Sunday Morning Coffee Talk-What’s New

Alright friends, September is upon us and for some of you, it means FALL! Which always makes me think of Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks in You’ve got Mail and how during the fall he wanted to send her a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils.

    I love Fall with the wildflowers still in bloom and the leaves changing color. It is such beautiful and peaceful time of the year.

    As a high school teacher and executive board member of my local union, fall is here with a bang! School’s been in for about a week, and so far my classes/students are awesome. Really enjoying the atmosphere of each class. We’ve just voted on a new contract with the district as well, so I’m looking at a raise too! My husband’s 30th birthday is this month, so more money will come in handy, haha!

      You know what a raise might mean?!?! More boxes and cat nip!!! Hallelujah unions!!

      Yay and congrats Erin! School starts for us Monday, but yesterday we had a new student orientation, so that was kinda fun.

    I recently fell in love with Flicker Box. It’s a candle subscription that sends you 3-5 candles from small companies. Last months theme was Peace & Love. Another box I fell in love with is Lavish Bath box , they send you 5-7 bath and body and shower products from small companies. Last months theme was Carnival and it came with cute themed soap, bath bombs and such. Also this week I preordered a Hocus Pocus Fortune Cookie Soap Halloween box!
    I would love to hear of any other bath, candle or small business subscriptions I might not know about!

      Check out our Out Of The Box Sampler reviews (and their FB page for preview spoilers in the beginning of the month)!

      That sounds awesome!! I have really been wanting to try a fortune cookie box. I am pretty much in love right now with Pure Box. It is handmade green beauty stuff. They have such good curation!

      I just started getting the Bpure box from Beautiflypure (weird name, I know). They send a bar soap and bath goodies every month. Everything’s vegan and 100% natural. I’m digging it!

      July had a foot soak and body butter (among other things), and June had lip balm and bath tea (also among other things). They have incredible scents too…I’ve been using their peach lavender and pear vanilla wax melts. Yum!

    Let’s see. In the what’s new category, my little one is starting day care next month. He’s only been cared for by family so far, so I’m nervous. Not to mention the serious mom guilt.

    I have a love/hate relationship with fall. I love fall fashion: rich hues, layers, leather, ability to wear a variety of shoes. But fall is also the foreboding of winter, and I get angry just thinking about it.

    I really want a new fashion box to come out. And a good kids box.

      awww that is so hard momma! You know he will be sad the first few days and then will start asking to go and not even turning to wave. I think we need a good fashion box too. Not gonna lie, I am over Golden tote.

    Pipsqueak starts Kindergarden *sniff* I used to dread the back to school pictures on FB but now I have drunk the koolaid.

    I like Autumn. Not a fan of the heat but August and September bring me the best hair days.

    I have not found a new box but I am thinking of boxes to sub long-term for next year. Provided they provide holiday codes during the holidays of course!

    Fall is my favorite season! I have been away from subscription boxes for a bit but I just subscribed to one called The Hive Box! I haven’t gotten one yet but the reviews make me excited to try it!

    I agree with Artemis – love fall fashion: sweaters, boots, jackets! But hate the thought of winter… grrr!

    I’m really enjoying Pearlesque.
