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!
You are so sweet to share my orange chicken – thank you! And that mustachifiers? So cute! Is it wrong that it’s totally making me want to have babies now? :)
Oh my gosh, that pacifier is insanely hilarious!!!
Thanks for another FF!!
Love the mustache! Good luck with the baptism. Have a blessed family weekend :)
I had seen that very Orange Chicken recipe, made it last night and just finished the leftovers for lunch today. If you haven’t made it yet it is worth every bite.
You’ll be pleased to know that Amy, the Ellen staffer, is Amy Rhodes, who grew up in West Des Moines. There’s always an Iowa connection!!!! :)
THANK YOU for sharing the video clip – I laughed so hard I cried. I’m still chuckling just thinking about it..haha.
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 :)
Aw, dang, I don’t! It’s not anywhere else on the website!
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:).
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.
Love the mustache! Haha. He’s going to think you two are hilarious when he gets older and sees this!
Those pop tarts….drooooollliiing.
STOP IT! Thanks for sharing that Ellen clip! Heard on Big Ken and Colleen that Amy is from WDM :)
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!
Great Friday Favorites! Love the pic of your son:)
I am inspired to make some cookies…..so thx for that!
Determined to get over to IKEA this wknd….It’s only 20 min’s away….so i never feel an urgency but when I do get there—I am super happy. I need a new bookcase…..that’s prob a good place to find one.
Have a good wknd IGE & family!
