Hey Friends!
Several months ago, I began sharing my weekly favorites with my email subscribers every Saturday morning. It was a fun way for me to share the things that I have been using and loving within a given week. However, for various reasons I have decided to start sharing my favorites on the blog every Friday instead. (Some weeks will be slightly different).
So what will you find in my weekly favorites?
- Books I’m reading.
- Tools for spiritual growth.
- Health + beauty products I love.
- Modest fashion finds.
- Movies we’ve watched.
- Podcast/audio recommendations.
- Sale items and finds.
- An occasional recipe – or two!
- Anything I’m using + loving and have to share!
Who’s excited? (Me!)
Now that you know what to expect from my weekly “Friday Favorites” let’s jump in and get started!
Friday Favorites {Week One}
1. A Simplified Life by Emily Ley
I found this book at Ollie’s for less than $4! I love Emily Ley’s writing style and the beautiful layout of this book. The chapters in this book cover ten key areas of a woman’s life that need order and simplification. I haven’t gotten too far into this book yet, but I can already tell it’s going to be a favorite! ♥
Amazon has this book for $6 – or you can scout around your local Ollie’s like I did!
2. Homemaking Foundations Episode #165
The Homemaking Foundations Podcast is my absolute favorite. This week I listened to episode #165: Decluttering Your Home, Decluttering Your Life… for more joy!
Clutter is one of those things that I need to keep on top of at all times – I try to go through the house and declutter a few times each year. It’s amazing how fast trash, papers, and excess “stuff” pile up! I enjoyed this podcast episode and it gave me some really helpful and practical ideas to keep on top of the clutter in our house.
3. Everything Pumpkin and Ginger
Now that it’s fall, I have been enjoying pumpkin and ginger recipes – October is the best time of year to enjoy them right? 🙂 Here are two fall treats we’ve been enjoying:
This week I’m really excited to try pumpkin chili and a sweet pumpkin dip!
4. Lavender and Thieves Diffuser Blend
Someone on Instagram mentioned blending Lavender and Thieves essential oil for a fall diffuser blend. I was a little skeptical about how those two oils would pair together – but the result is an amazing fall scent. I’ve been diffusing these two oils every day this week!
I love using essential oils – they have helped me eliminate so many toxins in our home! You can get your own starter kit of oils right here OR you can contact me right here for more information about oils.
5. EO Essentials Botanical Body Oil
I realize I’ve mentioned this oil in my favorites before but I just love it so much! I put a little bit of this oil on my face before bed and it does an excellent job moisturizing my skin while I sleep. The smell is also amazing! ♥ This is definitely one of my all-time favorite skin moisturizers!

Have a lovely weekend,
Ooo love the podcasts! Another great one is Thee Generation Podcast. You can listen on Google Play or on the website, theegeneration.org . Trust me, this podcast is AMAZING. 💖
Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll have to check it out 😊
I really like do terra’s on guard oil. It helps build your immune system and a little bit rubbed on my chest in the morning got me through flu season last year without getting sick!
