Favorite Things: 2018 (Kitchen Supplies, Skincare, Recipes, and more!)

December 31, 2018 by Chelsea Kram – XO&So: Vegetarian Comfort Food Leave a Comment

I’m sitting here writing this on the night of December 29th, and it already feels like Christmas Day was three months ago. Granted, my Christmas came to an abrupt halt on the 26th when a tube behind my fridge cracked and my basement flooded, ceiling collapsed, etc. Yikes. But hey, could always be way worse! With all of that, there’s lots to look forward to that’s keeping me busy...including sharing my favorite things with you!

I’m realllllly excited for where 2019 will take me, especially with XO&So! I got a REAAAAAL camera and a KitchenAid, as well as a lot of photo-ready kitchen accessories to take my photography and cooking to the next level!

November 2017 Favorites

December 4, 2017 by Chelsea Kram – XO&So: Vegetarian Comfort Food Leave a Comment

It's December 1 and about +6 outside so it certainly doesn't feel like a classic Canadian winter. "They" say this winter is supposed to be colder and snowier than last, but so far it's hard to see that happening (knock on wood!). Anywhoozles, here's a recap of my favorites from the past month.

Songs:

  • One Day at a Time & Baby, You Make Me Crazy - Sam Smith (the whole album is great!)
  • 9th of october - Tove Lo
  • Get Over Yourself - Kelsea Ballerini
  • Lemon - N.E.R.D, Rihanna
  • Homemade Dynamite - Lorde, Post Malone, Khalid, SZA
  • Beautiful Trauma - Pink
  • reputation - Taylor Swift, yep, the whole album. I didn't want to like it but I've been listening to it non-stop so it would be wrong not to include it
  • Havana - Camila Cabello
  • Bones - Alexandra Savior

Shows:

  • Lady Dynamite Season 2 (it's a kooooooky show, but different than anything else on TV and really enjoyable and easy to watch. If you're into Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt I think you'll like this too)
  • Marvel's The Punisher (it's violent as hell and super graphic but I am really enjoying it so far. I find it gets better the further in you get)
  • I Love you America (Sarah Silverman's new talk-show. I know she's a love her or hate her type comic, but I love her and I find this show really refreshing and important)
  • SMILF

Beauty:

  • Annabelle Eyebrow Pencil $6.99 - this has been a favorite for a few years and it's such a steal! It stays on really well and holds your brows in place perfectly.
  • French Formula 3-in-1 Texturizing Dry Shampoo - another steal, also only around $7 and works like my bumble and bumble texturizing spray which is about 5 times the cost!
  • Josie Maran Argan Oil - an oldie but a goodie, I always come back to this because it works like nothing else on my dry skin!
  • feel pumpkin walnut facial cleanser - SUCH a good cleanser/exfoliator

Books:

Hunger - Roxane Gay (I'll probably do a whole post about how powerful this book is later on, but for right now, all I can say is if you're a woman with a body (aka 98% of you)

Movies:

Lady Bird - such a heartwarming, funny, and relatable movie.

Clothes/Shoes:

Spring Legivia Over-the-Knee Boots $109

Spring Culkin Over-the-Knee Boots $109

I had to get both. They're essentially the exact same boot but one has a heel and the other doesn't. They're SO comfy and they're a cruelty-free "suede" winter boot option.

That about covers it! What were your favorite things this month? Comment down below!
