I'm thankful this week was a short one because it started off sluggishly after returning home from Nashville on Monday night. Nothing the weekend can't fix right?
While at the airport, I spotted this shiny object which made me get all excited. Has anyone seen a Benefit makeup kiosk at the airport before? Luckily I didn't have a whole lot of time to do much damage but how convenient is that to stock up on makeup while traveling?

On a slightly more obscure note, I witnessed a high-speed chase as I was commuting home on Wednesday evening. A mini van (of all vehicles) was tailgating behind me until he swerved through cars to escape the cops. It was quite a scary little scenario!
I'm excited to try something new and become a mentor for the College of Business Mentorship Program at my Alma Mater University. In the next few weeks I should find out who I've been matched with.
It feels like I haven't made a new recipe in months and since I've been on a major avocado kick recently, this BLT Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocado recipe sounds perfect!
With the new work schedule, weekends have become my only uninterrupted time to write and plan posts for the week ahead. Traveling and other weekend happenings have caused some radio silence recently but I'm hopeful the next few quiet weekends will help me get up to speed.
Speaking of that, I need to get my recap of Nashville together this weekend because it was a trip of a lifetime! A big thank you to Ashley and Missy for sharing some amazing recommendations for fun and food in Nashville!
Cheers to the weekend! I hope you have a good one!
I'm with you--this was the longest feeling short week ever! Definitely looking forward to some weekend down time! Glad you're ok after the cop chase fiasco!! That's scary!
ReplyDeleteSo happy it's Friday too! That is a scary scenario! My husband comes home every night with his high speed chase stories (he's a cop)...they are fun to listen too, but I would be so scared doing that lol. Hope you enjoy the weekend!
ReplyDeleteHope you have an awesome weekend. Those chases can be scary for sure. I saw one also.
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you about needing the weekends in order to get my blogging done for the week! It just makes things so much less stressful and chaotic during the week. And why is it that the week after a long weekend always seems to go by slow? It's probably be used we spent so much time having fun, right? I can't wait to read all about your Nashville trip!
ReplyDeleteLove that you are doing the business mentor ship thing. That's so cool! Way to give back. :)

ReplyDeleteThat is soo scary about the van behind you! Hopefully they were caught without causing any accidents! The benefit kiosk is so cute- I've definitely never seen one before! I hope you guys have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteHoly crappers about that car chase, and lol at it being a minivan! Those avocados look DELISH! And love those Benefit kiosks at the airport, there's one at the Hartford airport when we fly up to CT to see family, and I love that I can stock up on beauty items in case I forget to pack something. Happy Friday <3

ReplyDeleteOh my, scary that you were tailed by a chased vehicle like that! The Benefit makeup kiosk looks so cool! They have such great stuff. The mentoring sounds like a great way to give back! Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteTGIF! In a major way. Longest short week ever! I have seen those Benefit kiosks and they are totally genius! That high speed chase sounds nuts. I wonder why that person was fleeing. Crazy. Glad you are okay. I cant wait to hear all about Nashville! Have a great weekend!
