Friday Favorites!

Are y'all ready for the weekend?

F.Y.I. Ulta is having their Friends and Family Sale, if you have an Ulta card you can get 20% your entire purchase this weekend! I don't have an Ulta near me so I ordered my goodies online (and I qualified for some FREE STUFF).  Here's a link to sign up: http://pages.exacttarget.com/page.aspx?QS=3935619f7de112ef28a77987a60bccffa16c0e7d81b8923a758208d0d97aa82b

Here are some of the highlights from the week:

I got my Tiffany&Co. bracelet fixed! B gave this to me a couple years ago because I have an unhealthy love for Tiffany's. It's the Return to Tiffany mini heart bead bracelet and I love wearing it every day (beside my rose gold watch because I'm cool like that).

My stuff from the Thirty-one Outlet Sale finally came (I bought it December 27th). As always I was thrilled with my purchase. This is a travel cosmetic bag that will hang on a door and an expandable travel bag.  If you want to know more about Thirty-one and my consultant let me know!

My Birchbox came. Whoop, Whoop! always a happy mail day when there's a pink box inside. Will be working on a review for y'all! Shampoo, conditioner, mascara, lotion and tea in this box.

Actually, this was last week but this is my bestest buddie, my baby girl, my first #puppylove, Audrey. I am never able to get a good picture of this girl but I took her to Mommaw and Popaw T's house last week. It is her happy place. She had so much fun over there that this is all she did when we got home and I was finally able to get a good picture. (ignore the crumbs on the dog bed) I love this baby girl.


What are y'all doing this weekend? today I am linking up with Jennie at The Diary of a Real Housewife blog and Lauren at TheLaurenElizabeth.com. So take a hop, skip and jump over to their blogs and check out the other lovelies that have joined the party!

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday y'all! Are y'all ready for the weekend? I am. This has been my first full week since the Holidays and I'll be the first to admit that I've got used to the leisure life :). Okay on to my favorites for the week. I'll keep this one short and sweet.

1. Russian Tea! Momaw and I picked up a mason jar full of Russian Tea mix at a church bizarre.  It's a spicy, orange tea. Three scoops of mix and some hot water and I am a happy, happy girl. Going to have to find a recipie for you guys!

2. The Library's late hours on Thursday. I picked up Why We Broke Up and The Light Between Oceans (from my Reading List) http://kbunnylove.blogspot.com/2014/01/2014-reading-list.html?m=1

3. Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation. It's creamy, blend-able and medium coverage without making you look like 'cake face.' It does come in a pump but I enjoy the jar much better.

4. The SacconeJolys channel on YouTube. I love watching their daily vlogs especially their baby girl, Emelia! Also, they have 6 dogs!! Which means they're even crazier than me!

5. This Coach Outlet and Purse. I am pretty sure it's probably last seasons purses but for 70% off who cares? Maybe you. I don't know. But that's okay, more for me :)

I am liking up with Jennifer from thediaryofarealhousewife.blogspot.com and Lauren from thelaurenelizabeth .com 

High Five (or more) for Friday!

TGIF! Are y'all ready for the weekend? I am. This post is going to cover two weeks worth of material but I tried to not be to chatty for ya!

We spent Thanksgiving eating yummy gluten-free foods with my family (minus my brother in this picture). My brother hosted Thanksgiving again this year and it was yummy. His dressing changed my life (or at least my opinion on dressing).

To add to the decadence we ate Crepes and the Crepere and Cafe of Weaverville, North Carolina. They make the most delicious crepes. What's a crepe? It's a thin pancake wrapped around whatever food you enjoy (yes, that's the technical definition . . . not).  I had the popular B.S.T.E. which is bacon, spinach, tomato, and eggs wrapped in a crepe and topped with a garlic aioli. If you are ever on a dinners, drive-ins, and dives tour check out this place (ya hear me Guy Fieri?).

Then we worked off the calories of breakfast by trudging up hill through the snow to choose and cut the perfect Christmas tree for my brother and his wife. Actually, it was a lot more fun than I just made it sound. Aren't they cute?

I almost forgot, we found my Grandmother's bifocals in an old dresser. I think they're coming back in style. What do y'all think?

 

When I got home, this beauty greeted me. He's the small cousin of the tree from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. He did get a haircut so that he would actually fit inside the space and he is b.e.a.utiful. (not sure why "he" is a "he" but we'll go with it. 

I'll be spending the weekend sewing some boxy cosmetic bags and celebrating the November/December birthdays in the Boyfriend's family.

We celebrated with his Dad Wednesday. He's 54 but thought he'd just turn 45 again instead and how can you say no to that face. ;) So I hope y'all have a good weekend. Please leave some comments below. Have you ever ate crepes? Do you have any suggestions for places to eat in Western NC?
