What We Loved in 2025
Description
It's that time of year again! We're looking back on 2025 and sharing what we loved the most. This year, Andrea loved too many things to narrow her list down, so she's fully cheating and sharing a bunch of stuff in a variety of categories (Check out her music playlist here). Jodie took the opposite approach and went SO specific. Between the two of them, you should have plenty to fill the liminal space that is December 26th through, let's say, January 5th. Check below for a list of all of our recommendations.
