A Good Buy and a Cute Guy

The Good Buy 

I found a great Advent Calendar for myself and others who love to light a candle each evening...

The best news is that this Candle Advent Calendar is at Kohl's which means you know you can add coupons and Kohl's Cash and get it for even cheaper than the listed price :)  The idea of lighting a new scented candle each night during Advent is the definition of comfy-cozy for me.  It would also be a great reminder to let it burn while praying a family rosary or watching an episode of The Chosen during the season of preparation.  And hey, if candles aren't your thing, there are lots of other Advent Calendars to choose from on this perfectly timed Advent.

The Cute (Little) Guy

We watched Despicable Me 4 at home this weekend and while setting it up on the TV, Declan saw the popcornmeter rating and ran into the kitchen where I was cleaning up to say:

"Mom!  There's this little popcorn thingie that they have on movies, and it goes from 0-100 and the higher the number lets you know if the movie is a good one to make popcorn for.  Despicable Me 4 has a popcorn rating of 87% so WE JUST HAVE TO MAKE POPCORN!"

So we did, of course.

  1. I love Declan's popcorn rating translation. That is a cute advent calendar. Kohls, you say? Hmm.

    1. Ooooh that sounds like a fun one if you love jam! Toast for breakfast in Advent!

    2. There's apparently a bunch of fun flavors that aren't run of the mill. But little tiny jars of jam seem like they'd be cute and bonus, they're all good until June so really it's the Advent calendar that will likely last for months.

  3. I love the popcorn-o-meter theory. I hope the movie was good; I think I've only seen the first two. I think the candle advent is a sweet idea.
