Weekend Reads | 1.17

Happy Friday friends.  It’s looking like another gloomy weekend in Portland, so time to cuddle under a blanket, light some candles and do some reading.

Since we’ve been doing the Whole 30 this month, we’ve been having pretty chill weekends.  This one will probably be the same.  I finally caved and watched a few episodes of Marie Kondo’s show on Netflix, so you can find me carefully folding my t-shirts all weekend long.

So here’s a few ways to make your bed feel extra cozy this winter…ala Winston Maynard above

It really does work wonders…

Buy of the week:  a $119 Amazon winter coat that has gotten so popular that NY Mag has even done a story about it…It just arrived, so I’ll let you know my thoughts soon…
