Lacey's Favorite:
The Item: Portobello Mushroom Burgers with Grilled Potato Salad
The Cost: $9.50 per serving
From: Martha & Marley Spoon Grilling Recipes
Why I Love It: I have been thinking about these portobello burgers (and the delicious black and white sesame-seed-crusted buns) ever since we grilled up this box! If the weather holds out, I'll be making this grilled potato salad for the third time this weekend... it's that good.

Ragan's Favorite:
The Item: Smarty Kat Leapin’ Laser
The Cost: $5.99
From: Cuddle Crate
Why I Love It: This is the best cat toy we’ve received in awhile. Not only is it a dangly toy on a stick (Sneaky’s and Angus’s favorite thing), but it has a laser pointer in it, too.

Jira's Favorite:
The Item: Birchrose+Co – Ginger + Citrus Lavender Body Polish
The Cost: $22
From: Botanic + Terre
Why I Love It: I've used A LOT of body polish, and this is one of the best body polishes I've tried so far. It's made of all-natural ingredients like cane sugar, sea salt, coconut oil, shea butter, lavender oil, lemon oil, and ginger root oil. It smells amazing and leaves my skin super soft and smooth. I didn't have to put on any body moisturizer afterward, either!

Anna Reilly's Favorite:
The Item: Minty Elderflower Hand Cream from Wild & Wolf’s Folklore Collection, 1.7 oz
The Cost: $8
From: Wonderful Objects "Luck" Box (Coupon: Use code WONDERADDICT10 to save $10 off any subscription!)
Why I Love It: This quarterly box always comes filled to the brim with magical items—this lotion is both novel and practical, too! The formula is light with a gentle floral scent (it's actually not too minty, despite its name), and it absorbs into my hands in a snap, leaving them velvety smooth. Plus, how cute is this packaging?!

Rob's Favorite:
The Item: Hype 3.0 Solid 7″ Shorts by MPG Sport
The Cost: $60
From: Wantable Men’s Fitness
Why I Love It: From the high-quality construction to the moisture wicking, odor control material, these have been my go-to running shorts since I purchased them. The fit is perfect for my body type and the quality of the compression lining is top notch! Very comfortable and versatile for any workout outfit!

Jessica's Favorite:
The Item: Serafini Heart Necklace
The Cost: $180
From: Gift Izzy (Coupon: Save 10% off your first box with code MSA10)
Why I Love It: This open heart necklace is made with rose gold-plated sterling silver. I love the short length and how it hits right in my clavicle. The necklace is light, modern, and delicate. I love the shape of the heart and that it’s slightly thicker at the bottom point of the heart than on the sides. This is easily one of the prettiest pieces of jewelry I have gotten in a subscription box!

From: JustFab (Coupon: Get two styles for $39.95! No coupon required, just use this link)
Why I Love It: This has become my summer go-to! The linen is lightweight and breathable for hot temperatures and I love the fit and ease of this tented dress. The pockets and casual fraying on the hem is a nice bonus.

Tiffany's Favorite:
The Item: GLOW for a Cause Facial Nourishing Cream
The Cost: Value $38
From: Wantable Makeup
Why I Love It: This cream is super hydrating and calming. It helps keep my skin moisturized throughout the night and complements my layered skincare routine. I have already had a couple of “too much sun” days and this helps keep my skin from drying out and getting that crepe-like look.
