My Favorite Things/Amazon Style


Hello, dear friends.  How is your week going?  We have been experiencing gorgeous weather here in Massachusetts the past couple of days.  The Pats are going to have a picture-perfect day for their parade today.

Today I am linking up with Tanya at The Other Side of the Road for Prime Purchases.   Bloggers get together to post a list all of their recent buys on Amazon. A few of my purchases are reorders of products that I have mentioned previously. 

As a side note, I will be out-of-pocket for a little while.  No need to worry - I'm just off renewing my Supermodel Trophy Wife license.  




Amazon

The Mister gave me one of these knit hats equipped with earphones for Christmas.  I am amazed at the quality of the sound.




Amazon

I love this self-tanner.
  It is so natural looking and it doesn't streak or turn orange.
It also smells great.





Amazon

No more dark knuckles and cuticles after using a self-tanner for me.  
I now use this mitt.




Amazon

There are very few products that are self-tanners and have SPF in them.  I've been using this one for a couple of years.




Amazon

I replenished my supply of my favorite rich body cream.





Amazon

This sunscreen for the face is so light and gives great protection.






Amazon

These insoles make my walk bearable.
No more plantar fasciitis for moi. 





Amazon

We've been going through bags of these pill pockets, thanks to Chili's "issues." 




I haven't suffered from dry eye since I started taking a couple of these every morning.




Amazon

My favorite foundation that offers sun protection as well as buildable coverage.



Amazon

We have a Tempurpedic bed with a big, fat mattress.  We were told that the only sheets that would fit the bed had to be bought through Tempurpedic.  Not only were the sheets expensive, I didn't like the feel of them.  I took a chance and ordered these extra deep-pocket sheets.  They fit perfectly, they are very soft, and the set comes with four king pillowcases.  An added bonus:  they are reasonably priced.  





Amazon


The Mister gave me a new fancy-schmancy purse for Christmas.  It's fairly large and I had problems locating things in it. I ordered a medium sized purse organizer and it worked like a charm.  
Now the Mister can't call my bag the Bermuda Triangle anymore! 


Amazon

I liked it so much that I ordered an extra large one for my new tote!


Amazon

I recently got a new phone so I ordered this packet of screen savers.  
The Mister put it on for me and raved about the quality.  






 I purchased the Audible of this book.
If you love spine-tingling thrillers, this book is for you. 



I just started this one on Audible.


Amazon

I'm reading and enjoying this novel a lot.


Until next time...

I'm Katie. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am an empty nester meandering through my middle-aged years while entangled in the never-ending process of renovating an antique home on the South Shore of Massachusetts. I love to write about books, movies, TV, celebrities, decorating, and weekend adventures. My favorite writing material is derived from my family: the Mister, my girls, #1 and #2, and my two untrainable, rambunctious pups, Chowdah and Chili.

    I am all about the self tanners! I'm definitely going to check out that one with the spf. I recently saw the collagen lotion at Sam's club. Great finds, as usual. Thank you so much for linking up to Prime Purchases!

    Well, I already have a couple of these items and those purse organizers are perfect for purses. I'm all about being organized for sure! I bet you are loving that new phone. I'm working my way through the IPhone Academy and learning so much about what this "fancy smancy" camera will do. We'll sure miss you while your gone but will be right here waiting on you.

    Hope you have a great time taking a respite and come back renewed. Elta makes a tinted moisturizer that has great sunscreen. I use it daily in place of makeup and my rosacea has gone completely away.

    I'm seriously considering a purse organizer like the one you mentioned. I had to clean out my purse a few hours ago and may have had a few choice words go along with it!

  13. Terri DFebruary 5, 2019 at 6:30 PM

    I'm going to check out those sheets. We love our Tempurpedic mattress and I haven't had a problem getting deep-pocket sheets to fit it but soft would be nice! Thanks always for all the great recommendations!

    Katie, I sure enjoyed looking at all the things you have shown. I am going back to check some of them out. Purse organizer sounds like just what I need! I am always "digging" in the purse as my man says! LOL! Hugs and blessings, Cindy

    Love the idea of the purse organizer, but worry - does it add much extra weight to your purse?

    I enjoy your Amazon days of sharing. I always find a couple of things I didn't know how much I needed! I have to get the purse organizer for the tote. I think it will make it so much easier when I change bags. I am always looking for a light sunscreen for my face, can't tolerate a thick one. Thanks for the suggestions. Have fun where in the world you are going!

    I bought one of those music caps for my son in law for Christmas and he loves it! I like the St. Tropez self tanner too, I need to get a new one! It's fun to see what people are buying!

    I love this post, it is always great to get real reviews fro people about what they like and buy on Amazon! Love the pill pockets, my pips love them. The purse organizer is a must, it is a pain to find stuff in my bags sometimes. As always I cannot wait to order your book recommendations! Have a great day.
