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!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

 And just like that.....it's CHRISTMAS BREAK! And my last post of 2025! But before all of that, let's get into some faves from my week! Linking up with Erika and Andrea. Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day. Tuesday-  Anything but a bag. Wednesday- Favorite Christmas song or movie character. Oh Christmas Tree, Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, or as one student said...the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! Thursday- Christmas tree topper meets hat. This one did not last long in my hair...hahahah! Today is another PJ day for "Kinderland"! My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea. Makes me sad that it's limited edition... I was looking for some go...
