I'm going to try to do a little feature at the end of each month of some of my favorite things. I believe good things should be shared! But don't blame me if you don't like them.
Solitaire Blitz

I play this on Facebook. I love games and I really try not to let them take up all my time. But this one is hard to resist.
You basically just build piles of cards in sequential order. I don't use a lot of strategy and only have moderate scores, but I don't care. It's fun!
Maybelline Colossal Mascara

When I put this mascara on for the first time, it was like the heavens parted and angels sang! I have used Bare Minerals mascara, Ulta brand mascara, Sephora brand mascara, etc etc etc. And *every* one of them clumps. Until now!!
This macara makes my lashes look great and DOES NOT clump. And it's cheap! Win win win!!!
A Week in Winter by Maeve Binchy

I've been a long time fan of Maeve Binchy, probably since Circle of Friends was made into a movie with a baby-faced Chris O'Donnell. This is Maeve's last novel before her death last year. It was exactly what you would expect of a Maeve Binchy novel, one main character with several secondary characters who all interact and are somehow related.
Even though her writing can be formulaic, I don't care. Sigh. I just loved this one. She will definitely be missed.
Mad Men

My beloved Mad Men is back! Season 6. Love me some Don Draper. We're a few episodes in and this season is not disappointing. Love love love.
White Noise App

White Noise app by TM Soft. My husband and I have lived together for 12 years. I'd say the number of nights that I have been able to sleep through his snoring I could probably count on one hand. Most of the time I end up in the guest room. But this app has been life changing.
We used to sleep with the tv on so my brain could concentrate on a sound other than his snoring. But it was distracting to me, even in my sleep. I tried ear plugs (ha!), sleeping with my head under the pillow, earbuds (ouch), etc. Then I downloaded this app, and plugged my phone into our iHome clock radio next to the bed. Hallelujah!
It is better than anything else I've ever tried. It's not perfect, I do still wake up in the middle of the night most of the time. But that's more to do with me than anything. And I'm able to fall back to sleep pretty quickly. I love it.
