Pink Ranger Haul + Chit Chat 🩷

This is going to be a chit chat with a small haul kind of post… we’ll see what happens. 😅

90s nostalgia is a big thing for me. Everything that belongs to my childhood or represents it, has a very, very special place in my heart. That's why I love throwbacks and walks down memory lane so much.

Usually, on my breaks I do general cleanings, to get rid of the things I no longer use, I give them or throw them away, depending on the condition. This last break wasn’t the exception. But doing this also helps me find some other things that were stored and I forgot I had. This makes me remember things and obsess with others all over again. 

In this case, I realized I had enough things to make a haul (5 seems like a good number of items to me) of a character I've loved since I was a little girl and represents something I really, really like, the color pink. 

Yes, we all know by now I am a big pink lover and I'm proud of it. My life might not be pink but most of the things around it are. I’ve loved it since I was a little girl and that is something that hasn’t changed with time. 

There is definitely a "pink girl stereotype" and I think some people have this idea that if you like pink, you’re not someone to be taken seriously, that you might be dumb, extra sweet or suuuuper romantic which is defo not my case. Yes, I think it can be a very girly color and I love that because I am girly. It's just my happy color!

Growing up I loved Legally Blonde so much (I wouldn’t call it my favorite movie now but I still like it) and even some of my students gave me the nickname “Miss Pinky”, so it was only normal my favorite Power Ranger was of course, the Pink Ranger. 

And that is what I want to show you guys today, some of the Pink Ranger stuff I have which are mostly clothes and a couple of goodies. I used to have more things tho, like an action figure that came with a mini Kimberly, that was the size of a Polly Pocket but I lost it at some point in life. 

I was a big Mighty Morphin Power Rangers fan, especially the first generation(?). Amy Jo Johnson will forever be my favorite Pink Ranger, I still follow her to this day. I think I stopped watching the show as often after she left. Despite what people might say, I also enjoyed the 2017 movie where Naomi Scott played Kimberly. After that movie, I started following her career too. 

I can't with the awkward poses tho

Anyway, enough with the rambling, let me show you the small Pink Ranger haul.

I'll start with some clothes (excuse the colo change in the photos😅):

I bought this tee a couple of years ago, when they celebrated the MMPR 25th anniversary. I love everything about it. I believe it was from Optima. I was surprised they had some PR stuff.

Ok, this might not be Pink Ranger but it's still pink and Power Rangers so, yeah. I don't remember if this one is also from Optima or if it's from Cuidado con el Perro. I don't know if you can tell, but this one has some blue stains on it, I wore it during a paint ball war thing with my students on children's day and sadly, I havent been able to completely remove them, no matter how much I wash it.

This hoodie has to be one of my favorite hoodies ever. It is from Quiubolee! and I was a Christmas pressie from the bestie a couple of years ago. It is the softest, warmest and most comfortable thing ever. I wear it a lot.🩷

I'm not sure where this small articulated figure is from cuz I randomly found her in a garage sale and I couldn't leave her. She's too cute!

Lastly we have this really nice notebook I found at Walmart. They had some of the other Rangers too but I only got this one. It is pretty plain inside tho, I wish they could've added a design or something too but, oh well. I haven't used it yet, I always tell myself I need to find something cool for it. Any ideas?

Those are all the things I could find, I'm not sure if I'll find or buy more in the future. I used to have a black tee with all the Rangers but, I gave it to my sister cuz she also loves Power Rangers and she didn't have anything.

Hope you enjoyed this long and random chit chat/haul kind of post. I know for sure I love sharing these type of things around here, hehe.

See you next time~! 💋

๋࣭🕸๋࣭ ⭑Halloween Haul ๋࣭🕸๋࣭ ⭑


Every year I like to do some Halloween shopping to add new things to my decor and this year was no exception. I have too many things, including many random trinkets. I really wanted to buy things that were a little bit more useful without loosing the spooky vibe cuz, even tho I love decorating, I also like to keep my house functional.

I'm gonna start with 2 things I bought last year when spooky season was over  and didn't have the chance to use/display. These two are from Prichos, which is a kind of dollar store you can find in some Walmart stores over here. 

First, we have this cute witch hat candle. I totally forgot I had it until I started decorating this year. It is pretty simple, yet cute. It's black with some silver details. It has this sublte incense scent. Honestly, I just want it for decoration, I don't thing I'll ligth it. It's pretty, I'd feel bad.

