Merry Christmas to me and my dog!

Where has this pillow been all of my life?

How many times have you dreamed about living in a house you’ve read about? We’re sure this is something that book lovers often imagine after enjoying a good novel. If this is you and you additionally love historical context, then you’re going to want to dig deep into your pockets. Henry David Thoreau’s “Yellow House” is on the market. The home sits at 255 Main Street in Concord, Massachusetts.

Have you ever wanted to tell people how you’re feeling before you even see them? We’ve all had those days. The ones where you’d much rather communicate with a series of eye rolls and grunts than by speaking actual words. They tend to always happen before coffee has been dispensed. Well, if you like to make your feelings very clear, but also love designer things, you’re in luck. Thanks to Hypebeast, we now have more details on the Virgil Abloh x IKEA collection.

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and if you haven’t bought something yet, you should probably work on that ASAP. Moms work so hard to make our lives manageable and happy, they deserve everything we can give them. Have you ever got your mom a gift and instantly known she didn’t like it? She’s too nice to say it, but you just knew when you saw her face. Well, if you’ve been stuck on what to get your mom for the big day, you can get an answer now thanks to Reddit.

Not that we ever doubted it for a second, but magic does exist. Harry Potter fans know this to be true, but now we have proof to share with others! Fans of the series can actually spend a night in a replica of Hagrid’s Hut. How magical does that sound? Hagrid is easily one of the most beloved characters in the entire series.

Succulents are very trendy right now. They are easy to care for if you’re not a huge plant aficionado. You only need to water a living succulent every couple of days and it isn’t hard at all. But if remembering to water anything but yourself is tough for you to do, that’s fine. Fake succulents are just as popular as the real ones. They come in many shapes, sizes, styles, and vase. You can buy succulents that look like they’re sprouting from a pineapple!

Going to the zoo is a very popular American past time. Every little kid has gone on a school field trip to the zoo at one point or another. Still, as adults, many of us are fascinated with going to the zoo to see all of the animals. Some people fear that going to the zoo isn’t perpetuating the containment of animals, but that isn’t the case. A vast majority of zoos and aquariums in the U.S. are AZA accredited.

I am buying this for everyone in my life.

“That’s what I do: I drink and I know things.” – Your dog or cat, if they could actually talk. Your pet is probably a bigger fan of “Game of Thrones” than you are, you just don’t know it, since they can’t actually voice their opinions. Obviously, they are rooting for the dragons to win in the end. We figure most cats associate themselves with dragons, after all.

Is your best friend your soulmate, your person, your #1 cheerleader, and everything in between? Of course, they are, as they should be! Best friends are the reason that we get through the tough moments in life. Obviously family and significant others contribute to this, but our BFFs are the people we go to for everything under the sun. If you and your best friend are the textbook definition of obsessed with each other, listen up!

That is if you can hide from your boss while doing so.

Do you enjoy being right? Of course, you do, who doesn’t?

Every GoT fan has spent quite a bit of time debating with their friends about who will rule Westeros.

How much do you love bread? There are so many ways to enjoy bread, whether you’re eating a standard roll before dinner or enjoying a slice of avocado toast. We all have a favorite pizza place because of the dough used there. The same goes for bagels because we all know that some bagel spots reign supreme over others, anyone from New York or New Jersey would argue that to the death.

People often debate whether cats or dogs are better. We don’t have any definitive proof which animal is better, but one might better for you. According to a new study, dog owners are happier than cat owners. Who can be unhappy when their dog gives them kisses? Now, this isn’t to say that cat owners aren’t entirely unhappy, but it would appear that dog owners are happier.

Have your friends ever said to you that are too obsessed with “The Office“? Have they ever said you worship the snow a little too much? If this is a conversation you’ve had many times before, now you can actually show all of your praise for “The Office” in your home. Fans of “The Office” are some of the most loyal and dedicated there are. It is one of the mot binged-watched programs on Netflix, even though it went off their air in 2013.

Who doesn’t love a good deal? Fools, that’s who! If you’re always looking for ways to save money when you’re shopping, you’re not alone. There are so many perks and bonuses that come with having a store card, like extra savings on purchases and gift cards/cash to use for the future. But, everyone who has a Target REDCard also knows that, because you’re saving money by shopping, you also tend to buy more. It is a habit we all must break, but it is just so hard!

It is that time of year again, Disney fans! The new Disney mugs from the Starbucks “Been There” Series Pin Drop Collection have arrived. Somehow, Disney and Starbucks continue to release new mugs that have us throwing our cash right at them. Do we really need six mugs? Of course, we do! Disney travelers that frequent Walt Disney World in Florida or Disneyland in California know that these mugs are sold in the Starbucks franchises located inside the parks.

Calling all interns! If you’re currently on the market for a stellar internship to add to your resume, you’re going to want to stop and read this. The internship to end all internships is here and it includes first-class travel (and $20/hour). Get your beach towel and sunscreen ready, because if you land this gig, you’re going to be working on your tan real soon. The Points Guy, a travel and points website, is looking to hire a Travel and Rewards intern.

How often are you talking to your cat and they seem to be completely ignoring you? You say every variation of their name, from their actual name to the many nicknames you have for them, but still no luck. You know that your dog understands and responds to their name, but does your cat actually know their own name? You probably thought they did not understand, based on their actions, but cats do know their name.

