First Friday Favourites. . .

So I have decided that every second Friday I would do my (Friday Faves) basically three things that make my life so much easier… starting this week  🙂

 
This week’s faves:

 

1.       Garnier BB cream

          Where have you been all my life? In Asia I’m guessing as I believe that  is where the blemish balm (BB) concept originates. I don’t wear make-up usually but with pregnancy I have needed something to make me look less drab and blotchy and I must say, LOVE IT!!! It’s supposedly a miracle cream with SPF and healing properties, but to me it’s really just a super tinted moisturizer that is not unnecessarily thick like many tend to be and actually leaves your skin feeling soft and not heavily made up at all! And you look just a little more laminated. Love this stuff
CON: It comes in three shades, light, medium and dark and not everyone is one of those

2.      Cadbury Highlights Hot chocolate

          I don’t know what voodoo magic makes something this deliciously yummy only 50 calories, but I approve, oh boy how I do approve. It’s rich and creamy and thick-YUM. Although you can have it without milk I add just a dash of skim, upping my calories to what? 60? SO WORTH IT! In love with it’s yumminess
CON: It’s summer now, they should come up with a cold version like nesquick, but this taste and calories

3.        Sistema Lunch Cube

          Because it’s healthier and cheaper to take lunch to work, Rob and I have been trying it out, which means random containers and annoyances, but this lunch cube seriously cuts out that problem! On one side it has two compartments and then there’s a flatter (perfect for sandwiches) side. It seals pretty tightly but when foods are slightly over powering in flavor I do still use foil and plastic baggies…just in case. Today mine has a roti in the sandwich compartment, a delicious mince and chickpea curry (Rob made last night) in one of the little deep compartments  and a little baggie with highlights hot chocolate in the other. It makes lugging your food around much easier
CON: Could be a little bigger, would love to fit my yogurt in there too
