I’m up next for sharing 5 of my favorite things lately. I’ve recently found a few items that I love and am using frequently, and I am super excited to share them here!
1/ Drill Brush Set– Seriously, this is amazing. I hate cleaning my bathtub. It takes forever, so it’s gross and the kids are constantly using their bath crayons everywhere and they are nearly impossible to get off the tub surface. My husband recently ordered this set and this means that he is cleaning the bathtub on the regular. So of course this has landed on my favorites list. I highly recommend this set and encouraging your partner to clean with power tools. Honestly, I’ve tried it a couple of times now too and it is so much more fun to use a power tool to clean.
2/ Converse Chuck Taylors – I love, love, love these shoes. They are stylish, comfortable, and the go with almost everything. I resisted buying some for a really long time, but about 8 months ago, I bought a pair and I seriously wear them almost every day. The best part? I can run them through the washing machine when they get dirty. (Bonus – you can also get cash back via Ebates!)
3/ Guild & Pepper shampoo and conditioner: Ok, so I must admit I am usually an Herbal Essences or something similar kind of girl. I don’t typically spend more than $6 on a bottle of shampoo. But this was the brand that I used at a hotel I stayed in recently, and it is amazing! It smells wonderful, and it left my hair so soft and workable. I usually feel like my hair is limp and sad by the end of the day, but with using this brand, my hair stays shiny and happy all day. I talked Mr. Cereal into buying this set on amazon, and he loves it too!
4/ Cat & Jack clothing – I love Target, who doesn’t? But I especially love the Cat & Jack clothing. This stuff is super cute and really durable. I love taking both kids to Target with me and letting them pick out their clothes because everything is affordable and fun!
5/ Tate’s Bakery Gluten Free Cookies– I am mostly gluten free due to the low fodmap diet plan I follow. Mr. Cereal first picked these up because of the name (Little Bug’s name is Tate), and I was shocked at how delicious they are. I have tried every variety except for the oatmeal raising (because ew!), and they are all soooo good! I highly recommend to any GF mamas and kids, but also to anyone else too because they are seriously that yummy. (Some flavors also available from Amazon!)
I love hearing about products that other people use and are happy with. Can’t wait to hear what you think about my favorites, and please share your Friday favorites in the comments or on the boards!

I love my white chucks! I wear them as often as I can. I didn’t realize you can wash them in the washing machine! I’ll have to try that out, they’re pretty dirty.
That drill brush set is intriguing! I hate cleaning so anything to make chores easier is a plus!
Cat and Jack fan here, too!

@Boopers: You can also use a mix of dawn dish soap and vinegar and a magic eraser to clean your converse.

My husband would love be the drill brush. And I love Cat and Jack clothes. I especially love that they tend to have science/dinosaurs/rocket ship type things on the girls side and “be nice/kind” or smile type things on the boys side.

They had no show converse socks on the Today show yesterday. I’m thinking about trying some out.

They’ve been selling big boxes of Tate’s at Costco lately (thought maybe not the gluten free). Yesterday I had to talk myself away from them, since I indulged on the last couple of Costco trips.