“Whatever happened to predictability? The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV?…” You know how the rest of the song goes. You can’t help but sing it any time that “Full House” is mentioned because it is one of those theme songs that get stuck in your head. Well, get ready to hum it non-stop, because you’re going to see quite a bit of news about the “Full House” house over the next few weeks. It is going to be on the market!

It is finally spring! Springtime means we can enjoy the beauty of nature, now that those cold and dreary days of winter are behind us. Is there anything more refreshing than looking at flowers blooming after spending weeks on end surrounded by dull gray skies? Of course not! If you’re a fan of cherry blossoms, you’re in luck! You don’t need to drive all the way to Washington D.C. to enjoy the National Cherry Blossom Festival (though it is something incredible to see).

“When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.” – You to your best friend when they try to steal your TV-watching seat on a Sunday night. As every “Game of Thrones” lover knows, there are only two weeks until one of the best TV shows to ever air on HBO returns. After an extremely lengthy hiatus, the series is returning for an eighth and final season.

When it comes to our homes, people tend to have strong opinions. Millennials are abandoning their top sheets. People argue about whether or not you should keep your toaster on the counter or in the cupboards. Just recently, people online were debating about how many towels people need in their homes, and the results were varied. But the newest heated debate on Twitter has to do with what side of the bed you sleep on. Twitter user Steve O’Rourke is at the heart of this online debate.

Now that we’re officially done with winter and spring has sprung, we’re headed toward better weather days. We can expect to see some beautiful flowers blooming shortly. However, before we get flowers, you know how the saying goes, “April showers bring May flowers.” The rain isn’t too awful unless you have dogs. Every dog owner knows that with rain comes mud and with mud comes muddy paws.

Do you have a pretty deep love of your bed? Is it your hardest goodbye each morning and your fondest hello at night? Yeah, same here. We love to sleep and we especially love to be cozy in our beds. If sleeping for two months straight sounds like something right up your alley, then you might want to check out this opportunity from NASA. Yes, NASA, as in the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The Independent reported that NASA is looking to pay volunteers $18,500 for 60 days of work.

Bees are more important to the environment than most people realize. There are a lot more to bees than just their delicious honey. They pollinate 90% of the world’s plants by transferring pollen from one plant or flower to another. The average honeybee can visit up to 2,000 flowers in one day! But sadly, despite how essential honeybees are to our ecosystem, their populations have declined over the last 60 years.

Every cat owner knows that you need to give your pet enrichment opportunities. People often have the misconception that the only thing cats do is sleep. They spend between 12 and 16 hours a day sleeping, so that means there are 12 to 8 hours that they are awake and need entertainment. A bored cat can be a destructive cat. No one wants to come home to find the toilet paper roll empty and strewn across the entire living room.

An important thing to keep in mind when you’re online shopping is this Dwight Schrute quote, “Whenever I’m about to do something, I think, ‘Would an idiot do that?’ And if they would, I do not do that thing.” An idiot would not buy this sequin pillowcase off of Etsy, so obviously Dwight Schrute would do the opposite and buy it. Every fan of “The Office” has their favorite moment with Dwight.

When looking for a roommate, there are a lot of important factors that need to be accounted for. Do they have the means to pay their portion of rent and utilities each month? Are they responsible enough, so you won’t have to hound them over little things every day? Are they clean and respectful? Do they have similar interests to you? If you’re looking for a roommate who is into the same things as you, you’re not the only person.

Seriously, we’re not sure what they are up to over at Amazon’s HQ, but they are really pulling out every stop to change online shopping forever. You can get wine delivered in an hour, thanks to Amazon. You can order all of your groceries and have them delivered the same day. The number of products with over 5,000 good reviews on the website is overwhelming.

Calling all Harry Potter fans: the Hogwarts Express is real. You can actually board the train and go for a ride. Though, we cannot promise you that once you get off the train you’ll be in Hogsmeade. While the train exists, that doesn’t actually mean that Hogwarts is real. Though, we can keep dreaming. How many times have you fantasized about riding the Hogwarts Express?

The countdown has begun for when Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle will welcome their first child together. If we’re being honest, the countdown began the day that it was announced the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were expecting. The new royal baby is due in April 2019, which means we’re getting *very* close.

Wallpaper has been in and out of style over the last few decades. People might think that wallpaper could never be “in” again but it is making a comeback. Goop has decided to put their hat in the ring for their first-ever wallpaper collaboration. Goop has teamed up with DIY textile brand Tempaper to release a non-toxic, floral wallpaper.

Whenever we watch HGTV, especially “House Hunters,” it would seem every homebuyer hates carpet and only wants hardwood floors. We get that carpet can be unsightly, especially if it hasn’t been given TLC over the years. People with allergies to dust and pet dander can also suffer more if they’re living in a home with carpet. All of those allergens tend to get trapped in the carpet and release at the worst time for allergy sufferers.

Have you ever worked from home? It is pretty convenient if your job is set up to allow you to fully function from the comfort of your own living room or home office. You can even work from your bed if you’re feeling particularly cozy that day. For those who think working from home is just hanging out in your pajamas and occasionally checking your laptop, that isn’t the case. In some studies, remote employees are actually found to be more productive than in-office employees.
