Things I love

Candice

I TRY not to do many fluffy pieces on my blog because I am a *serious* blogger… ha…

But I’m feeling like I need some non-seriousness going on here today. It’s been one of those… er… months? And don’t say “But Candice, the month just started like 6 days ago!”

I used to post things that I found online that I liked, dorky things that made me happy. You can check them out here and here. So I think I’m going to revisit doing that and share some things that I love!

Comfort books – Yesterday afternoon I was feeling kind of weird so I thought I really needed something comforting. Since I gave up meat for Lent I knew I couldn’t do something like comfort food (my comfort food does NOT include a meatless meal). I also wasn’t in the mood to watch a comfort movie. So I decided to indulge in the ultimate comfort: my worn out, Post-It marked copy of Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married. I pulled this off my shelf the minute I got home and dove in. It was like coming home, wrapping myself up in a warm blanket, snuggling on the couch. After nearly 10 years of loving this book, I’m still not sure exactly what it is that makes it such a comfort other than the fact that it is.

Lizzie Bennet Diaries – This is my newest obsession. And when I obsess, I OBSESS. Like I cannot stop watching the videos, despite that I’ve seen them all. Even though I know what happens in this story, I WANT TO KNOW IF DARCY AND LIZZIE GET TOGETHER! Like I am epically invested in this story and am yearning (yes, yearning) for more!

Mod Cloth Clothing – While I will most likely never buy anything from this website, it’s one of my favorite sites to peruse when I need a little pick-me-up. I love fantasizing about where I would wear different dresses to – a party, the beach, a picnic in spring… seriously, these fantasies are a little too detailed, but whatever. (Not-so) Guilty pleasure!

  1. I love the picture of Sailor Moon. I used to love that as a kid, and it makes me feel all nostalgic.

    I have comfort reads, too! They’re probably Julie Garwood’s books – either The Secret, Saving Grace, Honor’s Splendor . . . yeah, I like almost all of her historical romances. Now I want to re-read one. My copies are really beat up, too.

    So glad you are LOVING Lizzie Bennet! Counting today’s episode, there’s only 7 episodes left! I am not ready for it to be over, but at the same time I want Lizzie and Darcy to finally get together.

    Now I need to go check out Mod Cloth Clothing. 🙂

  3. I LOVE the Lizzie Bennet Diaries! With the last few episodes, they actually made me not 100% loathe Lydia like I do in the book. Somehow, LBD redeemed my least favorite literary character (who is not overtly evil) of all time, so that’s a win. 😀

  4. I’m pretty darn obsessed with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and I only started watching it last weekend! I tore through all the current episodes like crazy and now I’m dying to see how it ends (even though I kind of know how it ends, if you catch my drift). I definitely need more Darcy in my life! ❤

  5. The LBD is so fun! And comfort reads are the best. Somedays you need to push your obligations aside and indulge in an old favorite.
    That Sailor Moon pic is so cute OMG!

  6. I love perusing ModCloth too! The dresses are so pretty (I also love their outerwear and quirky jewelry) and I end up pinning a lot of the clothes to Pinterest! 🙂
