5 Things We Love Right Now

by

Candles

I’ve written before in this space about how much I love Glade (Gla-day) candles, and the pumpkin scent is my fave. It has a new name each year. This year the “Pumpkin Spice Things Up” returns, and it smells as good as ever. My younger made fun of me when I went out and purchased several, however she came home the next day and said, “What smells SO good?” Of course, it’s my candle. Available at local retailers.

Coffee Cream

If budget and diet allowed, I’d enjoy a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks on the regular. Since I don’t have as often as I’d like, I’ve discovered that the Pumpkin Spice Latte Creamer is a pretty darn good substitute. While the bottle design leaves a little to be desired (that’s another story for another day), the product inside the bottle makes for a tasty cup of coffee that is the perfect start to a crisp fall day! Available at local retailers.

Lotion

My mom usually treats me with one or two pumpkin-themed gifts throughout the season, and a few years ago gave me Pumpkin Harvest lotion from Stonewall Kitchen. In addition to the awesome scent, it also works well by leaving your hands soft and not greasy. Fun fact: My mom told me many years ago that when putting lotion on your hands, you should also put it on your elbows. This advice has served me well! StonewallKitchen.com

Lip Balm

The cooler temps and drier weather in fall can sometimes wreak havoc on my lips. That’s why I always have a good lip balm handy. I keep one in my car, my purse, by the kitchen sink, next to my bed…you get the picture. For fall, the EOS Whipped Pumpkin Latte lip balm packs that one-two punch of having a lovely scent while also keeping lips super smooth! And, they come in a 2-pack, so I’ve got plenty to place around the house! Available at local retailers.

Pumpkin Spice Oreos

My mom keeps an array of flavors of Oreos in her cupboard for when the grandkids come over. She calls it the Oreo Buffet and jokes that she isn’t a grandma that bakes, but she always has cookies! Because of the Oreo buffet, I’ve tried many different flavors. Some work, some don’t. I was unsure when I saw the Pumpkin Spice Oreos but took a chance and it turned out that this flavor does work! For a sweet, fall treat, give them a try! Available at local retailers.
