5 on Friday!

TGIF, everyone! Is it just me, or did this week feel 5 years long? (Even with a "snow" day on Tuesday!) To kick off the weekend, here are 5 things I want to put on your radar.



I got an email in my inbox this morning about it, and I'm already obsessed. I'm already getting tunnel vision for that green bag! Why, oh why, are my birthday and Christmas 48 and 47 weeks away?!

2. I have so many books on Amazon right now for sale! I've sold a bunch already, but I still have many left. Click the link if you're interested in purchasing one! "Entre Nous" $3, "The Help" $3, "Greenhouses of Hope" $3, "The Accidental Billionaires" $3,  "The Next Best Thing" $1,  "Swine Not?" $3, "Very Charleston" $2, "The South Beach Diet" $2.48, "The Giant's House", $3, "The Feminine Mystique" $5, "The Best of Everything" $1, "Killing Kennedy" Audio CD, $10, "A Conservationist Manifesto" $9, "Where Girls Come First" $2.50, "Going Rogue" $2.50, "Seriously... I'm Kidding" $10

3. Since Weigh-In Day was yesterday, I wanted to splurge a little bit with dinner, so we made a family favorite - Bee Stings!




We originally found the recipe here but have put our own spin on it. Here is OUR version:


Although we go for the fancy mozz and meat and get basil when we can, we usually stick with sliced deli cheese and meat, and use honey without basil when we can't find any fresh. Otherwise, we follow her directions exactly! They are SO GOOD. Seriously.

4. Tonight we're having a friend from my church back home over for dinner (he's in town for work), and I plan on cooking Chicken Lasagna Roll-Ups. Yum yum yum!


5. The weekend is already jam packed - I'm going to browse for a dresser and bar cabinet (see below for inspiration for both) tomorrow after my hot yoga class in the morning, and Sunday (if the weather cooperates) I think L and I are going to take Loola to the local state park and do some fishing or hiking! Yay!





Have a great weekend everyone!

  2. I'm LOVING that green bag too! I just had my birthday on Thanksgiving and Christmas is past, so I'm in the same boat as you...all my wishlist items are going to have to wait!

    1. Patience is a virtue, I hear... :) The bright side is that I'm sure there will be even better lines out by then, right?
