Top Two on Tuesday

Top Two Tuesday!  What's on my favorite list today?  Two very opposite things, I assure you, and neither of them have to do with food.  That's an accomplishment, right?!

Favorite #1:  Birchbox

My friend, Erika, got me started on Birchbox.  It's an online company that, for $10/month, they send you sample items to try and if you like, you can order a full size version from their site.  It's very easy to sign up, and it's really fun to get the little box in the mail each month!  I found a new eyeliner I really like, as well as a new sunscreen for my face!!  

Favorite #2:  The view from my back deck!

When we built the house, we knew we wanted a walk out basement, which meant we would have an upper deck back porch type thing. Haha!  I, however, didn't want steps going down to the ground from the back deck, so our deck is not accessible to the ground.  I'm a chicken, and didn't want anyone to have easy access to the top level of the house if they climbed the back stairs.  Plus, I have seen far too many movies where the people look out on their back porch/deck and someone is standing there looking in!  The view we have, to me, is gorgeous.  We typically see all kinds of wildlife, so it's pretty neat.  

  

My favorites didn't seem very exciting today, but I am one tired lady!!  Only 2 1/2 more days of school, then 10 days of summer school, then to VA for National Jr. Beta Convention!  THEN my summer might get to start! Ha!  

Thanks for stopping by!  Happy Reading!