Next we have this black oven glove (not sure if that's the right name~) with cute ghosties all over it. I believe this was the collection Prichos had last year. I'm slowly trying to buy more Halloween kitchen stuff to use during the season so, yeah. I wish I could've bought matching kitchen towels too.

Now, let's move on to the things I bought this year.

I initially wanted this bat liquid soap dispenser for the bathroom but I realized it was too big so I decided to keep it in the kitchen. They had a skull and a ghost too but when I went back to get another one, they were gone. It is plastic but the quality isn't bad.

How cool is this spider vase? I fell in love with it when I first saw it and went back to get it a couple of weeks later. I didn't plan it but, it was destiny, haha. I love it because it matches the spider tablecloth I recently bought.

This has to be one of my favorites this year, a Nightmare before Christmas wine bottle top. I saw these at Walmart and automatically knew I needed. It came in a set of two, I'm keeping one and giving the other away as part of the Halloween pressies this year. It is something I'll use all year long, not only this season.


I decided to upgrade my tablecloth this year! Hehe. I used to buy those plastic ones and, even tho they were durable, I defo think the house looks better with a nicer one. This one has spiders and cobwebs all over it. I have to admit, it looks a little elegant and I love it! They had a matching table run but I only saw it once, I wanted to buy both but, I couldn't find it anymore.

Lastly we have Thing from The Addams Family (more like from Wednesday in this case). I've been an Addams fan since I was a small girl and my first idea was to get it to complete a Halloween pressie but then, checking Amazon, I found 2 for the same price I saw a smaller version so yeah, it was too good to resist.

Even tho it looks slighly different from the pics online, I think it looks great! It is made out of latex, has a very realistic size and good details. It's a great prop and I loooove how it looks standing next to my decor this year.

And, that is it for now. I've been buying other things for pressies that I might share later in the month. I'm sure I'll buy more things for my house too so there could be a second Halloween haul post or, I'll just save them for next year. We'll see!

🍂🎃 Pumpkin Spice Yummies Mini Haul 🎃🍂

Autumn is officially here and we all know what that means, it's pumpkin spice season! You can call me basic but, I couldn't be more excited. I am super ready for cozy sweaters, hot drinks and spooky vibes so, let's welcome the season with a pumpkin spice mini haul.

It's been kinda cool cuz these special / limited edition products are new this year. At least where I live. I know that in the U.S. pumpkin spice products are everywhere so, it's nice to see more brands releasing pumpkin yummies.

Look at all that orange in one picture~!🧡

Let's start with some candy. Actually one of my friends discovered these and told me about them, I knew I had to go get them right away. I've known both products for years now but I just discovered (and only because I wondered why the presentation was the same) they are from the same brand, Arcor.

Bon o Bon are chocolate candies with wafer and a filling I can't really remember cuz, even tho I don't dislike them, I just don't buy them as often. This time they have pumpkin spice filling.

The bag comes with 10 chocolates but I think there's a bigger presentation too. I was actually surprised cuz, I really, really liked them! The pumpkin spice filling isn't super sweet so it goes well with the chocolate. They are perfect to enjoy with a cup of coffee.

I really like Butter Toffees and I do buy them often. I think I've tried most of the flavors they have. I especially like the chokko mint and chokko cherry toffees. My grandpa loves them too. This bag comes with 30 toffees, more than the ones I usually get.

The smell of these is super strong! You can smell the spices as soon as you open the bag. The taste is also very strong. It's a mix between caramel, pumpkin and spices. They are addictive! Haha. Once you start eating them, you can't stop!

Moving on, we have these two coffee creamers from Coffee Mate. We all know I love my PSL and I really like the idea of being able to make myself some at home too. I got the 2 presentations they had at Walmart.

The first is this liquid coffee creamer, I was especially excited to try it. It's not overly sweet but it does have enough sugar to give your coffee a nice, sweet taste. You can defo taste the spices but, I am not sure if what I taste is pumpkin spice or if it's more like a chai... either way, I loved it!

The other one I got is the powder creamer(?). It is very similar to the liquid one but less sweet. It does add that Fall-ish taste to your drink but I do suggest adding some sugar if you want a sweeter drink. 

