Happy Friday, all!
Wow, I kind of thought today would never come – such a long week! While I wait for tomorrow to come, please enjoy my favorite finds from around the web and beyond, in this week’s Friday Favorites!
Favorite cookies: NYTimes Chocolate Chip Cookies. These chocolate chip cookies are my #1 favorite cookie OF. ALL. TIME. The longer the dough sits in the fridge before baking, the better the cookies get. Bleeeeeerg.
Favorite kitchen tip. Place condiments that won’t fit in the refrigerator door on lazy susans. This would be so helpful to corral all the jam, pickles and butter roaming wild on my shelves.
Favorite outfit. HEART this combo! I’m so into flowy blouses these days.
Favorite soup: Caramelized Balsamic Red Onion Soup with Cheese Topped Croutons. French Onion Soup on ‘roids!
Favorite truth. Ummm, yeah. Like, every Saturday and Sunday…
Favorite seasonal treat: Hot Cocoa Cookies. Now that we’ve finally got some snow on the ground, these hot cocoa-inspired sweet treats sound sooo yummy.
Favorite geek need: Cable Clips. This sounds ridiculous, but nothing annoys me more than when I unplug a cord from my laptop and it falls off the table and onto the floor. Just one of those things!
Favorite place: Alesund, Norway. Perfectly picturesque!
Favorite look: Floral Dress from Express. Perfect for a warm weather Spring Break vacation?! ;)
Favorite easy treat: Cheesecake Crackers. Stir softened cream cheese with fruity jam, and spread on graham crackers. The longer you let it sit, the more the cracker will soften, mimicking real cheesecake.
Favorite DIY: Chevron Prints. I’ve been loving chevron lately, and think these would be a great accent for the guest bedroom.
Favorite funny. Pretty much what I want to do to every printer I’ve ever met.
Favorite idea. Make a heart cake for Valentine’s Day with 1 circle cake cut in half, and a regular square cake. Genius!
Favorite wow: Thorn Crown Chapel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. You have to checkout these pictures. What an amazing place!
Favorite hell yes: Peanut Butter Cereal Treats. Use Peanut Butter Captain Crunch instead of Rice Krispie treats – awwwww yeah.
Favorite kitchen. This is PERFECT to go inside my dream home, as the only room I didn’t really like in that house was the kitchen. :)
Favorite find: Essie “Meet Me at Sunset”. I bought this at Target last weekend and adore the shade. Bright, bright orange!
Favorite escape: Cafe Escapes Chai Latte. I cannot express to you how insanely delicious, sweet and spicy these babies are. I am OBSESSED! PS Get 15% off your GreenMountainCoffee.com order, plus free shipping, until February 29th with code AM0016-3592 at checkout.
Favorite picture: 6-Layer Rich Chocolate Malted & Toasted-Marshmallow Cake. Per-fec-tion!
Favorite pooch. CAN I HAVE HIM?!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!
bahahah I so re-wear clothes as well if I don’t see anyone and am just inside all day. NBD :)
Did you ever show us your new guest room? I thought I remembered you saying that you would. I love a good makeover!
I haven’t yet – still trying to figure out artwork. Thinking I’m going to make those chevron pieces, or another little project I’m working on… ;)
I love your Friday Favorites posts! One of my good friends actually go married in that chapel in Arkansas…in the fall. It was SO beautiful. Your chocolate craving definitely is showing in your picks this week :)
Oh my goodness such good stuff! Love it. Happy Friday!
I was on the hunt for the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe and I found that NY times one as well! Refrigerating the dough definitely does a little something extra. And WOW love that kitchen too!
Your friday favorite posts are my favorite! I hope you keep doing them because I look forward to them every week. BTW, totally love the green flowy blouse. I’ve been seeing versions of that shirt everywhere.
UM that puppy is ADORABLE. Like, ridiculous, makes me want to go get a puppy right this moment, kind of adorable.
Also, I have the cable clips and I love them! I’m totally with you about being annoyed when they drop on the floor. :)
Favorite truth: so true for me as a substitute teacher!! If I worked in different schools all 5 days, I would sometimes only use two outfits in a week!! And that puppy…he looks like a fluffier version of my snugglepup. So cute!
I’ve also been trying to go sweets-free on weekdays and this week was much harder than last for me as well. Last night I baked a huge batch of cookie dough brownies and stuffed them in the back of the fridge so that they would be READY when I can finally have them!
NICE. A woman with a plan!
Oh, I came across that puppy yesterday on Pinterest and repinned it! He’s just TOO cute!
I think our brains are on the same track today…
1. I have chocolate chip cookie dough in the fridge right now. Not THIS dough though. :(
2. I LOVE that outfit and the green/orangey combo. Obsessed with orange right now.
3. I tried on that dress at Express yesterday. Since I already had my tropical vacation, I decided to wait until it goes on sale to purchase since I won’t have anywhere to wear it for awhile.
4. Working on a hot cocoa cupcake recipe right now.
5. That nail polish!! I repeat, obsessed with orange right now.
6. And boy, oh boy, that puppy!
Thanks for putting all of my thoughts into such a great post today! :) Enjoy your weekend, IGE!
You will love it then – it is SO orange. But not obnoxious neon orange – just nice, orange-orange. :)
omg that puppy. And I love the NYT cookies as well, best ever :)
How did you find Thorn Crown Chapel? That place is AMAZING. My aunt and uncle live down there and every time we visit them, I visit this chapel. I think I have been there no less than 10 times and I always look forward to seeing it again. Beautiful.
I think I just found it on Pinterest! :)
