Friday Favorites & Weekly Recap

I'm so thankful Friday is here! I probably sound like a broken record but I'm so over this week and in need of some downtime. My 2nd blogiversary is tomorrow and wow has the time flown! I have to tell you though, it's been life-changing with the friendships, advice and support I've received from the blog world. I think I'll stick around a bit longer ;-)

Let me get right into my Friday favorites and weekly recap. As always, joining the lovely Amanda and Lauren for their weekly Friday linkups.

Doesn't this kitty almost look like a fake stuffed cat? (And, no I didn't get a new pet!)
 I ran across this gorgeous stray over the weekend. She was actually inside the bar we went to on Saturday but the bartender says she sleeps on the streets and they feed her during the day. I couldn't believe how pretty she was.

Favorite Finds:
I made these chicken pot pies from Trader Joe's over the weekend for a friend's baby shower. Such an easy and not-so-typical dish to bring to a party.

Favorite Purchases: 
Well this was a major splurge on my end but I need a big purse for work and going out and about to fit all my crap and after browsing for weeks, I decided on this beauty. 
Cute baby clothes for the shower last weekend. I thought it would be boring shopping for a baby boy (compared to girls) but I ended up scoring some cute things and of course some UCF onsies to make sure baby represents our Alma Mater. 


Favorite Recipe: 
Skinny Bang Bang Shrimp from Skinny Taste. I admit I made entirely to much sauce so the shrimp were swimming in sauce but the recipe itself is delicious nonetheless. 

Favorite Funnies:
Ugh, autocorrect will be the death of me!

Have a great weekend!

  8. That bag is amazing!! And I hate autocorrect. The second ecard is right on point. I'm such an alchy that even when I'm sober people always accuse me of being drunk because my texts suck and I'm too lazy to fix them. lol.
