Friday Favorites - June 27, 2025

 

It's been a good 2 years since I've updated this blog! I enjoy reading everyone's Friday Favorites, but kinda lost my blogging mojo. It's time to jump back in.

#1 Friends


This week we had a fast trip up to Cordova, TN, to a mounted shooting competition. I'd reached out to Jenn earlier this week for recommendations for restaurants in the area and she invited me to coffee! What a fun visit! I absolutely loved visiting with her and she is the same in person as she is on her blog. She's so genuine and fun! 


The shoot had 81 entries; we hung out with some old friends and met some new friends. My husband is in this photo with a fellow competitor he's known for over 20 years. Mounted shooting is such a small sport and we travel all over the country as competitions are far and few between. I would say we probably know or met someone from every single state and a few countries along the way. 


Last night, our friends came over with their kids. We had fajitas, rice and beans for dinner and the guys worked on a project. It was fun catching up with my girlfriend Stephanie. I am absolutely terrible at taking photos and the only photo is the one of my father in-law's dog. At least he's a cutie! 






#2 Netflix

My Netflix intend to watch list is long! My hair dresser recommended Waterfront; she said it's dramatic like Yellowstone, but on the water. We watched the trailer last night and I added it to my must watch list. 

Stephanie and I started watching Train Wreck Poop Cruise last night. Oh my goodness! It's crazy to see how fast that cruise went downhill. 








#3 Face Primer

I saw this face primer recommended in a Facebook group and now I've worn it for a couple of weeks now. I can definitely say it's become a favorite. It's a great price, I found it at Target, and it certainly stands up to our heat and humidity. My make up has stayed on longer using this than any other primer. 






#4 The Garden

The spring tomatoes I planted are playing out, so I started another round of tomato seeds and a ton of green chile seeds for transplanting next month. 















I hope y'all have a fabulous weekend!

This week I'm linking up with Erika & Andrea for Friday Favorites!

    Yes to Waterfront; it's a good one! Jenn is just the sweetest. I have really enjoyed getting to know her in real life and seeing how much she is just like her blog persona.

    Face Glue. The name alone is reason enough to buy it! That's hilarious!

Friday Favorites - July 25

Happy Friday Friends! I'm so looking forward to the weekend; I have some shopping plans and we're hosting some of my husband's college friends for the weekend. We have some yummy drinks and foods planned for the weekend.  #1 Birthdays & Spa Days We celebrated my friend's 40th birthday! We had a party for her to celebrate on Sunday then Monday we went to the Lake Austin Spa. Voted by Conde Nast as the #1 spa destination in the US. It didn't disappoint! We had massages and facials and spent time lounging by the pool.  #2 Desserts Some of y'all know I have a more professional blog. I added a new recipe over there for The Best Vanilla Whoopie Pies with Buttercream Filling ! So yummy! We've been eating on these throughout the week, but they are HUGE so we generally split one.  #3 A New Minimalist Purse I've been having such should pain and finally gave in that it was in fact my heavy, very large purse I'd been carrying. I ordered this cross body with...

Friday Favorites - July 11

  Happy Friday Friends! I'm so looking forward to the weekend; I don't have a lot on the schedule, but I have some plans on my to do list. Looking forward to some walks outside in the sunshine, tackling a few projects and relaxing.  #1 Baking My friend Stephanie and I baked kolaches. She's a pro at it and helped me; we split these up for the July 4th weekend. Red (raspberry), White (cream cheese) and Blue (poppy seed). They were all so good and disappeared quickly this week. These were so easy! Just Rhodes dinner roll dough and Solo pastry filling. We did make the topping and cream cheese filling from scratch .  #2 Health Getting back on the health and wellness track. I had a skin check at the dermatologist which I haven't done in 10+ years. I went to a new clinic and it was a little bit of a drive (about 90 miles), but I really liked the staff. All good news! Yay!  I also did my Caroline Girvan Iron program workouts twice this week, cold plunged twice and used the s...
