I mustache you a question…
BaHA! I couldn’t resist. We got a load of Mustachifiers before Lincoln was born, and he’s finally big enough to use them (sniff/hooray!) They’re too cute and make me insanely happy.
At any rate, TGIF! Got any big plans this weekend? We have a bunch of family coming into town, as Lincoln will be getting baptized! Lots of festivities, food, and family to be had, eaten, and hugged. Should be great. : ) Also can everyone just join me in exclaiming how we can’t believe this is the last weekend in October? I swear it was July 4th just yesterday…
Well anyway, wherever you are, and whatever you do have a good one, and in the meantime please enjoy my favorite finds from around the web in this week’s Friday Favorites!

Favorite homemade: Homemade Chocolate Fudge Poptarts. Growing up I had a deep and true obsession with brown sugar poptarts. I’d eat the crust first, saving the gooey center for “dessert”. I LOVE the idea of making them at home!
Favorite funny: Andy and Amy’s Haunted House. You have GOT (sorry to be using so many caps!) to watch this video of an unwilling Ellen show staffer going through a haunted house. Two words: STOP IT!
Favorite fall: Roasted Harvest Veggie, Curried Avocado + Coconut Rice Bowls. Wow, this recipe title keeps getting better and better! Sounds like a wonderful, autumnal combo. Love the pops of pink pomegranate, too.
Favorite decor. I’ve never seen overlapping frames hung like this. Really interesting and unique, don’t you think? Plus let’s talk about the light – awesome!
Favorite bite: Pizza with Fig Preserves, Caramelized Onions, and Chicken Sausages. This pizza literally contains everything that is holy to me – ingredient-wise, anyway!
Favorite craft: Rosemary Wreath Place Cards. I know it’s a little early to be posting Christmas crafts, but I thought these rosemary wreaths were too cute to wait. So adorable.
Favorite mini: Mini Pumpkin Pie Slice Cookies. How precious are these cookies? Right down to the “whipped cream” dollop on top. : )
Favorite furball. Dressing your pup up like a Chia Pet for Halloween? Umm, brilliant.
Favorite ‘do. First let’s all be insanely jealous of Kali’s stunning engagement photos, and then let’s focus on her amazing haircut, mmkay? I’ve decided to chop my hair (again) and this is exactly the style I’ve been looking for!
Favorite dip: Candy Bar Caramel Apple Dip. I had a similar dip at the book shower last weekend and it was SO good. Super rich which tastes fabulous with fresh apple slices.
Favorite fashion. I’ve been loving black and tan/camel combos lately. LOFT has tons of these blouses right now, FYI!
Favorite festive: Melted Witches. How clever for Halloween. Easy, too!
Favorite cozy: Bickley + Mitchell Drawstrong Neck Warmer. This neck warmer not only looks cute, but cozy, and would look fab with the new coat I got from Banana (at 40% off!) Love the little leather patch, too.
Favorite fake-out: Chinese Orange Chicken. DROOOOOL!!!
Have a great weekend!

Hi! I love your Friday posts, and I went to look at what Banana Republic jacket you purchased, and it’s out-of-stock. Do you have another link to it? Thanks! Love those cute mustachifiers :)

I’ve been living off brown sugar pop tarts for breakfast during my maternity leave!!! I know they are not healthy at all but they are so quick and easy. This morning I was thinking (again) how bad they are for me and how there must be recipes out there for homemade pop tarts. Not sure the fudge ones are that much healthier but at least they’re homemade!! Thought it was ironic when I came across your Facebook post:).
Stefanie @ Sarcastic Cooking 10.25.2013
Oh man. I love a good mustachifier. We got a bunch of them at our baby shower too. I love them and can’t wait to use them. Love that drawstring scarf and the melted witches, too cute.
Sarah @ Making Thyme for Health 10.25.2013
Love the mustache! Haha. He’s going to think you two are hilarious when he gets older and sees this!
Those pop tarts….drooooollliiing.
Jes 10.25.2013

Margo 10.25.2013
Thanks for the Friday Fav’s! Love the frames & light! I saw the Rosemary wreaths used as napkin rings, which looked really neat too! Can’t wait to see your pics from Lincoln’ Baptism! Have a great weekend!
Amy 10.25.2013

I freaking LOVE that mustache pacifier! My friend just had a baby boy and I feel like I need to go buy one for her little peanut!
Jen and Emily @ Layers of Happiness 10.25.2013
Oh my gosh my mom showed me that Ellen video last night and we were literally crying and laughing!! And those poptarts look awesome! We will definitley be trying those… my little brother LOVES poptarts. But the bowls remind me of these QUINOA BOWLS we made a few weeks ago!
Sara 10.25.2013
That video is the funniest! My husband and I watched it about 6 times last night. I love it when grown men scream like little girls. :)
FitBritt@MyOwnBalance 10.25.2013
I always love your Friday favorites! Also little Lincoln is adorable. Love the mustache! Just in time for Mo-vember.
Brittney 10.25.2013
I don’t think my heart has ever exploded just from looking at a cookie, but those pumpkin pie slice sugar cookies are the absolute cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
C. 10.25.2013
Oh goodness I need that scarf too. Great list!
Wendy 10.25.2013
Confratulations to Lincoln!!
Haley @Cupcakes and Sunshine 10.25.2013
I just love those overlapping frames. Love them. and those poptarts…oh my. my sweets craving seems to quadruple in cooler weather. I need those poptarts.
Maryea {Happy Healthy Mama} 10.25.2013
I have a thousand tabs opened right now because there’s so much in this post I want to check out. Thanks for all the inspiration!! Have a great weekend. :)
Runner Girl Eats 10.25.2013
Those melted witches are too cute! I am also really digging the overlapping frames.
TrishR 10.25.2013
Those frames!! I saw that exact arrangement at Pottery Barm a few years back, bought frames and have it on my bedroom wall. My husband and I figure if our marriage survived hanging those – it’ll survive darn near anything!! The secret – longer nails for the front ones.
And Congratulations on beautiful Lincoln’s baptism!!
Iowa Girl Eats 10.25.2013
Oh my gosh, that is too funny!! Good tip, too!
