JJ’s Favorite Things – Need a Good Book? I Have One For You!

Man do I have some great things for you in today's JJ's Favorite Things!

I know that collagen was a hot thing last year and all.  And jumped on that train.  But I've loved the results so much that I continue to use it every single day.  I dissolve a teaspoon into my coffee every morning.  It's completely tasteless and the "Collagen Hydrolysate" dissolves easily.  You will never even know it's in your coffee.  Or tea.  Or water.  Whatever.  And the benefits are awesome!  My skin is brighter, better and more supple.  Not to mention my hair and nails...  If you're looking for a little extra protein in your diet, give this a try.  After a week, you won't be able to put it down.

Because I was born in the South, I was basically raised on pimento cheese.  It's a food group in Georgia.  It sounds gross, but it's really heaven in a little bowl.  Eat it on crackers, on white bread, on pretzels, in deviled eggs, straight outta the container.... I love it.  There's a great brand that you can find at Walmart - Palmetto Pimento Cheese - but it can be hard to find sometimes.  Enter Trader Joe's Pimento Cheese Dip.  Yum.  I finished this container in less time than is appropriate to talk about.  Try it.

I LOVE this scent!  It's light and airy, but still strong in just the right way.  I spray a little on me before I run out for some errands or before I hit up the gym.  I have the spray, the candle, the Wallflower...  Obviously I adore it.

I've been on the waiting list at my library for this book forever.  It popped into my Kindle app yesterday and I'm already half way through the book.  It's that good.  Summary - Hannah is a struggling 29-year old.  She moves home after some years to try to get her life together.  While at a party, she is left with a decision - leave with her friend or stay with an old flame... Each chapter then alternates with what happens if she stayed or if she left.  Try to put it down after the first few chapters.

I feel like I'm forever looking for a good, but inexpensive primer...  Until now.  Ulta's Mattifying Primer meets both of those requests.  It's light, but works.  I have pretty oily skin and this helps to keep everything in check.  And it's $18.  And a little goes a long way.  Plus, you can get it on sale quite often.

Like anything here??  Let me know some of your favorite things and maybe I'll give them a try and feature it here on JJ's Favorite Things!
