Why Blog?

I'm starting this blog as a sort of outlet for me to tell people about the "little gems" (note catchy blog title uhuuu) I purchase, eat, find, see, hear about, etc in my daily life.  It's these little gems I love telling people about.  They make me happy and it makes me happy when I can tell people about them.  I mean, think about it.  When you are out and find a really great deal on a small trinket, piece of clothing, pair of shoes (I really could go on), how excited are you to run home and tell anyone who will listen?  Hopefully, I'm not the only one that gets super excited about telling someone what great find I got that day.  Or what great dish I ate.  Or what great drink I tried.  Or what great deal I stumbled across.  Sharing it with someone else allows them to get in on the excitement.  Maybe they want to get one too.  Maybe they want to try it too.  Maybe they want to do it too.

I honestly try to go out and find little gems every day.  I would be lying if I said I didn't look forward to a lunch break almost every day at work so I can walk over to the Target across the street and get something in the dollar section.  That section is AWESOME, and you know it.  Just a few days ago I go myself a nice hot pink binder for $1.  Oh, and then I picked up a hot pink storage container for $2.50.  God, I couldn't wait to get home to organize them.  It was great.  It's a sort of Retail Therapy thing I've noticed...stressed from work, from a long day, from life...a little Retail Therapy can go a looooong way.  

To prove to you even more how much I love little finds...My boyfriend (Ben, who I will probs mention lots throughout my posts) got me a Target gift card as part of my birthday present.  He put a note on it that said something to the extent of "for you to use on your Target breaks."  I'm not kidding.  Oh, and the day the Target became a grocery store...it was the best day of my life.  Not only could I buy little trinkets...but I could get little snacks too.  Oh, and there's a mall just a few hundred yards away.  Another great place to stop by. 

Hopefully I've grabbed your attention--enough to get you to follow me.  Here's the deal: Eventually, I'd like this blog to be a place for people to tell me about the "little gems" they've come across and want to share.  The more things we hear about, the more things we are going to inspire others to do.  It's these little gems that make us happy, so the more gems the merrier.

Think of it this way...I love little gems.  You love little gems.  We love sharing little gems.  So let's share it with everyone :).

Love,
Hannah
