5 non-book things I've been loving

Sometimes I still want to share non-book things like I did back when I was a travel/lifestyle blogger a million years ago. We recently did a big road trip but I'm not quite ready for those posts yet so in the meantime, here ya go!

🚗 20 Questions... Such a fun and simple way to pass time on a road trip! If you don't know/remember this game- you think of something, anything, and the other people ask you 20 yes-or-no questions to narrow it down. (Is it alive? Is it blue? Is there one inside this car with us? Can you buy it in a gas station? Etc) 

👣 Feelgoodz slippers... The health nut in me has been wanting some slippers that were better than polyester. You can certainly find even better ones for a zillion dollars but I actually got these at the Albuquerque Whole Foods. I saw them in two other states' Whole Foods, too. You'll be able to find me in this uniform all winter- leggings, hoodie, Feelgoodz slippers.

🎧 Lamplighters podcast... The kids already liked Bedtime History and Earth Ranger but we added this virtue-focused children's podcast to our rotation on the drive and it was such a hit!

📬 Postcards for language arts... I believe that humans knew how to learn new things long before textbooks came along so I see a lot of things as educational that I didn't in the past. Filling out post cards is one of them and it's been such a hit for my kiddos this week!

🍲 V8... I still ate really healthy on our road trip but that often meant fruits, carrots, simple salads, etc. I was really missing savory tastes so I got a spicy V8 and it was so yummy! Now I'm making my own with the blender on soup mode + a strainer. Spicy, warm v8 soup
