Friday Favorites!!

Happy Friday!!! Lindsey aka Bargain Blonde is re-resurrecting her Friday Favorites linkup and since she is one of my favorite bloggers and hosts one of my FAVE linkups, I couldn't wait to write my post! 

This week's favorites are a nice random assortment...gotta keep it interesting around here!

Favorite shoes
I posted about these Ugg slippers in my birthday post and have finally gotten some good use out of them this week! Temperatures around here have gotten down to the 40s at night so I've been wearing them all around the apartment and to run quick errands. If you want some warm WARM shoes and don't want a full Ugg boot, these are the way to go!

Favorite Drink
After this past fun-filled weekend (or any fun-filled weekend for that matter), my go to food is McDonalds, for a number of reasons. For starters, it's the closest fast food restaurant to my aparment . Secondly, I do believe it's the perfect amount of greasiness without making you feel sick. I always go with the classic McChicken sandwich, medium fries, and a LARGE Diet Coke. Point of this story is I have fallen back in love with McDonalds' Diet Coke. I don't know what they do but their combination of syrup and carbonation is just perfection. I may have had 5+ servings of this liquid gold this week...and we still have Saturday to go.

*on a side note, how the heck was I able to write a whole paragraph about Diet Coke?!?*

Favorite App

Pandora has just not been cutting it for me recently so I downloaded the I Heart Radio app and it's all I've been playing! I love it because I'll just go to whatever music genre I want to listen to (Top 40 for example) and I can scan through all the different radio stations around the country. Best of all I can scan as much as I want and not be limited!! I was listening to the Top 40 station in NYC earlier this week right after Sandy hit and it was really interesting to hear locals talk about it and just how much it shut that city down. 

Favorite Snack

Yall have GOT to try this combo!! The spices on the crackers in combination with the cheese is just SO GOOD! I had to stop myself from eating all the cheese wedges! If you can just eat one wedge, it's actually a pretty healthy snack too! :)

Favorite Beauty Products


One of these is an oldie but a goodie and other I just discovered. Maybelline Age Rewind Dark Circle Eraser is the best concealer I have found that works for me, drugstore or high end! I have this in a number of different colors depending on the time of year and an additional highlighter shade, and they are all awesome! My new favorite is Sephora's Retractable Waterproof Eyeliner in Glitter Black, which you can find here. I had to put a link cuz this stuff is AWESOME! I've been playing around with the eyeliners I bought in the Sephora kit I showed in my beauty haul, and this one is surprisingly my favorite thus far! When i went out this weekend I used this on my water line and it did NOT budge!! Dare I say that I like it better than the Makeup Forever Aqua Liner! It's very affordable at $12 and comes in so many colors! Do yourself a favor and check it out!

Well there you have it! My favorites for this week!! Please let me know if you have tried or are gonna try some of these things and link up with Lindsey!


Happy Friday yall!!!

Sunday Social Week 10

Sunday Social
Linking up once again for Sunday Social. And it's another one about my favorite things...FOOD!!

If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
I know it's technically more of a 'group' of food then one food item, but I've always said I would want various types of chips and dips as my "final" meal. I'm craving some even as I'm typing this...


What's your guilty pleasure/comfort food?
Nice greasy cheesy pizza. Preferably with some marinara or garlic sauce to dip it in (clearly I'm a dip person)

What's the weirdest/craziest thing you've ever eaten?
I play it pretty safe when it comes to food, but probably the craziest combo I've ever done is spaghetti noodles with ketchup

What foods do you avoid at all costs?
beef (hence the spaghetti-ketchup combo), mustard, bologna, lima beans, sushi

What meal reminds you of your childhood?
When my brother and I were little our grandmother watched us every summer and I always remember she would cook the traditional Lebanese dish rice with noodles. Since I don't eat red meat this is one of the few Lebanese dishes I eat!


Share one of your favorite recipes and the story behind it.
Considering I don't cook, this was the toughest question this week! The only thing I have made with success is Buffalo Chicken Dip. I don't really have a set recipe I use, but this one is the closest except instead of baking mine I just mix all the ingredients in a pot on the stove and let it simmer until it's warm enough. Definitely a party favorite!

Have you linked up this week? If so let me know!!
