Some recent home upgrades I’m actually loving (and use daily)
|
Here’s some practical stuff I've tested in real life and have loved using! Large stone dish drying matOk, I have to start with this one because it's my favorite new thing in our home right now. I was so over dish towels - especially after one too many moldy ones - and those synthetic pads are gross too. And traditional drying racks always end up slimy. This stone mat has been used heavily for five months and I'm still loving it! It looks sleek on the counter, drains fast, dries fast, and zero mold situations. Just make sure to place the little legs strategically to avoid warping - ours is doing fine, but seems like a lot of people in the reviews complained about this. I also got a new dish rack to place on top so we can dry dishes, but ditched the drainage tray that came with it. I like that it has little hooks for cups - we use this to dry our Stasher Bags! Silicone freezer trays for soupsI've been wanting a better single-portion freezing option for soups and stews for a while, and now with postpartum food prep on my mind, these seemed like a good addition. They pop out cleanly, stack easily, and make meal prep manageable. ATTITUDE body lotionMy skin isn't dry and itchy anymore (finally!), but I still do a daily lotion - and this one has been awesome. It smells incredible and it's super clean, EWG verified and everything. Obviously I went with pear & amber because… amber is the gold of Lithuania, sooo I really had no choice. Cork plant coasters & saucersAfter damaging way too many windowsills, I finally committed to getting coasters under all our plants. This set has a good size variety, which is great when you have a mix of pots. Collapsible cooler bagThis was a great on our Costa Rica trip - we were Airbnb hopping the whole time and had food to haul from place to place. It packs down small enough to throw in a suitcase, but it's actually good quality, not flimsy. Now it’ll be helpful for road trips and picnics… and future trips! Plastic Pyrex replacement lidsSo many of our Pyrex lids had cracked or warped over time - this replacement pack was great without having to rebuy the glass containers. Let me know if you try any of these out! In health, -Daina Forward this email to anyone who would benefit 💌 Forwarded this email? Sign up HERE to get future emails directly to your inbox.

I had a client ask me what the difference is between probiotics and prebiotics - so let’s talk about it! Many people are popping a probiotic pill every day , and not really thinking much more about it. But here's what's actually happening inside your gut - your probiotic doesn't have much to work with if you're not feeding it. That's where PREbiotics come in. And nope, a trendy soda with "prebiotic fiber" on the label doesn't count (keep reading to learn more…). What's the difference,...
Ok, so a reel popped up on my feed recently making fun of people who still use wired earphones. And surprise surprise…. I'm one of those people Here's why - I'm not here to tell you to throw your AirPods in the trash. But I AM here to tell you that the "they're totally safe" crowd is way more confident than the science actually allows them to be right now. What AirPods actually emit Like all wireless devices, AirPods emit radiofrequency (RF) radiation - the same category as Wi-Fi routers and...
Last weekend, we flew to Boise for a family wedding - so fun! Being 7.5 months pregnant at a wedding is a whole new experience and I’m into it. We danced, we celebrated, we went to a bar (!), and I felt AMAZING the next morning. We stayed at an Airbnb, and were on a mission from the second we walked in… It was one of those places where the "fresh" smell of synthetic fragrances was intense. We went room to room hunting down every wall plug-in and reed diffuser we could find, placed them all...
