I (Sarah) love Steve Irwin. I’ve always been a big fan, and even though he’s gone, I still enjoy following his family. Robert  Irwin is is 14 year old son… that’s an award-winning photographer AND zoologist.  When I was 14, I was trying to pick between cherry or strawberry lip gloss – that was my claim to fame! 🙂

Anyway, he has some absolutely AMAZING photographs…  I’m just awe-struck and amazed.  I mean, first, they are incredible, but to really realize they were taken by a 14 year old??  WOW!

Scroll through them HERE!

Do you have a famous family that you enjoy following?

90210.  You guys.  BH 90210!!!!  Remember when we talked about the excitement of the show coming back, and how it wouldn’t be a reboot, per say -more of the cast playing themselves, planning a reboot?  I (Jeni) absolutely  LOVE IT!  I hate having to wait all week for the next episode, though.  UGH!

It’s so much fun to watch, and I absolutely love the premise of the show, because I think it’s so unique and creative.  A lot of my friends were confused, because they hadn’t read or heard that it wasn’t a reboot.  So, they were disappointed at first.  Now that they understand, though, they thought ALL of the stuff  going on in the show was real life stuff.  That’s not the case.

If you are like some of my friends, and still  confused on what’s real and what’s fiction, this article should help you out! After you read that, NOW  you can sit back and enjoy the show!!! 🙂

Is it Wednesday yet!?

Who is your favorite actor on 90210?

If these lights were any stinkin’ cuter….  I (Jeni) am seriously loving these Ice Cream LED Lights! You can hang these on the wall – for decor or as a night light.  Or, you can stand them up on a table for a soft, white light. They come in three colors and I want them all now! 🙂

Do you use nightlights in your house?

 Uhhhhh… excuse me (Sarah) while I wipe the drool from my mouth. Dove has a brand new product out for this fall season – White Chocolate Caramel Apple Candy!  And it’s supposed to taste just like caramel apple pie.  These are a Target exclusive and should be out very soon.

What’s your favorite new or seasonal candy?

This Retro Wooden Book Tissue Dispenser is too freaking cool!  I (Sarah) am a big book girl, so anything that has to do with books is right up my  alley.  I love how authentic and adorable this looks.  Plus,  flu season is coming so it might be good to prepare early!

Do you have any book-themed  household items?

Are you a Stephen King, scary movie fan?  If so, you’ll want to check out this awesome list of Stephen King movies coming … and a description of several miniseries, too.  Plus, there are movies in the first stages of development, but they are coming!  Check out the full list HERE!

Are you a horror movie fan?

How cute are these Wonder Woman Earrings?! They are officially licensed, so you know they represent the real thing!  There are more Wonder Woman earrings to browse through HERE, too, but these are my (Jeni)   favorite 🙂

Are you a superhero fan?

Spinach and Broccoli Enchiladas.  Those are three words I (Jeni) never thought I’d hear all together!  This is a much  healthier version of enchiladas – and I’m game to try!  The ingredients are super simple.  Plus, instead of enchilada sauce, you’re using picante sauce, and I love picante!

What’s your favorite healthy recipe?

  1. I’ve got to grab a box of that Dove candy. I’m on team Apple (as opposed to pumpkin) when it comes to all things fall and that candy sounds delicious. I’ve got to have some.

    • Jeni Hawkins Reply

      Seriously – I’m all about pumpkin AND apple!

  2. I need that book tissue dispenser. I love to read, so it’s perfect. And those photographs are amazing. I’ve always like the Irwin family.

  3. Those ice cream lights are super cute, I think I need it for my kitchen

  4. I have to try those enchiladas they are so packed with veggies. I have not seen 90210 yet but I have heard conflicting reports I guess I have to see for myself.

  5. Your memes always crack me up! I particularly like the dog/beer meme! I haven’t watched BH 90210 yet, but I’ve heard a lot of great reviews about it.

  6. Have you seen the finalists in the comedy wildlife photo awards? They are so funny! Sorry the photos just reminded me of that – what a talent the young person has.

    • Jeni Hawkins Reply

      I haven’t seen that! I’ll check it out, though!

  7. I don’t know where I’d put them, but I think I gotta have those ice cream lights!
    I love the Irwins too. Bindi is just all kinds of adorable, and Robert just seems so fun and has a zest for life and nature, just like his dad did. What lovely photos too!

    I’m a sucker for gel pens. I love the carrying case and I would snatch this up in a heartbeat if I didn’t just buy some a few weeks ago. I use gel pens for my adult coloring time. 🙂

  9. That snake photograph kind of freaks me out. Talk about up close and personal. He is quite talented.

  10. I enjoyed watching BH 90210! Was my favorite show once! I will definitely watch it. I am glad that it’s not a reboot!

  11. I enjoyed watching BH 90210 too although it felt a little weird to see them all with fine lines at first. LOL. I don’t think I have a favorite character. I enjoy watching them all.

  12. That gel pen art travel case kit is something I would love to own myself. My kids would both love it also.

  13. Kristen Osborne Reply

    I’m sorry but 96 count… NINETY SIX! COUNT gel pen set!? I’m in love! I can die happy now, IT’S SO PRETTY! I would buy it just to look at it, it’s so aesthetically pleasing 🙂 Thank you for recommending them and I also now have a new favorite addition to my morning reading.

  14. The ice cream LED lights are adorable. I love ice cream and these fit perfectly. The tissue dispenser wooden box is perfect for my uncle. Great suggestions!

  15. I had heard more about Steve Irwin’s daughter than his son. I’m glad he’s so accomplished. I don’t really follow any famous families. Unless you count The Osmonds back waaaay back when. lol I never watched BH90210 – I think I was between generations.

  16. Loved Steve Erwin on the Crocodile Hunter! His son looks and acts so much like him. He must like watching the show too!

  17. I’m heading to check out the tent. We’ve been wanting to get a new one and that’s an amazing deal. That boating meme is hilarious! I can’t wait to show it to hubby!

  18. Oh my gosh! Totally relating to the kids talking about fortnite and talking about the YouTuber talking about fortnite… LOL And I want a pan of those enchiladas ASAP!

  19. I honestly didn’t know they were re-making the 90210 Show — How cool is that? Excited to see most of the cast is there.
