Things I’m Into – July 2015

Photo 2015-07-14, 4 33 54 PMSo…it has been a while since I have written a blog (3 months and a few days, to be exact).

I often have really good ideas for my blog, but life has been so busy with travel and work that I haven’t had the time to sit down and actually type them. I have two awesome blog ideas in my head for traveling on a budget (stay posted!) but today I will be sharing the things that I have been into this month.

Food

Fred and I went a road trip this month and our favourite snack food was Chicago Mix. This is a beautiful blend of cheddar cheese and caramel popcorn. So incredibly delicious.

We seriously ate it almost every time we had a long driving day, we had some at Disneyland, we ate some on the beach…you get the idea. If you’ve never had it, you should pick up a bag as soon as you can. You won’t regret it!

To Wear

Love it. I’ve worn it at least twice a week since I bought it 3 weeks ago.

Audio

On our road trip, we spent a lot of time in the car, and we listened to music, an audio book, and lots of podcasts. My favourite thing that we listened to is a new podcast called Mystery Show. I used to think that podcasts were just sermons, but there are hundreds (well, at least dozens) of interesting podcasts out there that feature a broad range of topics.

Mystery Show has 5 episodes so far, and every one is a winner. Download the first one to listen to, and you’ll want to listen to them ALL.

Television

I loved it so much that I went back and I have been watching through the series lately. It’s so funny, and has been the perfect background noise for my current hobby.

It’s fun, frugal, and personal, but it does take a lot of time, so it’s nice to be able to have something else to do/watch/listen to while I am working. The Office has been great for that!

So that’s a little glimpse into my life this month. What things have you been into lately?

Leave me a comment below and share with me. I’d love to hear about what you’re into!
