Friday Favorites

29 Nov

It’s that time of year, where we get together with old friends, meet some new friends and spend time with our families. I also love decorating my house for Christmas!!! There’s just something about feeling comfort and peace when my house is decorated. I wish I could keep my white lights up all year round!! But since Friday is right around the corner (and I can’t wait!), I thought I’d share my favorite things from this past week.

Favorite Winter Feeling: My house being decorated. Trees, snowmen, stockings, wreaths, you name it. I love it.

 

Favorite comfort food: This week has been beyond stressful for me. So instead of continuing to eat ‘healthy’, I spoiled myself with a delicious comfort food of mine~ Bacon & cheese pizza with fries. Talk about carbs!!! I’m going to be paying for this one for awhile. Lol

 

Favorite Holiday Movie this week: Home Alone~ I love a lot of holiday movies but this is by far one of my favorites. This past weekend, I had a nice quiet Saturday night after spending the day at my sister’s and watched Home Alone. This movie always brings me back to my childhood.

Favorite Event: My sister’s “Sprinkle” for her and my soon to be nephew. This past weekend, I threw my sister a “Sprinkle”. If you’re not sure what a Sprinkle is, it’s a smaller version of a baby shower for a mom-to-be with her second child (or third, fourth, etc). I held it at her house with our family and a few of her closest friends. It was a lot of fun! If you’d like to read about it some more, check it out on my sister’s blog www.modmommy.com

My sister and some of her friends. Even my sister’s dog,Riley, is hanging out with the girls.

 

What are some of your favorite things this season so far?

 

Hope you all had a great week!

Weekend Favorites

3 Nov

With Hurricane Sandy blowing through this past week, there are so many images that saddened me, including the ones here in my home state of lil’ Rhody. With that being said, I wanted to share some of my favorite things from last week and this week. These are things that made me smile, chuckle or get creative. Hope all of my east coasters are hanging in there!!! We’re all praying for you!!

Favorite TV episode: The Ellen DeGeneres Show

I have to admit, I DVR and faithfully watch Ellen every.single.day. She always puts me in a good mood, gets me to literally laugh out loud and I love seeing all of the good she does for people. This past week she had her HallowEllen show and let me tell you, I think my neighbor heard me laughing out loud by myself. Haha!

 

Favorite Candy Treat: Twix & Kit Kat

Last week I found myself in Target (bad move right there), I had a list needing to pick up some things before the storm came. I found myself in the Halloween section (I have no business being in this section. I have no children nor trick or treaters) and I bought a bag of Twix and Kit Kat. Who am I!?! Let’s just say every day I have decided I deserve a treat every day. So much for sticking to my healthy eating!

 

Favorite Halloween Movies: Practical Magic & Hocus Pocus

For as long as I can remember, my sister and I always used to watch Hocus Pocus and Practical Magic when we were younger. Now that we are all grown up, this still hasn’t stopped us. These two movies are my all time favorites for this time of year and I will never get sick of them.

 

Favorite Fall Project: Mantle over my fireplace

Ever since I moved into my condo almost 6 years ago, I look forward to decorating my mantle above my fireplace. Each night when I come home, I love turning on the lights right above and seeing the fall decorations. It’s so relaxing.

 

 

Hope you all had a great month of October!! Bring on November!

Friday Favorites

12 Oct

With the help of one of my favorite blogs, LaurenConrad.com, I thought I’d do my very own Friday Favorites segment. It’s a great idea to reflect upon my week and see what kinds of trends, ideas, foods, etc. that caught my eye.

Favorite Jewelry Piece

I have my favorite Marc Jacobs silver watch for my everyday wear, but for the few times a week that I may wear anything with a gold tone, I’m in a desperate need of a gold tone watch. While “window” shopping on Macys.com, I found this really stylish and affordable Style & Co. watch!!! I think I may have to just buy it.

Favorite Mid-Week Bite

I have been completely obsessed with zucchini lately. I will eat it any way possible. I’ve also been eating a lot of bean sprouts.

Favorite Fall Show of the Week

Now that fall has finally arrived, I’ve been so excited that my tv line up has reappeared. This week, and many more to come I’m sure, is Revenge. If you haven’t seen this show, you are totally missing out!!! You need to get on this train and watch with me.

Favorite Pinterest Idea

I’m so proud of myself with this one. I was s around on Pinterest last weekend and came across an idea. The next day I was shopping around at Home Goods and put together this really cute centerpiece for my kitchen table.

Fall Look

LOVE this look!!! It’s perfect for a dress down Friday at work or catching up with your girlfriends on a Saturday! I must recreate this!

Favorite Treat

Now that fall is here, my favorite treat to have to warm me up is Starbucks hot chocolate. Definitely my guilty pleasure!

What are some of your favorites??? Feel free to share some
Happy Friday!!!
