January Favorites: Food + Fun.
My Whitney English planner. This was a huge favorite many months last year and I couldn’t not get one for 2015. Even the subtle changes they made this year are perfect. I also love the design I picked.
Justin’s white chocolate peanut butter cups. I’ve never been a giant fan of white chocolate but these are SO good. I can’t get enough. Addicted may not even be a strong enough word.
I haven’t read a book this month (WAH!) but when it comes to books, I’ve been absolutely loving Ashley’s Date Night In cookbook. Not only are the recipes incredible, it’s so, so, so stunning. Like so stunning that it must be displayed in my kitchen at all times.
This scarf, but in cream and gray. My mom bought me the red/purple one for my birthday, and at the same time picked up the cream one but gave it to me for Christmas. I’m scarf obsessed, but it is SO warm and gigantic and wonderful.
The crispy olive oil egg. Seriously, I have eaten two of these everyday for the last three weeks.
Third month running: Taylor Swift album. Not even shy about it.
My kate spade square studs. I’ve talked about these for YEARS as my all-time favorite earrings ever. Especially this past month when I’ve worn zero jewelry. They are perfect to throw on and aren’t something that get in Max’s face when I snuggle him.
CITRUS. I am dying over citrus right now, especially grapefruit and blood oranges. I’m taking down one or two whole grapefruits a day (I have an awesome recipe in my book for caramelized grapefruit with whipped ricotta) and could LIVE on them. Yes yes yes. Blood oranges would be the same if they didn’t cost ten million dollars.
Repeat from last month: my beyond yoga leggings. These things are INSANE. They are so warm and smooth and wonderful.
These heart dishes from williams sonoma. Unfortunately they are no longer in stock – BUT! They have been restocked a few times so fingers crossed. I bought the plates and mugs after seeing them on instagram but would kill for the platter. #priorities
Um… robes. Let the record show that I’ve NEVER been a robe person, like ever. Last month I mentioned my new ugg robe that I’m still loving. I practically live in it. But on the occasion that it gets a little too warm, I’ve also been loving this alfani one. It’s so stretchy and awesome. Does this mean I’m a typical mom?
My mom got me this sweatshirt from athleta for Christmas too (clearly I’ve done noooo shopping since mid-December) and IT IS SO SOFT. I’ve lived in it many days – when the robe just won’t cut it.
If you follow me on instagram then you totally already know this: but all of the chocolate chip cookies. My favorite recipe is this one but I also made these two weeks ago and they.were.awesome. I’m eating a cookie or two every night. This is how to live.

I’ve seen heart dishes like that on Etsy!!
Jesus God, I am having the WORST time finding those white chocolate peanut butter cups! Whole Foods, Central Market, Fresh Market…NOTHING!
I have hinted to Sean, heavily, that I want a pair of those Kate Spade square studs. I gifted a pair to my bff, but can’t seem to buy them for myself. I even sent him links to his email…he said he didn’t think I really wanted them?! I’m gonna have to buy them myself.
So glad you’re such a fan :) Also, those beyond yoga leggings are calling my naaaaame
I’m also addicted to grapefruit right now. I can have it a few times a day and not be tired of it. And oh my gosh, I love Julie’s Copycat Doubletree cookies!
Did you know the day planners are sold out. Crazy! They make me so happy.
These chocolate chip cookies are the best that I’ve ever had – browned butter, maldon sea salt on top… need I say more?!?
You MUST try them!

I say the same thing about white chocolate…can totally pass on it, always, BUT those cups. So good! I think I just clicked on every single link you posted, haha.
My dad used to fry eggs like that…who knew it was a “thing”? but he did have some Spanish blood in him, so not surprised, I guess… I want the leggings and the sweatshirt…everything cozy for these damp, cold winter days….
I’m obsessed with Athleta and that CYA sweatshirt. Also check out the Studio scoopneck. It looks exactly awful online but I swear it’s gorgeous in person, especially the royal blue color!
Killing me with the chocolate chip cookies!!! I love my KS studs! I want all of the colors.
Good picks! Love the heart dishes!
Jessica – I have been eyeing that Ugg robe since you last mentioned it as a gift to my BFF, as she’s giving birth to twins in April. But we live in Texas, and it will be April. As luxurious as the robe seems to be (and I’ve already seen it in person), do you think it would be too hot overall? I know she would love a robe, but I want to make sure it’s practical IE that she wears it night and day.
Thanks for your reviews!

oh wow – that is such an awesome gift for your friend! you are the best.
okay, so i might not be the best judge because i am ALWAYS hot. the robe has been incredible through these really cold months here in PA but there have been many times i’ve had to take it off because i’m super hot – for instance i don’t think it’s the best robe to do some morning chores in – like i would get hot cleaning up breakfast, making the bed, etc. i think it depends on if your friend is usually hot or cold?
another option would be one of these robes from pretty plum sugar. i also got one of these right before giving birth as a gift and it is very luxurious. some are in the same price range and they are super pretty. much much cooler though. there is a maternity section with ankle and floor length robes. http://store.plumprettysugar.com/habutai-silk-robes-ankle-length/

Can you suggest a good web hosting provider at a honest price? Many thanks, I appreciate it!
A healthy diet for a fit body is very necessary, same an exercise or doing yoga also necessary for everyone. a proper yoga needs a proper outfit to keep you active. I get the best outfit for my yoga at “https://goo.gl/Lu6W4z”. It is awesome and so flexible that I can easily do my yoga poses.
