Pinktober + Friday Faves

This week just crawled by and I had to re-adjust to a quiet household after having guests for the last three weeks. It's always sad when your house goes from busy and noisy to dead silent (other than K's football on the TV) but I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

Last Sunday, the bestie and I had fun making bloody marys at home after cooking up some brunch and just hung out before she flew out on Monday. It was really sad to drop her off at the airport knowing that I won't see her for a while.

We celebrated Pinktober at work on Tuesday and donated a certain amount for every employee that wore pink. Pink Ribbon bagels from Panera Bread were served for breakfast, which we've done for the past several years.

It's always fun checking how much cash back I'm racking up from Ebates.  So far I've racked up $70 in the last two months. Almost any (major) website/company uses Ebates so make sure to earn the rewards while you're at it! With the holidays coming up, it's really going to pay off since I do most of my shopping online.


Wednesday was ladies night out for some sushi and wine. Yes, I went to the same sushi spot on Saturday night but no harm in going twice a week, right?

This reminds me of Skyh

I don't have kids but will be using this if and when that time comes. 

Happy weekend!

  1. I'm a huge Ebates fan too! I never buy anything online without checking Ebates and ShopAtHome to see which has the better percentage of cash back...it really adds up quickly!

  4. Love those bagels such a cute and yummy idea! I used to use ebates all the time, but now I use Southwest Rapid Rewards Shopping or Jet Blue shopping and rack up miles (that's how we cashed in miles for Chicago). Love getting "paid to shop" :-D

    Happy Friday!!!

  7. Sushi - yum! It has been so long since I've had it. Too bad my husband is a meat and potatoes guy... and western Iowa doesn't lend itself to any exceptional sushi places. ha! Enjoy your weekend!
