Things I Love: October Picks

October 9, 2014 By Jennifer Leave a Comment

I’m late getting to this post, but we still have a lot of October left! So, without further ado, here are just some of the things I’m loving in October.

october picks

1. Gilmore Girls: Watching the many adventures of Lorelei and Rory Gilmore and the rest of the Stars Hollow gang  is one of my favorite pastimes and since Netflix added Gilmore Girls to its streaming content on October first, I am able to binge watch to my heart’s content. No more searching for the right DVD or trying to remember which episode I left off on! Between this and season three of Hart of Dixie, I’m going to be in Netflix heaven!

2. Karuna Hydrating Treatment Masks: I had one of these show up in my monthly Birchbox subscription last year and I immediately became obsessed. They make my skin feel absolutely glorious! I try to do one at least a couple of times per month and lately I’ve been trying several of Karuna’s other masks and have yet to be disappointed.

3. Peyton Manning Ornament: Every year I say that I’m not going to buy a bunch of Christmas ornaments that I don’t need and then Hallmark goes and comes out with a whole bunch of ornaments that I totally need want. This year their pièce de résistance is a Peyton Manning ornament! What Christmas tree would be complete without a miniature Peyton Manning, especially if said Peyton Manning is in a Broncos jersey? It is too cute!

4. The Judge: David and I were invited to an advanced screening of this film a while back and I was blown away by the actors’ performances. Seriously, everyone was incredible. Who doesn’t love Robert Downey Jr. and Robert Duvall? The movie was not what I expected – it was slower paced than the preview makes it seem – but it was great, although sometimes hard to watch. Vincent D’Onofrio might just be the most underrated actor of all-time and his performance in this is exquisite (really, the entire cast is awesome).

5. King Arthur Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Mix: I have tried every gluten-free cake mix I can get my hands on but none of them were up to my standards. Until now. King Arthur Flour has formulated what is hands down the best gluten-free cake mix on the market. It is rich, moist and beyond delicious. I am a big “from scratch” girl, but I am hard pressed to find a gluten-free cake recipe that I like better than this one. It’s also super easy to make so I can’t keep them around the house or I’ll get myself into trouble. Seriously, this is better than any non gluten-free cake mix you’ll find in the super-market aisle.

This time of year, the Santa Ana winds in LA can b This time of year, the Santa Ana winds in LA can be brutal on your skin. Nothing highlights fine lines and wrinkles quite like dry skin, so I was intrigued when @influenster sent me this @ponds Rejuveness Advanced Hydrating Night Cream to test and review. Pond’s has over 150 years experience in the skincare game and I had so many friends growing up that had mothers and grandmothers who were completely devoted to the brand. The cream is ultra hydrating and has a delightfully fresh scent and I’ve found it to be nice addition to my skin care routine during these dry autumn months. Plus, with an $8 price tag, it won’t break the bank.

Friday favorites: This past Sunday I was watching Friday favorites: This past Sunday I was watching church with my family, and our pastor recommend that everyone read Be the Bridge by @latashamorrison . I am so glad that he did. I finished it this morning, and it was such a timely and eye opening read. I highly recommend it.
