My Favorite Things

I have had THIS song stuck in my head for DAYS!!!  
  But, it has been for a good reason.  A few of my bloggy friends and I have gotten together to bring you an AMAZING blog hop and giveaway titled "A Few of Our Favorite Things."  
Here are a few of MY Favorite Things (you know, besides girls in white dresses and blue satin sashes):



 One of my absolute favorite things is my crock pot.  It may sound weird, but it is a life saver!  I used to think the only thing to put in a crock pot was a big hunk of beef that ended up getting dried out.  That is what always happened when my mom used hers.  Man, have these things come a long way!  I use slow cookers SO much, in fact, that my father-in-law came up with the idea of getting me this one ON HIS OWN last year.  Yeah, a guy shopping by himself and he came up with this.  It could NOT have been more perfect!

This slow cooker not only cooks well (even temperature, things don't burn, etc.), but it also has the option that allows food to be stirred while you are not at home!  How cool is that!?




Another one of my favorite things is my Canon Rebel camera.  I didn't really think I could like a camera so much!  I figured my iPhone camera would be fine.  Then, I started using this camera.  There is NO question that it produces outstanding pictures.  I am obsessed with it now!  


We ended up splurging for the whole package that came with another lens, a carrier, and some other goodies.  We were not disappointed.  It takes the best pictures and videos!  While there are a lot of options that you CAN use, you don't have to use them.  The automatic option works great too.  




Another one of my favorites is t-shirts.  I am the most comfortable in t-shirts and jeans!  But, I am kind of particular about my t-shirts.  They have to be soft and comfortable and most importantly, durable!  And, if they say something funny or witty, it is icing on the cake!  Well, I have found my icing!  TeacherShirts has been my answer!  




I was ecstatic when I learned that they were going to donate a t-shirt for me to giveaway for this blog hop!  I am giving away a FREE screen printed t-shirt of your choice, so make sure to enter the giveaway below.
