Target Finds

Happy Wednesday! It's time for another edition of Target Finds! It's been a couple of months since I've shared a Target Finds post, so I thought it'd be fun to share one today. Trust me, I've been ordering stuff at Target, but it's primarily been essentials that I bought, which is why I haven't shared anything. I'm sure you all don't want to know about the usual essentials. Right?

Ready to see what I found recently at Target? Well, let's check it out.

Mother's Halloween Circus Animal Cookies

These taste like the regular Mother's Circus Animal Cookies, but they were in the shape of bats and cats. My boys loved them, and it was a simple way to celebrate fall and Halloween season. 

Didn't See That Coming by Rachel Hollis

This was somewhat of an impulse buy. When I first saw this book, I didn't buy it. I kept going back and forth on purchasing it. I read the back cover of the book, and it really interested me. This will be the first book by Rachel Hollis that I've read. I'm hoping that it's a good read. I'll have to do some research because I ended up finding out that there's been some controversy surrounding her. 

Dear Justyce by Nic Stone

I haven't read this book yet, but I was so excited to buy it. It's been on my TBR list since before it was actually out in bookstores. I enjoyed reading Dear Martin so I knew that I had to pick the sequel as soon as it was released. I will definitely share a review of Dear Justyce after I finish reading it.

Pepperidge Farm Milano Pumpkin Spice Cookies

I'm a big fan of the Milano cookies, so I was excited to find this limited-edition flavor. I am fairly certain that Pepperidge Farm never had a pumpkin spice cookie, so it was a nice surprise. My boys also loved these cookies. I only had two cookies before they got a hold of the bag and devoured them. I've since bought several more bags. 


Overall, I found some great things at Target. As usual, I was able to save on all of my Target Finds by using the Cartwheel app and buying items on sale.

What are some of your favorite Target Finds?

If You and I Had Coffee



If you and I had coffee...

We'd meet at a little coffee shop (and practice social distancing...of course). We'd order some seasonal beverages and pastries. After getting our drinks and food, we'd take a walk around the neighborhood.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd ask how you are doing? With everything going on in the world right now, it's important to know how our friends and family are coping. I'd ask you if you were able to go out and vote. Or are you planning on voting by mail? 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd ask you what are you currently into? What are your favorite shows or movies at this moment? What are you currently reading? Are there any songs that are stuck in your head? 

I'd tell you that I've been reading a bunch. I'm excited about Mindy Kaling's Nothing Like I Imagined (Except for Sometimes) collection on Amazon. I also can't wait to read Dear Justyce by Nic Stone and Solutions and Other Problems by Allie Brosh. There are many books that I still need to finish reading and a massive amount of books on my bookshelves that I want to read. It's starting to get hard to choose which ones to read next. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I've been feeling so creative. I actually worked on several pocket page layouts and even worked in my journal as well. I have no idea why I'm always so much more creative in fall, but I love it. I still have to work on some projects and a couple of blog posts, but I'm feeling so good and hopeful. I feel like my creative energy has been replenished. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd thank you for taking the time to meet with me. It really does mean a lot to me. I'd tell you I can't wait for our next coffee date. 


What would you tell me?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
