What’s a Friday without some favorites? From chewy caramels to kitten headbands, here are my favorite finds from around the web this week. :)
Favorite bite: Garlic Cheese Wontons. Another awesome wonton recipe – this one’s stuffed with melted cheese!
Favorite place. 1 vineyard, $1000 worth of Christmas lights, 5 generators, and a whole lotta’ hard work. Awesome.
Favorite sandwich: Triple-Decker Tomato and Avocado Panini with Mozzarella and Pesto. Yes, yes, yes and oh hells yes.
Favorite kitchen trick. Old parmesan cheese lids fit on mason jars. Good to know!
Favorite photo. Sigh… :)
Favorite seasonal treat: Glazed Gingerbread Scones. I am moving full speed ahead towards holiday flavors – gasp!
Favorite funny. BAHAHAHA!
Favorite Etsy shop: Bellabyte. All of her prints are absolutely adorable.
Favorite furry besties. I hear cat headbands are all the rage in Paris right now…
Favorite healthy bite: Roasted Butternut Squash Farro Salad. I tried farro – a Mediterranean grain – for the first time down here in Cali this week and it is unbelievable. Chewy and filling. Can’t wait to make this at home.
Favorite kitchen tip: DIY glass stove cleaner. I so need to try this quick, easy, chemical-free method for removing burnt food on my glass top stove.
Favorite flashback: Apple Cider Caramels. My Grandma used to make homemade caramels for us every year at Christmas. These remind me so much of those melt in your mouth, absolutely irresistible treats. :)
Favorite find: Photographer’s mittens. These would be oh so handy in the winter time – also useful for iPhones!
Favorite Friday night bite: Smoky Corn & Black Bean Pizza. Cheese, black beans, corn, tomatoes & BBQ sauce. Throw some diced avocado on there to warm in the oven, and I’m sold.
Favorite furball. OMG!!! LOVE!
Favorite feature: Waterfall wall. There was a waterfall wall studded with orchids at the spa here at the Four Seasons and ugh, I could lay in front of it with zen music playing for hours.
Favorite scene. I know. There’s snow in this picture, but I am really feeling the holidays now that Halloween’s over!!
Favorite traveling tip. Use the shower cap they give you in the hotel to wrap up dirty sight seeing shoes. Brilliant!
Favorite sweet treat: Secretly Healthy Chocolate Cake. Apparently each slice is under 100 calories? MMM!!
And with that – I am out. I’ve got a plane to catch! :) TGIF!
I just LOVE friday favorites. Where do you find all this stuff??
Pinterest, emails, Ben and random places! :)
I want to eat every single food photo! ;) The photographer mittens are genius.
They also make gloves with metallic threads in the finger tips they work on touchscreens – they simulate the body’s electric charge. A little bit nerdy for me but I bet my fiancé will love them!
yay pinterest! and vail is beautiful. i’ve only been in the summer (so no snow like in your pic) but it’s amazing!
That Farro salad looks delicious. I have used that easy stovetop cleaner on my ceramic stovetop and it really works well.
Those Garlic Cheese Wontons look amazing!
Love that you posted that stove cleaning tip!!! I’ve been looking for a way to clean my mess on there!
Love your blog — but especially on Friday!
Nice to know about the Parmesan lids. Those cat headbands are really funny!
Well, SOMEONE has been spending a lot of time on pintrest! Rofl. I love that site! It’s a tad bit.. addicting.. o-o;
I did not know that about the parmesan lids, very cool. I want to go through all your Friday favorites now.
Ok – those garlic cheese wontons are most definitely going to be our app for football on Sunday! And I must say, I always love your Friday Favorites posts. You always find such great stuff!
I love that you are getting in the holiday spirit! Now that halloween is over, I’m definitely in the holiday spirit! That scene with the house and the mountains in snow is amazing, by the way. Dream house? Sure, why not!
