Positively Oakes

Yep, this about sums our Monday up. I'm finally sharing a review of our little robot vacuum, bObi on the blog tonight though and a couple places that have them on mega sale! So hey that's a win. Now, it's bachelor time. @bobsweep http://liketk.it/2seNc #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKHome #LTKFamily

Jess, of Positively Oakes, is one of the best bloggers out there. She lives in the Treasure Valley with her husband and toddler daughter, Blake. Have you ever found a blogger that you love to follow and you just know you could be really great friends? Like, we ARE friends in my mind. She gives you a peak at her real life, shares some awesome products, and her laugh is contagious. She comes up in our dinner conversations. Me: "Listen to what Jess did today..." JD: "You do know that she doesn't know you, right?" Me: "I know her...and that's all that matters" OK, I'm going to stop before a restraining order shows up at the radio station.

Give me an extra side of the cucumber jalapeno salsa or give me death.

I came across the Boise Idaho Memes by accident. I don't remember how I ended up on their account, but what I do know is, I spent a good 20 minutes scrolling through the posts and laughed the entire time. Definitely a great follow for some local humor!

Boise_Bucketlist  

A lovely group joined us tonight for #ArtandBoba at @monsoonnampa. Lots of bright colors, Boba Teas, and bowls. Has anyone tried Taro Boba with traditional black pearls? let's not forget the rice with Vietnamese pork, noodles, peanut and lime sauce, topped with chives and sprouts. Our next event is a #girlsnightout theme later this month. Stay tuned! If you haven't tried Boba or fast casual Thai food, cross it off your @boise_bucketlist ✅✅✅ #boisebucketlist #monsoonnampa #artandboba #bobatea A post shared by Boise Bucket List | Boise (@boise_bucketlist) on Aug 7, 2017 at 7:46pm PDT

Boise Bucketlist is a great account to follow for all things Boise. Their posts explore new places that you may not have visited or even heard of! I have definitely tried a few new places that I otherwise wouldn't have known about, just by following them!
