29 Must-Haves for 29 Days: Day 1

Happy February 1st!! I can't believe it's already February, and I can't believe it was 60 degrees yesterday. Truth be told I spent all day yesterday in bed [coloring and coughing], but it sure did look nice outside. 

One of my favorite things about the blogosphere is how easily it is to discover new [to me], amazing products! Throughout the month of February I've decided to share some of my favorite, must-have products. 

I'm a big fan of Consumer Reports, but I also trust fellow bloggers quite a bit when it comes to product recommendations. Hopefully, you find my must-haves fun and useful! 

First up is my favorite office accessory: the Circa Notebook via Levenger.  I've blogged about the Circa notebook before, remember? Initially, I had the cloth cover, and I would always say to my husband, "I wish they'd make a Croc-embossed Circa Notebook cover," to which Mr. Frankel would reply, "what the Hell are you talking about, woman? I'm trying to watch 24 on Amazon Prime". Lovely conversations, I tell you. Anyhow, I was shocked and ecstatic to see that my request was granted by the office-accessory-gods: Levenger now carries a croc-embossed notebook cover!

The great thing about the Circa Notebook is that it is completely customizable; you can choose your own cover, rings, and sheets to go inside. You can remove and add sheets at any time without having to rip them. No hanging-chad-type-of-things happening in my notebook, thank you! 

People literally stop me to ask where I got my notebook. It's just that pretty . I'm debuting the croc-embossed cover at work today (it just arrived yesterday), so I anticipate spending at least 30% of my day responding to compliments. No big deal.