And that is that for this mini haul. Like I said, it's exciting to see more pumpkin spice products in stores now. 
Hope you all have a wonderful Autumn~!🧡

| MINISO | Sakura Blossom Collection Haul🌸


Spring is almost here which means sakura season is getting closer and closer. We all know we love sakura goodies here so I was super excited when one of my friends told me Miniso would release the Sakura Blossom Collection. It is not a super new collection cuz they started selling some things last month but I haven't seen everything in stores yet. The things you find can also depend on the store you visit.

I do want to get as many things as possible but I also wanted to show you the few things I already have so, I guess we'll divide this collection posts into parts. Hehe.

Let's start~!! 🌸

First, I got 2 organizer boxes. They are made out of this kind of thin plastic material (dunno how to describe it) and they are foldable. The only down side of that is that they wrinkle easily. 
The only came in withe with pink flowers and, they are pretty big: 36cm x 26cm x 22cm.

The picture doesn't show but they also have pink handles on both sides.



I think they are great for storage and look cute at the same time. I defo want to get more!

Then I got another container thingy. This one looks like a small laundry basket. It is 18cm x 18cm x 20cm. They also had a bigger version but I didn't buy it cuz, I already have a laundry basket. I might get it later too tho~

It is made of the same material as the previous boxes but the print is sligthly different and the colors are a little stronger. I think it's prettier and less wrinkly.


Thing is, I already used the other 2 boxes but, I haven't found a good use for this one. Suggestions are more than welcome! Hehe. 

I also got face towels!

And I actually needed new ones. I was planning to buy them from Miniso anyway, cuz there's where I usually get them and, I was lucky enough to find sakura ones! They are 25 x 50cm, again, pink and white and they are super, super soft.
They come in a set of 2 towels for a very good price. 



Something I do want to mention is, the fabric is not really a towel fabric, it is polyester (not that I know much about fabric), but they absorb great!

Lastly I got the cutest headband!

I got the pink band with white flowers but, they also have a white one with pink flowers. Both were really pretty. This one is made of a thin, towel like fabric.

I love the bow detail!


I like it because it is not super tight like other headbands I have. (Yeah, I have many more). I basically bought it to use whenever I wash my face, apply a mask or even do my makeup. It is a very cute way to keep my hair off my face when I do it. Hehe. 

This is how it looks on

And well guys, this is everything I have so far, I'll make sure to show you if I end up getting more goodies anytime soon!

See you next time~!! 🌸

Cat pressies haul 🐾


A few days ago was International Cat Day, so of course, Masha recieved some pressies. My mom says Masha is a spoiled brat, and she might be right. After I moved, Masha became an only child and since I'm out working for many hours and she's very needy, I try to spoil her to keep her happy and entertained. Yeah, I'm that type of mom.



Let's take a look at Masha's new goodies.

This first toy isn't exactly new, she's had it for about a month now but I thought I'd include it here.

Flopping fish:
I remember when I first saw the ad online, it said it was a "trending toy" for cats and I knew Masha had to have it. 
This electronic fish is very realistic looking and it responds to movement so, when your cat touches it, it starts dancing.
It came with a charger and a little catnip sachet inside. You can remove the elctronic part to wash it and the battery lasts for a couple of days even when you constantly leave it on.

I find it funny and Masha likes it. It catches her attention and keeps her busy for a while.



The next two items are from the same store, Un dos treats.Which is a mexican store dedicated to make pet treats with very unique and interesting flavors. Everything is made with natural ingredients.

First we have the fish and cucumber ¡Cha-Cha Shakers! Which is a seasoning for dogs and cats. It's as thin as spices and the smell of this particular one is similar to dry shrimp. You just mixed it with their food and they can enjoy. Masha loved it and Michee and Dako (my sister's dog) also recieved one. They also had another flavor that I might get later. Of course, I don't give it to her everyday.




I also got her some Catgrass, for some reason I thought it'd be ready but the set came with the soil, seeds and "pot". The pot is pretty much the can it came in but it's still cute. I already prepared it so, I hope it survives. I'm not really good with plants. But grass should be easy, right? 
We'll see how it goes.



This is how the cat grass looks after a week


Lastly we have the SmartyKat Crackle Chute Collapsible Cat Tunnel which Masha hasn't used yet, she's still kinda scared of it. She shyly gets close and sniffs it but, she doesn't completely gets in. Hope she starts liking it soon.




And that is it for this cat haul, I think it's the first time I do something like this so I hope you enjoyed.
If you want to see more from Masha, feel free to follow her on Instagram! Michee also has an account.
