5 things that bring me joy this week

It feels like I just wrote last week’s post and it’s time for the new one. In case you’re new around here (welcome!), this is a weekly post I write where I highlight 5 things, big or small, that bring me joy that week. Basically, expect anything on this list, because my intention is to emphasize how the little things in life make the big picture, hence, it’s important to bring them to light. We so often just ignore them!

With this introduction, here are the 5 things that bring me joy this week:

Cleaning all my makeup brushes and sponges (+ the brow brush in this set is indispensable to me!)! I rarely wear makeup these days, but I’m still making it a priority to clean them frequently. I have oily skin, so it is even more important to wash my brushes regularly to avoid breakouts and extend their life. I use this brush shampoo to achieve that — try it to see why 48K+ love it too. Cleaning my makeup brushes somehow makes me feel accomplished, haha, and that brings me joy!
The blue and white accent and kitchen pieces in our home (find more here and here). There’s a reason they’re multiplying — this color combo makes me happy, and my love for it only keeps growing.
Hummus! It’s one of our favorites for snacks and dinners and since it’s so easy, I make it at home frequently. Just made a fresh, yummy batch yesterday, and we greatly enjoyed it!
Blueberries! They’ve been on sale a lot here recently, and we’ve been stocking up! Between baking, adding them to smoothies, or simply enjoying them fresh, blueberries have been bringing us lots of joy this week!
Scarves! Right now, I’m obsessed with scarves, particularly silk and like-silk ones. I’ve gone a bit overboard and purchased quite a few lately, but they bring me so much joy! I guess I’ll be collecting blue and white items, and scarves, though this obsession is not mutually exclusive as I already have quite a few blue and white scarves… 😁
