Here is some stuff for you to know about:

1. Aveeno Skin Relief Moisturizing Lotion. If you tend to be dry and uncomfortable in the winter- this stuff is AMAZING. It's unscented and it feels so good on your skin.

2. Huggable hangers at The Container Store. These hangers do not leave any weird indentiations on your clothes and because of their very thin profile, they make your clothes take up less space than other hangers. Also, your clothes do not slip off these hangers.

3. Smart Wool socks. www.smartwool.com They are expensive. They are also worth it. They help prevent blisters, they're very good looking and a lot of them come in sizes so you can have a really good fit!

4. Dark chocolate caramels from Trader Joes. These are amazing treats. They are rich and delicious and the most perfect after dinner sweet. I eat two of them after dinner and they totally satisfy my sweet tooth without being a ton of calories or carbs!

5. WEN shampoo. www.wenhaircare.com This is a weird shampoo. It's sulfate free and it seems more like a conditioner than a shampoo. I got the cucumber mint formula and I was very wary. But! I love it! It's very invigorating to my scalp, my hair feels truly clean and is really shiny. It also does not weigh down my hair, which is important since my hair is so fine and so straight. There is another forumla for damaged hair, but I tell you this, I would not recommend that forumla unless your hair is REALLY damaged. I also recommend not using QUITE as much as is recomemnded. The directions say to use 16-24 pumps, but I get by with 10 pumps nicely. I expect longer and thicker hair needs more, but you get the idea.
