The Tidbit

It’s our fifth week of Tidbits of Recommendations! ToR is a weekly series where we bring you our favorites in entertainment, lifestyle, and Chicago. This is the last Friday of June and the whole month flew by in a blink of an eye. Let’s see what stood out…

ENTERTAINMENT

One of my favorite stores, Half Price Books, has reopened and you better believe I stocked up on some vinyl. I also took to Amazon to fulfill some of my vinyl wishes and checked a bunch of songs/albums off of my list (including New Radicals one and only album). So, what exactly am I recommending? Treat yourself to a book, movie, or album that you’ve been wanting. This is the sign you’ve been looking for!

LIFESTYLE

This month I discovered Smartass & Sass, a subscription box curated for the sassy and sarcastic peeps who love cute stuff (AKA me!) I received a box and have actually used everything in it. The Lizzo-themed water bottle is practical and adorable, and the same could be said for the oven mitt. Sign up for a box or shop their store – these products make for unique gifts that the recipient will remember forever. (PS: Receive 10% off first subscriptions and shop orders when using code SC10)

CHICAGO/ILLINOIS

One of my favorite spots in the southwest suburbs is back open after doors temporarily closed due to COVID-19. Royal Salt Cave & Spa in Frankfort is a great place to de-stress – which is something we could all use right now. Read our review here which talks all about our 60-minute salt cave session and how relaxing it was!
