My Favorite Things: Gifts, Goodies & Giveaways {Intro}

Okay, so my Favorite Things list is likely NOT to be as super fabulous as the gal with the letter "O" at the beginning of her name. Nor is My Favorite Things list going to be anywhere close to as costly as the aforementioned "fabulous" list. In fact, My Favorite Things are just that, my favorites because they are thrifty, real-life, or practical in use. So, it is with a heart of sharing my real-life and loves that I will be bringing you a new series of monthly posts called My Favorite Things.

My Favorite Things list will be full of great D.I.Y. (Do-It-Yourself) ideas, guilty pleasures (and things I like too much to feel guilty over), real-food recipes, and goodies for your home, family and daily life. Mix with a few fun giveaways from me to you.

One of my newest favorite things: Crochet Mug Cozy

I will be beginning My Favorite Things in the month of December with a few last-minute favorite things that will help you with gifting . . . pssst, just in case you missed it, you have less than 10 days left, so you may want to knock that list out so that you can focus on your family. Just saying. ;) You can expect my first post by tomorrow, featuring 10 Gifts Kids Can Make: My Favorite Things.

One of my favorite morning starters: Christmas Blend from Starbucks,
Penzey's Hot Chocolate & my French Press.
We have a tendency toward enjoying "French" things . . .
not that the French like us back or anything!

I hope you will join in the My Favorite Things fun by sharing some of your own ideas and things. This is an opportunity to get to know the "real" Joyful Socks . . . if you were so inclined. I would like to get to know the "real" you, too.

What is your FAVORITE THING to use for self-care during the busy season?
