Good morning, loves!  Happy Monday! If you’re a fan of The Office, like me (Jeni), you probably already know this news.  However, if you don’t know it – you’ll be pretty excited! Did you know there’s a The Office PODCAST!?  YES!  Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey (Pam and Angela from the show) are besties, and started a podcast, going over each episode.  I listen to it on Earwolf.

It’s really fun – and easy to catch up if you are just hearing this news, because there are just 3 episodes so far. I’m such a huge fan of the show, so hearing these little behind the scenes tidbits about every single episode is really exciting for me 🙂

What podcasts do you listen to?

So, I (Sarah) guess this morning we both have TV shows on our minds! 🙂  I want to tell you guys about a fun reboot coming – for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air!!  This news might sound familiar, because Will Smith talked about a reboot in 2015, but nothing happened. 

So now, Will Smith is actually developing the spinoff under his own production company. That gives me hope that this time it will actually end up happening!  I really want to see a spinoff… and think that with Will Smith, it will be absolutely amazing!  It HAS to feature Carlton, though!!  🙂

These Mr. Sketch Scented Movie Night Markers are so much fun – and only $6.42!  Scents include: Blue Slushy, Chocolate Mint, Hard Candy, Root Beer, Buttered Popcorn & Nacho Cheese! One reviewer even said, “I want to be buried with these!” 🙂

OMG these are AMAZING!  Gratitude Finder Journals – undated, 52 weeks, prompting you to find the BEST in every week! These are too cool, and a great way to stay positive!  There are 7 styles, and each comes with nearly 500 stickers.  The best part – they are only $14.95 + free shipping!

This is weird and hilarious and totally crazy…. but this company called MSCHF, turned a pair of Nike Air Max 97s into Jesus-inspired shoes.  Yes, Jesus. They feature a gold crucifix, verse from the bible, and two drops of red ink that represent the blood of Christ. Plus, the soles are filled with holy water from the Jordan River. Oh, and they are $3.000.  Read more HERE.

What’s the most you’ve ever paid for shoes?

Now, here is some footwear that might feel a little less intimidating (and is definitely more comfy and affordable!) – holiday slippers!!  I (Jeni) have been looking for some awesome new holiday slippers, and these two are my favorites!  Get them in “elk” or “penguin”-  and keep your tootsies warm and cozy!

Do you wear slippers, socks or barefoot more often?

If you super duper love your cat or dog – get a pet cookie cutter made from their sweet little face!  Send this Etsy shop a photo of your pet, and they create a 3D cookie cutter for you! They are about $27 + shipping  -so pricey, however, you get a preview, AND it would be a very personalized gift idea for the holidays!

What personalized gifts do you like giving or receiving?
So, Aldi is an awesome grocery store. I (Sarah) LOVE it. And this year, they are bringing back a Thanksgiving favorite!  Starting November 6th, you can score their Thanksgiving-themed raviolis in 2 flavors: Priano’s turkey cranberry ravioli and bourbon sweet potato ravioli.  YUM!!!

What Thanksgiving flavors are your favorites?

Avocado earrings.  I (Jeni) am a huge avocado eater, and I also love little earrings!  These are my favorite four options for avocado earrings, but I can’t decide!  I might have to just get them all 🙂  It’s totally normal to wear your favorite fruits and veggies… right? 

What is your favorite fruit or veggie?

This French Onion Soup Casserole looks amazing, doesn’t it? It’s a fun way to eat one of my (Sarah) favorite soups. It’s full of fun and fresh herbs, silky cheese, and of course, Vidalia onions!

What’s your favorite type of soup?

    Coffee monster is so funny looking –I totally could never picture Cookie Monster any other color! As an adult, I need socks on my feet now! Back then, I hated them!

  10. I don’t know how I feel about reboots of shows. They were good back then, so why reboot them, most of the times with different actors? That French onion soup casserole sounds AMAZING! I am snagging that!

  11. My kids love Mr. Sketch items, but what are the movie night markers supposed to do? Do you still color with them?

  12. You always find the most interesting things. I see a million recipes a day that don’t really do much for me but now I have to try the French onion soup casserole and buy the animal cookie cutters! lol

  13. I loved those scented markers when I was a kid. Those were the best. Also, I want those shoes! They look great.

  14. An Office podcast you say? I am going to have to hurry up and catch up. That’s one of my all time favorite shows. And I am definitely going to need those pet cookie cutters. I can imagine how cute my boxers would be as a cookie 🙂

  15. Omg I am totally gonna go listen to that podcast now I love the office. Thanks fro sharing this so much great info.

  16. My niece and daughter are huge fans of the Office and they are going to love this podcast. I’m pretty sure that I need cookie cutters of my dogs’ faces, even though I rarely use cookie cutters.

  17. Holiday slippers are so awesome! I know that everyone in my house would be happy to receive one for Christmas gift!

  18. I’m super excited about the possibility of a Fresh Prince of BelAir reboot. I loved that show and I love Will Smith! Anything he does will be great.

  19. Talk about cute! Love that they have a podcast and since they’re currently 3 episodes, it’s not tough to catch up. Nice markers! Would be a great gift for the kids this season. Also loving that there will be a Fresh Prince of Bel Air spinoff!

  20. Those holiday slippers are adorable most especially the penguin. I always wear slippers in the house, but I have a few pairs already.

  21. I think I would have to pass on the bourbon flavored ravioli. I am not a fan of bourbon in general.

  22. Such cute goodies and those avocado earring would be the perfect stocking stuffer for my guacamole loving sister
