Calming Lavender Shea Butter Lip BalmI like lavender, but I wasn't sure about putting it on my lips. Never fear: this stuff smells and tastes quite nice. And it feels rich and luxurious. I went through a tube of this fairly quickly, since I was obsessively-compulsively putting it on.
$5.00, Caswell-Massey
Forever 21 SunglassesI'm kind of a Forever 21 evangelist. I especially like the store's sunglasses, which, like this pair, are simple and nicely shaped. They're also insanely cheap.

The Lady & Sons Hoe Cake MixI've had daydreams about eating at The Lady & Sons again ever since I visited Savannah, Georgia. Besides the fried chicken and creamed spinach, my favorite dish was the fried cornbread "hoe cakes." Turns out you can buy hoe cake mix from The Lady & Sons online. I'm excited to give it a try.
