Thoughts on TLOAS

 Happy Wednesday!! Who is loving The Life of a Showgirl?? I know I sure am. Here are all of my current thoughts after listening for a few days....

The Fate of Ophelia: When I hit play after the album was first released, I immediately thought "Ok, this is the tone for the album. Makes sense. I love it!" 

Elizabeth Taylor: If you have ever thought that Taylor and Travis was all PR, just listen to this. You'll quickly realize the girl is IN LOVE.

Opalite: I 100% understand why this is Travis's favorite. Might be mine too! SO good, so fun, and so sweeeeet!!

Father Figure: This is The Man (Taylor No Longer Cares What Anyone Thinks Version).

Eldest Daughter: This song gets me every time I listen. It perfectly sums up what it's like to be the eldest daughter.  

Ruin The Friendship: Not at all what I was expecting. Regret is one of the worst things we experience as humans, and it is perfectly demonstrated in this song. (P.S., Even though it's for a sad reason, I love the mention of Abigail.)

Actually Romantic: Taylor haters this one is for YOU. I love it, and I think it's funnyyyy as all get out! If you dislike her so much, why does she consume your life so much?? (This one is reportedly about a certain celeb, but I think it fits perfectly for anyone who makes hating Taylor their personality)

Wi$h Li$t: I loooooove this one so much!! It makes me happy that Taylor knows she deserves what she wants, but it makes me sad that she will never get those things in a "normal" way.

Wood: I feel the need to crawl under the table, but I really love this one. It is *ahem* very much what you think a song called "Wood" would be about 😳. It's a fun song, though!

CANCELLED!: Ok, I just looked this up, and cancelled is the British spelling, where the American spelling is only one l. Why she used the British spelling, I don't know. But to me, this one is saying "My name is Taylor Swift and Blake Lively is still one of my very best friends." I could be wrong, but it's just what I am currently thinking.

Honey: I feel like this one is underrated but dang it, it's SO SWEET and I love it! Travis has given new meaning to the things Taylor has been called her whole career, and to me that is so powerful.

The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter): I didn't really know what to expect with this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. I love that Sabrina is on it, because she knows the life too. I also love that she grew up listening to Taylor and loved her (much like me since we are about the same age), and now she is on Taylor's album. How fun???!!

Ok, what are your thoughts?? Clearly, I love it! Truly, I love every song ever of Taylor's and this album is no exception. I do think it's different than her other albums, but in such a good way!

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 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...

 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...
