Friday Favorites {8.18.23}

YAY for FRIDAY! I'm so excited to say "it's the weekend" these days, since Saturday is no longer a work day for me! I have really been enjoying my Saturdays! I've also found myself thinking gosh I'm so glad I'm not working anymore because I would be missing out on [this] right now if I were. It's really the little things😂. 

As always, I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to bring you some faves from the week! Grab a cup of coffee and cozy up- we had the slightest "cool" weather temps this week (and by that I mean it was in the 80s😂), and I am READY for fall! Sadly, though, those temps are only going to rise right back up into the high 90s. Summer, I love you, but I believe it's time we go our separate ways. (But honestly how are we ALREADY done with the third week of August??? Taylor Swift meant it when she said "August slipped away into a moment of time".........)

Alright, let's get into some faves!

In case you missed it...THIS WEEK ON THE BLOG:

I posted a Weekend Recap.

Lots of goodies in my Trader Joe's Haul! My FAVORITE item being these chocolate truffles😍! 

PART ONE of our trip to Big Canoe!

And....did you see my JOY List yesterday?? This cozy area brings me such JOY!

One of the things on my JOY list....

Gresham Bracelets! Yep, matched them to my leggings😉. I also love that nail color! OPI Rich Girls and Po-Boys. (They have the best polish AND names for the colors!)

Last week, I asked for prayers for my sister who was going through sorority recruitment. Well, on Tuesday she ran HOME to Tri Delta! 

How CUTE are these balloons?! I'm so happy for her, and we all know she landed in the exact right place- especially when she found the pickle bar at the house😂. 

One of my favorite people to follow on IG is @annesnowlifestyle - she's a FasterWay to Fat Loss coach, a busy mom of three, AND has the cutest style! 

I looked back through her IG for recipe inspo for the week, and I decided to make these Carnitas Pork Tacos. They were SO easy and SO good! 

Last fave of the day...

As you may know, I started school this week! I'm currently doing all my work at the kitchen table, but I've made it a cute and cozy little space. So far, everything is going well- I'm hoping that lasts! Also, I'm eventually going to put together a post of all my "desk essentials."

Have a GREAT weekend!

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

Friday Favorites {8.29.25}

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
