My birthday is coming up! So I’ve been going through my wishlist to see what to ask for. I obviously have a lot of time on my hands to find cool Amazon products, but these are all things I truly want.
Are most of these things necessities? No. But I’ll take whatever joy I can get. From finding the perfect shade of pink lip balm to a pillow for all you Corgi lovers and the perfect slice pool float, here are some things that I really need to get ASAP.
The ULTIMATE Cereal Spoon
