Another month has flown by – I feel like I blink and all of a sudden I have to flip my calendar again!
April was a month of diving back into more *normal* activities (more eating out with friends, vaccinations, people in town, going back to a workout studio, etc.!) and it’s definitely been an adjustment, but in the best way.
I feel like I’m regaining my footing a bit (the first few months of the year were a bit of a mess for me, to be honest!) and I’m feeling super hopeful for the one ahead. I’ve been working more on creating for myself, which as you know is my favorite thing and my passion, and am trying to set better boundaries, a better work/life balance, and fill my cup first. It’s an ongoing journey, but I’m confident we’re going in the right direction!
And with that being said, we’ve got some pretty awesome favorites to round up in this post from good eats and workout gear to comfy clothes, green beauty and home items! Let’s get into it…
Trader Joe’s Wheat Noodles – These are brand new and they’re absolutely delicious! I’ve seen people make peanut noodles with them, but I turned them into a soup bowl with their Miso Ginger Broth, an egg and dried seaweed, and now I can’t stop eating it.
Midday Squares – You guys know me, I try a lot of bars and a lot of chocolate, but these squares are some of the best I’ve tried in months!! Every flavor is amazing the the Peanut Butta is my absolute weakness. You can use the code JORDAN15 to save!
Rose Petal Ice Cubes – I started making these for a client’s content and now I’m absolutely obsessed. I just add these edible dried rose petals to the water before freezing and they’re so fun in cocktails and sparkling water!
Love Sweat Fitness Yoga Mat – It can be strangely difficult to find a good workout mat, but this one is so thick, slip-resistant and double sided. It’s also the prettiest print and makes me happy when I use it!
INNBeauty Project Mist – I’ve tried a few things from this new clean beauty brand, but this toner/makeup setting spray is the one I use most often!! I really feel like it makes my makeup last, and I love that it has witch hazel because my skin is prone to breakouts these days!
Alba Acne Gel – Speaking of acne, I have such a hard time finding good, affordable spot treatments and this one is awesome. It’s a clean beauty brand as well, and you can feel it working (it stings sometimes, but just a little!).
Mask Chain – I was so resistant to get one of these at first because they remind me of those sunglass chains, but they are SO GREAT and so functional!! I have a couple I love, the pearl one is from Yochi NY (code Jordan20) and the one with my name on it is from my friend Mindi’s company Sister Stacks!
Abercrombie Active Mini Dress – I originally bought this on a whim without expecting to absolutely freaking LOVE it, but I wear it at least once a week. It’s suuuuper comfy and has built in shorts, which I love! I’m about to order another in pink actually…
Egg Chair – In 110% honesty, this chair is the best money I’ve spent in awhile. I rarely used to sit outside on our patio because our chairs weren’t super comfortable, but this chair is unbelievably comfortable! I’m on it any chance I get and Alex and I actually have to trade off because we both love it so much!
And that’s all we’ve got for April, folks!! It was a wonderful, quick, and exciting month, and I’m looking forward to what May has in store. Life is really feeling much more normal again, it’s crazy! Hope you have a wonderful weekend and thank you for being here, as always.
