Five on Friday

Wow, the last Friday of September already? Hopefully I can hang on to some warm temps a bit longer even as we start losing daylight...

1. Soon, Sean and I will be headed on vacation to Key West with some friends. It's my first time there and while we've done plenty of reading on TripAdvisor, etc., I'd love to hear suggestions of your favorite things to do in the Keys if you've been!

2. Essential oil lovers: Ads keep popping up in my feed for Organica's sleep cream which is supposed to be miraculous stuff. I can't bring myself to spend $35 on lotion, but a little reading quickly revealed that it boasts a blend of lavender, cedarwood, and bergamot—all oils I have in my arsenal! I've been putting all 3 in my diffuser at night, and so far I've definitely felt more rested when I wake up in the morning.

3. As I transition to cooler weather clothes, I've decided to give another subscription box a try: Dia & Co! Keep an eye out for my first unboxing, and check them out in the meantime (if you want to snag a box now, use ebates  for a $10 rebate. I actually got paid $10 for my first box!)

4. Many of my family members have birthdays that fall close to Christmastime, which means I start my gift shopping especially early. I started using Zulily earlier this year to find deals and new brands and it's been a cool new way to shop for gifts; I've already got two checked off my list! It's fun to check in every day to see what is new. (Pro tip: allow plenty of time for shipping!)

5. This weekend, I'm dropping off our fourth foster pup to a potential fur-ever home! We're going to miss this silly cutie:

Have a great weekend!
