This month has been the slightest taste of 2017 and from what I can tell, it doesn't seem too terrible. In case you need some motivation in the cold, tired, or ill, its about 320 days until Christmas, and thats all you need to hear. Without further ado, the monthly faves.

Spotify playlist. This mine has a lot of gems in it, simply due to the new year. The next best thing to being talked about at the end of the year, is being the only thing talked about at the beginning, at least in the music world. That being said, artists have been coming out with material left and right and below.

Glam Glow GLOWSTARTER Mega Illuminating Moisturizer. If you are on the hunt for a new moisturizer or just want your face to feel hydrated and glowy, you at least need a finger of this stuff. With very very light shimmer and a champagne mask, you will soon be confused with someone very holy.

Chocolate Holler. In light of local favorites, this one is easily added to the list. As an extension of a regular coffee hub, this unique chocolatier takes Willy Wonka to the brim. Whether you're in the mood for liquid cookie dough hot chocolate or a flight of chocolates with a splash of milk, @chocolateholler has you covered (in chocolate).

This Is Us. Yes, this is indeed the TV show everyone has been talking about. I haven't exactly gotten caught up to the real time NBC releases, but from what I have seen, I can tell why this appeals to so many people. Also, Mandy Moore being back on the globe is very ideal.

Made Good Chocolate Chip Granola Bars. I definitely used to be loyal to the Crunchy Peanut Butter Clif Bars, I'm not gonna lie, but recently these bars are what I've been reaching for. Surprisingly made with vegetables, and free from 8 allergens or so, these pack a large taste and multiple flavors for maximum yummy.

Tune in next month for the new new.
