You shared about your hot water bottle on a coffee and crumbs podcast two winters ago and I ordered it immediately and let me tell you, I use it ALL the time. Cold in winter? Hot water bottle. Cramps? Hot water bottle. Back pain? Stomach ache? Preheating your bed sheets? Healing from a c section? Just want to feel cozy after a long day? The hot water bottle is my windex (name that movie 😊)

Sara this makes me SO HAPPY!!!!!! Maybe my favorite β€œinfluence” of all time?! I’m currently on day 2 of my period so you and I both know the depths of my love for this hot water bottle right now. And high five for the My Big Fat Greek Wedding reference πŸ˜‚πŸ‘πŸΎ

I loved none of this is true. It got me out of a book funk I had in September! It’s a thriller so kinda creepy but also I couldn’t stop reading it and finished it in like 2 days!

I feel a little unsettled about March…like things are moving quick and I can’t quite get on board! Need to process why that is and how I can stay present in this season!

Sophie. If you’re reading this on Tuesday, March 19th, hear me: you can wear white pants. I promiseπŸ˜‚ if you’re afraid of the stains, baby step with a pair on quadruple sale from old navy or something! If you’re afraid of the fit/flattering factor, I can’t recommend my Good American ones enough. I believe in you!!!!
