❤️🔥 THE MEGA EDIT ❤️🔥
February
New year. New obsessions… from budgeting to baking to bedding, heres what’s currently topping my most-coveted list.
If anyone so much as whispered the word “budget” around me, I’d do a denial dance straight out of the room. Enter: Rocket Money — the hero of my financial glow-up.
This app cancels subscriptions, renegotiates bills, categorizes monthly spending into a perky pie chart, monitors your credit score, and more! I’ve gone from head-in-the-sand avoidance to actual excitement when it chirps wins like “It’s payday!” or “Refund detected!”
It’s become my favorite coffee companion each morning. #MEGAmoneymanager
Macy’s Hotel Collection Bedding
At Christmas dinner, my know-it-all brother casually announced that one of his clients — the CEO of Macy’s, no less — swore their Hotel Collection Bedding outperformed high-end home store versions.
Meanwhile, I’d been sleeping under a clumpy comforter with sheets that were… aggressively off-white. It was time.
I restyled the sack with a white cotton percale duvet and an alternative goose down comforter, and I’ve been swimming in a cool, crisp wonderland ever since.
Pro Tip: Purchase through the Macy’s app — the discounts run even deeper.

Stellar Eats Grain-Free Cookie Mix
I’m grain-free. Gluten-free. Dairy-free.
And, as a result — often dessert-free.
Most “clean” cookie recipes leave me coated in coconut sugar and dripping in disappointment. Enter Stellar Eats Grain-Free Cookie Mix (all the frees) — it has officially put me back in the sweets game.
It’s dummy-proof: Just one egg plus butter or oil. And it’s kid-proof, too — the roaming teen boy gang that regularly breaks into my kitchen inhaled ‘em.
Paleo party at my house.
There is no greater workhorse in my wardrobe than upscale denim. And no — I can never have too many pairs. And no — last year’s favorites are not necessarily this year’s go-tos. So yes, Mom, the quest is ongoing.
My latest slay in the jean jungle: ASKK NY’s Bond Jeans, in that just-right dark wash. Mid-rise. Flare. You’re welcome.
Now someone get me a cosmo and a date.
For over a decade, I was a Tracy Anderson Method hot-studio sistah — until getting across town for class started to feel like a workout before the workout. I was loyal to the celeb trainer’s Intermediate Muscular Design, but menopause left me less psyched to roll around on the floor and more focused on strength training.
So I invested — monthly installment plan for the win — in MYMODE. Streaming at home is saving me serious coin, and the moves feels kinder, gentler… but never easy. The results speak for themselves (meow).
If it’s good enough for Gwyneth, it’s good enough for me.
Gray spray? Genius. I know this stuff isn’t exactly new but it’s my first time trying it after my colorist recommended this drugstore version for between appointments. Ever since my aging side part went undercover, it’s been strutting its stuff — and your secret is safe until the next wash. I believe in magic.

Hi Meg! Thanks for the funny read. Do the jeans come in TALL sizes? I would like extra length (but not extra rise)
