Christmas is right around the corner and that means it’s also that time of the year when we bang our heads against the wall trying to think of what to get for that special someone in our life.

Last week I posted gift ideas for a traveler… but what if your loved one is a blogger?

Whether they blog for income, for fun, or a little of both, I’m sure you’re wishing for some ideas on resources that would make their lives easier!

Well, I’ve come up with some thoughtful but practical gift ideas for the blogger in your life. They range from small stocking stuffers to pretty hefty gifts so I’m sure you’ll find that there’s a gift for any budget.

Christmas is right around the corner and that means it’s also that time of the year when we bang our heads against the wall trying to think of what to get for that special someone in our life.

But what if you’re loved one isn’t into “stuff” and prefers traveling instead?

Well, I’ve come up with 9 thoughtful but practical gift ideas for the traveler in your life. They range from stocking stuffers to pretty hefty gifts so I’m sure you’ll find that there’s a gift for any budget.

And if you read all the way to the bottom you’ll even get a bonus 10th gift idea!

Hi ladies! Recently I shared the list of skincare products and routine I’ve been using. They had been making my skin feel so soft and moisturized I was thrilled to be able to share my great finds with my readers!

Unfortunately, shortly after I shared my blog post on the products and my skincare routine, I started to have some serious breakouts.

I’m not sure why, but I’ve always had a strange fascination with the FBI and procedural dramas.

So when it comes to binge-watching Netflix, you know I absolutely can’t get enough of my FBI TV shows!

I’ve rounded up my top favorite FBI TV shows for you all since the chilly winter months will inevitably have us all curling up under blankets and in front of TVs 😉

For many people, having a cup of coffee to start their morning and then some more through the course of the day is just part of their normal routine.

Over 60% of Americans claim to start their day with a cup of coffee.

And while coffee does contain antioxidants and can even reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, dieticians believe that many people don’t recognize the negative effects that drinking too much coffee can have on the body.

This is especially the case when that plain cup of coffee is replaced by sugary lattés or blended drinks.

Many Starbucks drinks are loaded with extra sugar and calories. These can cause hormone imbalances in the body, not to mention their contribution to the obesity epidemic.

We all know the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino was made for Instagram fame and fanfare, and the rest of their secret menu is just as bad.

So without further ado, here’s day 2!

Hi, my lovelies! Today’s the first day of my 4 days in San Diego. Even though I haven’t been able to keep up with my Blogtober Challenge, I’m still going to try and give you as much of the content I promised as possible. After all, 25 or even 20 days of content completed are better than none, right?

For the rest of the Blogtober series, be sure to check out my tagged posts here.

And as promised, here’s the first day trip to San Diego of four parts in the blog series!

As many of you know, I’ve been sharing my plans with you all for going to San Diego later this month to see my brother off on deployment.

This is the second half of my planning process!

Once I search hotels and food options, my next stop in making travel plans is to check out nearby activities. So in this case… all the things to do in San Diego.

In honor of my parents flying in from out of town to visit this weekend, today’s post is about places to eat in Lake Arrowhead.

With great breakfast, lunch, and dinner options, I’m sure Lake Arrowhead will offer you some memorable experiences both in terms of culinary options as well as atmosphere.
