Over the winter I saw Jamie, from The Perpetual Page Turner, release a post that was very similar to a favorite things post. I really liked the idea behind it and decided it was time for me to post some of my favorite things. This will be a monthly feature on my blog where I will post some of the things I loved in the month/month before.It will be anything from an item of clothing that I wore the bejeezus out of, a book I was obsessed with, a TV show I got hooked on, or even a gif I found and loved. Basically anything can pop up so be ready.
Since this is the beginning of January and my first Favorite Things post, I will be posting some of my favorite things from 2017:
1) I got to meet both Stephanie Perkins and Sarah Ockler (on the same day) over the summer. It was one of my favorite days of the year!
2) I binged watched Prison Break in February of 2017. I’m not even kidding you I couldn’t stop watching it and I finished it well before it came back for a fantastic 5th season. Such an amazing show!
3) I opened my first Etsy shop: Cards by Andrea S.
4) The Patriots won another Super Bowl and I got to finally see all 5 banners together on New Years Eve when I went to the final game of the regular season (In sub zero temps…WORTH IT!).
5) I fell in love with my new fur vest and winter coat, both from J Crew.
6) I met my reading challenge for 2017. It took me reading 18 books in December but I did it!
7) I read a lot of great books (not counting rereads) in 2017. A few of them are: Furyborn, Letters to the Lost, More Than We Can Tell, All Things New, and Tower of Dawn.
So there you have it, some of my favorite things from 2017.
What were your favorites?
Seeing your favorite team is always worth it, even if it is freezing!
I love these types of posts and will be interested to see what you post in the upcoming months.
Some of my favorite things from 2017 were graduating with my Master’s in August and the birth of my godson in October. I also got to spend a LOT of time with my dog which has been great.
Andi! We’re coat twins! I got the same one from JCrew on Black Friday. Best sale ever! And I just requested Furyborn! The hype has really gotten to me for that one!
I watched Prison Break when it was first on TV. I confess I never moved beyond the third season or whatever season it is where they are in a South American prison. Your excitement makes me want to rewatch it though!
I love this idea for a feature! It’s so nice to learn a bit more about fellow bloggers besides just their bookish tastes, and I especially love seeing what other bloggers are finding in terms of clothes and beauty buys. I can’t wait to read more of these posts!
