Happy Friday, everyone!
We’re supposed to get a load of snow this afternoon, so I’m foreseeing a cozy weekend at home, complete with a DIY wall art project, if I’m lucky. Hope you have some fun plans in the works too.
Without further ado, I hope you enjoy my finds from around the web and beyond, in this week’s Friday Favorites!
Favorite gotta have it: Salted Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie. As in, I MUST make this this weekend!!!!
Favorite tranquil spot: Flathead Lake in northwest Montana. Apparently the water is so clear that it looks like a shallow lake, when in fact, it’s 370 feet deep. Amazing!
Favorite cleaning tip. Line fridge shelves with Saran Wrap’s Press and Seal paper, then peel off and replace when dirty. Geeeeenius.
Favorite spin: Cinnamon Roll Cookies. Love this twist on a classic!
Favorite flashback. RIGHT?!?!?!!
Favorite photo. Yep…still obsessing. ;)
Favorite find: OXO Food Scale. I got one of these to review a couple months ago and I’m obsessed with it. The front pulls out so you can still read it even if you have a large bowl or platter on top!
Favorite sip: Gin & Pomegranate Love Potion. Perfect for Valentine’s Day, and I am obsessed with pomegranate seeds these days. They are so delicious and refreshing!
Favorite warm weather find: Steve Madden Manngo Woven Sandals. Hoping I can find these at DSW this spring for cheaper!
Favorite sandwich: Goat Cheese & Kalamata Olive Panini. All my favorite, zesty flavors in a crispy panini. Sign me up!
Favorite find: MY DREAM HOME! I love absolutely everything about this home. Keeping it for future building reference. :)
Favorite easy treat: Funfetti Cake Batter Dip. 3 ingredients = relatively guilt-free (for a dip with cake batter in the name!) Can’t wait to make this!
Favorite upcycle: Thrift Store Wall Art. Take a colorful piece of art from a thrift store, and turn it into a custom art piece. Love this.
Favorite sweet treat: Peanut Butter Cup Popcorn. Ummm, yes. :)
Favorite idea. This couple takes a picture of their feet wherever they travel. So, so jealous Ben and I haven’t thought of this, but I see a new tradition in our future!
Favorite soup: Chicken Enchilada Soup. Loving this latest spin on many people’s favorite soup.
Favorite furball. Baby basset says have a great weekend! ;)

I just want to say that I LOVE your Friday Favorites posts. I just can’t get into Pinterest on my own (sacrilege as a woman, I know), and I usually hate bloggers’ internet recap posts, but I absolutely adore these! Maybe it’s your great taste, maybe it’s that you explain each idea just briefly enough, I dunno. But theses posts are dynamite and I look forward to them every week. Keep rockin!

I made the deep dish salted chocolate chip cookie pie last night!!!! This recipe is so easy and yummy. It has to be made in the iron skillet! :-)
Allison 01.21.2012
This is seriously one of my fave Fave Friday posts! I clicked on almost all of the links… I need to make a trip to the store for so many things: some Press ‘n Seal, ingredients to make the Goat Cheese & Kalamata Olive panini’s and the Funfetti dip; I’d love to book a trip to Montana and lay out on that breathtakingly beautiful lake; and I totes wanna start taking traveling feet pics!

shutup. the feet photos, i love it! almost died when i saw the lil baby feet!! i want to do something similar… maybe not feet but SOMETHING the same everywhere we travel..hmm..
Rainey 01.20.2012
That commercial is my favorite, that feet picture with the baby in it is adorable, and that puppy is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
VABelle 01.20.2012
I absolutely love your Friday Favorites posts. I literally pinned almost everything in this post. Thanks for sharing and making my Friday brighter :)

Okay a few things – I just love your blog. LOVE it and telling all my Texas friends about it. I made the Quinoa Macaroni & Cheese tonight – delish and scarfed by my 3 year old. Healthy mac n cheese is perfect.
I’m moving to Omaha, NE in 5 days and look forward to reading your blog from across the way and continue to be inspired with working out AND cooking.
And…husband and I laughed to death at TV on the cart – totally agree!
Alyssa 01.20.2012
Those feet pictures are adorable, especially when the tiny feet start showing up! I love it, thanks for making my Friday even better!
Ashley 01.20.2012
Ah, cake batter dip!? Yummmo :)
Carrie 01.20.2012
The cake batter dip is beyond delish. It doesn’t last long at all in our house. We like it with Nilla Wafers, graham crackers, or teddy grahams.
Similarly, try the wedding cake shake at ZombieBurger…life altering.

That lake is amazing. We have big lakes here in Madison but I won’t dare get in them because they are so murky. Flathead Lake looks like MY kinda lake!
Evi 01.20.2012
Love the picture in Montana, I definitely would like to go to that lake! =)
erica 01.20.2012

I had that salted chocolate chip pie and the popcorn both bookmarked in google reader as well. They look awesome! And I 100% agree with your dream home photo-so perfect!
