Friday Favorites | 5th Edition

February 7, 2020 Leave a Comment

I️ can’t believe it’s already Friday again! Somehow the weeks go by slowly and extremely fast at the same time – I️ think that may just be life with young kids. Ha! We’ve had an interesting weather week – starting off with gorgeous spring weather and opening the windows on Monday to enjoy it and ending with thunderstorms, tornado warnings and back to cold temps. The tease of warmer weather has inspired me to really get our home projects going…we lost a lot of momentum over the holidays, but now I️ just want to get it all done and make it look like we actually *live* here 🙂 We did a super small project this week that I’ll be sharing below. This week’s Friday Favorites is admittedly a little bit all over the place, so bear with me!

ONE | Chocolate-Dipped Cookie Dough Hearts

Chocolate Cookie Dough Hearts

My girls are always asking to do crafts or bake something and they love a good holiday theme (totally got that from me!). I️ found a recipe for these cute cookie dough hearts covered in chocolate and we all chipped in to make them together. They are pretty delicious, but I️’m all about cookie dough, so no surprise there. I️ personally enjoy cookie dough way more than baked cookies!

TWO | Trader Joe’s Coconut Body Butter

Trader Joe's Coconut Body Butter

My skin gets so dry and itchy in the winter and I️ tried so many lotions and none helped. In the fall, I️ saw Trader Joe’s had a seasonal pumpkin spice body butter and naturally, I️ had to try it. I️ ended up falling in love with it and it moisturized my skin so well! I️ was sad to run out of that one, but picked up the vanilla scent during the holidays and that was great too. Just a few weeks ago, I️ ran out and all they had was the original coconut scent – which smells amazing! I️ usually lean toward more pricey beauty products, but this inexpensive body butter is now my go-to.

THREE | Under Cabinet Lighting

Under Cabinet Lighting

We have been talking about under-cabinet lighting for several years now. We wanted to do it in our last house and were actually in the process of researching the best types when we had a change of plans and sold our house. We’ve invested a lot more in this kitchen and house than we’ve ever done before with previous homes, as we really want to customize it for us – so we finally bit the bullet and got under-cabinet lighting! We decided to go with battery-operated lights for now – these were highly recommended and we didn’t want to deal with hiding cords, etc. with wired lighting. They definitely add a little something to the kitchen and I️’m so glad we did it!

Told you guys this week’s Friday Favorites were all over the place! My goal is to only share things I️ really, truly love and use, so sometimes there’s zero theme involved 🙂 Let me know if you’ve tried any of my Friday favorites in the comments below – or if you have other faves to share this week!

Never too soon, right?! ❤️ If 2020 taught us a Never too soon, right?! ❤️ If 2020 taught us anything, it’s to celebrate the small things — there’s nothing wrong with getting those Valentine’s Day plans started, you know, to celebrate at home...in your PJs 🤪🤣 This sweets board is so easy to make and it’s a hit with the little ones! 🥰 What are your Valentine’s Day plans??

Slowly but surely pulling the dining room together Slowly but surely pulling the dining room together, with the help of @thehavenly! I shared about my experience with Havenly on the blog last year (just search “Havenly”!), but I love that I can just log in and see my designer’s recommendations anytime and make decor purchases....even a year later 🤪 Next up, artwork — where have you found pretty art for your home? I need some recs! ❤️ http://liketk.it/35I8T @liketoknow.it @liketoknow.it.home #liketkit #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKhome #LTKstyletip
Slowly getting back to normal over here after the Slowly getting back to normal over here after the holidays, but not gonna lie, it’s been a rough week 🥴 Between getting back into the swing of early wake ups for school, a teething baby who hasn’t felt well all week, whatever is happening with our country these days, plus doing a veggie cleanse and not having full energy....let’s just say, I’m looking forward to better, brighter days 😆 How’s your first week back after the holiday break? Hopefully it’s been better than mine 🤣🤣

Happy NYE, friends! It certainly has been an inter Happy NYE, friends! It certainly has been an interesting year, but I can’t say that 2020 was all that bad for us. I joke about it being a ‘dumpster fire,’ but I have appreciated all of the extra time at home with my family, not feeling the pressure to always be on the go and of course, launching my business @somethingbleuclt! ✨ I hope you have time for a moment to reflect on your year and find the good moments and hold onto those memories ❤️

Decided to go all out this year and make macarons Decided to go all out this year and make macarons for Santa 🎅🏼 Did you know that traditional French macarons are gluten- and dairy-free? I️ made mine with @egglandsbest 100% Liquid Egg Whites, my favorite brand of egg whites - they are always gluten-free and contain 5g of protein per serving! It was surprisingly simple to make these macarons, and now I️'m hooked! You can make them for any holiday or theme just by changing the color and flavor! <3 #HolidayswithEBEggWhites #ad
