basically, it’s a combination of cookies and cream and cookie dough!!! WHAT! My friend on Instagram told me she got a carton that was only cookies and no cookie dough (wow, how unfortunate), but the two cartons I have had were amazing.
Festive Red
I mentioned on a recent Instagram post that I used to be afraid of the color red but no longer. I ordered a red sweater the exact same day I posted that. Well, let’s just say, it came in, and I love it! I am a sucker for anything festive (for any holiday), and now a whole new world has opened up with the color red.
Cold Weather Accessories at My Kind of Lovely
I could seriously take one of everything in My Kind of Lovely’s new winter accessory collection. How amazing is this sherbert scarf?? You can use the code Loren15 for 15% off one item at MKL!
Podcast
We’re back to recording Nice to Have a Friend episodes, and I couldn’t be more excited about it. The episode that comes out tomorrow is my favorite we’ve ever done probably! We have new episodes every single Tuesday, and honestly the ideas we have for all of season 3 are all I’m really excited about.
Evermore
I started this post a mere hours before the album came out, and as I am finishing it on Sunday afternoon, I can confidently say it’s something I am loving lately. At first listen on on Friday at 1 a.m., I wasn’t too sure about it. I just love folklore so. much. I was worried this album was going to be the folklore rejects, but the album is growing on me. Give it a listen if you haven’t yet!
