Happy Friday, all!
Did anyone else have day later syndrome all week, thinking it was a day later than it actually was? Ben and I have both been hollering about it since Tuesday, which maks today feel extra sweet!
I’ve got some fun, friend plans on the agenda this weekend, starting with lunch with a friend today, then hanging with a couple more friends this afternoon. A friend’s dinner is on tap tonight, followed by another one tomorrow. FRIENDS! They make the world go ’round. ;)
Whatever YOU’RE up to, friends, I hope you have a blast. And, in the meantime, please enjoy my favorite finds from around the web, in this week’s Friday Favorites!!

Favorite sweet: Caramelita Cookies. Oh mama mia. Chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (my favorite cookie, btw) STUFFED with caramel. YES!
Favorite furball. Work it, honey! ;)
Favorite bite: Spicy Tuna Hand Rolls. If you don’t feel like rolling your own sushi, these hand rolls are a much easier alternative. I love how fresh, spicy, and moutwatering these look.
Favorite bling: Michael Kors Watch Band Bracelet. Ooo, how jazzy, right? I love that it’s adjustable, too.
Favorite sip: Raspberry Pomegranate Champagne Cocktail. I could totally suck one of these back right now. Or 10. They looks soooo refreshing.
Favorite fitness: Tank Top Arms. I zipped through this workout the other day after a treadmill jaunt – my arms are so sore! Helped to think about tank top weather while doing it though. ;)
Favorite idea: Cauliflower Risotto. Brilliant! Can’t wait to try this low carb take on risotto!
Favorite healthy: Green Detox Smoothie. I saw Allie post this recipe on Twitter the other day and craved it instantly. Going to go pick up a pineapple tomorrow (they’re on sale at Hy-Vee) and make one ASAP!
Favorite fashion. Super-cute collabo of grey and white, with a pop of peach.
Favorite breakfast: Quick Breakfast Migas. Eggs + sausage + tortillas + avocado = shovel.
Favorite cute: Heart Printed Bowls. How adorable would these be for February?
Favorite photo: Guinness Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Ganache. I could stare at this magical, mouthwatering photo all. damn. day. What a beautiful shot!
Favorite find: Outdoor Kitchen Bar. Totally fun pass-through from the kitchen to a patio bar. LOVE!
Favorite bite: Greek Nachos. Ooo la la, check out those layers and layers of Mediterranean flavah!
Favorite keepsake: Wood Burned Recipe Cutting Board. Great idea – find a special, hand-printed recipe then scan and transfer it to a cutting board. Burn the recipe in with a wood burner then hang in your kitchen for a sweet keepsake! Last night I had a dream about doing this for wedding invitations. The shipping costs are what stopped me though. HUH? ;)Â
Favorite dip: Buffalo Chicken Beer Cheese Dip. I can’t even control the amount of drool dripping out of my mouth. Totally making this for the Super Bowl!
Have an awesome weekend everyone!

Had me at buffalo, then Beer, then blue cheese. Not sure about the “has to be IPA” on that link but the rest makes complete sense to me. :) Hope all is well with you.

So great to catch up on Friday, Kristin! Thanks for the lovely lunch and conversation. Looking forward to more fun together soon–and looking forward to trying this cauliflower risotto. YUM!

Those spicy tuna rolls: WOW! I want to eat that whole plate and then for dessert eat those oatmeal cookies. I just ate lunch and am now hungry again! :)

I am also loving that Michael Kohrs bracelet..so classy!
Brittney 01.11.2013
Have you tried the Beer Cheese Dip from the HyVee on Grand (that’s the only one I’ve ever found it at.) Paired with pretzel bread, it goes down far too easily!
Mandy 01.11.2013
Oh my gosh those Caramelita cookies look too good to be real!
I pinned that Tank Top Arms Workout to my Pinterest boards a few months ago, so I try it every so often. Every time my arms are KILLING me by the end. How do I not have Michelle Obama arms yet?!
Sarah E 01.11.2013

Katie @ Blonde Ambition 01.11.2013
Love the white + peach + beige outfit!
My roomie and I are hosting a Middle Eastern/Mediterranean dinner party tonight and I must make those Greek nachos my contribution!! The only catch is one of the girls coming over is vegan, so I’d have to veganize it. Challenge accepted!
Brie @ Entrée the Giant 01.11.2013
I love forward to these posts every Friday :)
Lauren 01.11.2013
Whole Foods makes the most amazing Carmelita cookie. I can’t resist one every single stop – not to worry, I don’t live near a WF’s so it only happens once in a blue moon. Probably a good thing. ;)
Bev @ Bev Cooks 01.11.2013
Gosh, thank you so much for showing off my rolls! Wait, that sounds weird. Now I’m hungry.
xoxo!
