FRIDAY FAVORITES FEBRUARY FUN

Hi February Friday! We made it! Heading out boutique shopping with mama, brunch with family tomorrow and Super Bowl Sunday! But I’m not that excited about the game this year. Hopefully the commercials are good and TBH I don’t remember who the halftime entertainment is, (shrug shoulders) lol! I DO remember that I love Fridays, Favorites and YOU! Oh, and my tooth is better, yay!


 Tea with The Twins

Of course, my ultimate favorite of the week involves the twins! All my life I’ve dreamt of a tea party with granddaughters. You may remember me talking about this on the blog that my mom got me a tea set years ago and told me this is to have tea parties with my granddaughters hopefully someday and it all came true. I wasn’t sure they were ready for it but boy, did we have a good time. Bear Bear joined us. And I had Mr. Nine jealous that he had to work and wasn’t there for it.

Grammy got them these Pink Floral Outfits
LOVE the Cat & Jack brand at Target. 
So cute and affordable.

 Water Fountain Candle
Last summer when my mom and I were up in Saugatuck, Michigan, she bought the coolest water fountain candle, with a beautiful light and calming sound in a cute little boutique. I was admiring it over the holidays, and she surprised me the other day with one of my very own, including the beautiful champagne color on it, which I love. So sweet of her! LOVE hearing it trickle when I am reading. Can't find online but AMAZON does have them, they are just currently unavailable.



 Sourdough Bread
Mr. Nine brought home the prettiest loaf of sourdough bread on Tuesday! My dear friend Lacey, who is the wife of a coworker of his has been cultivating and creating beautiful sourdough bread! It was just as delicious as it looks! All our sons gals have been on the sourdough train, and we got them cool sourdough starter kits but I have yet to make any, I’m starting to get the itch! Do you make sourdough?


Outfits
My favorite of these outfits is the one with the blazer simply because it is one of the best blazers I found! It’s From the Scoop Line at Walmart. The sleeves are a little bit shorter with ruching and buttons, and the color is darling!
Blazer HERE // Jeans HERE // Tank HERE // Pave Heart Necklace HERE

Sweatshirt HERE // Pants HERE //  Sneakers HERE // Bag HERE // Hat HERE

Sweater HERE // Bag HERE // Shoes HERE // Jeans HERE

 Mocha Mousse 
The reason why I mentioned the blazer is because when you look at it, it’s could be considered a brown hue part of the mocha mousse family! If you don’t know, Mocha Mousse is the Pantone color for 2025 and it is lovely! Literally the color of Swiss Miss Cocoa powder, ha ha. The Blonde Squad and I are planning a very special blog collaboration next month that involves this lovely color!


Amazon
Did you see the Amazon Prime link up Post on Monday? We didn’t have a lot join us yet, but I had many messages saying that because they didn’t buy much in January they’d be joining us in the months to come. But I realize I also forgot to add my new Exercise Ball under $10 and 5 Star Book!

 Blast from Last

Since we are talking a major sporting event this weekend with the Super Bowl, I thought I would talk about a fun baseball game. After the kids got married and moved from Baltimore last summer, we went to visit them in Cleveland and went to a Guardians baseball game! We had a “Ball.”

Happy Weekend Babes!
Will you watch the Super Bowl?

AMAZON PRIME PURCHASES

Welcome Friends! Welcome to a new era in the monthly Amazon Prime Link Up originated by our dear friend, Tanya from The Other Side of the Road. Jill from Doused in Pink and I are happy to be hosting, and we hope you’ll join us whether as a participant or a reader garnering great Amazon ideas!

 

For me, not only am I including what I bought this past month from Amazon, but I’m also including some great gift ideas and all things hearts. I purchased several of these either for myself and/or gifts and they’re perfect!


This Walking Pad is one of my number one favorite purchases ever! I’ve had it now about three weeks and it’s amazing! There’s nothing that replaces outside walking but when the polar vortex hit hard in January, I knew I had to have something. I had sold a manual treadmill years ago and Mr. Nine and I had just never got one, although we keep talking about a peloton. With the price of this one you just cannot beat it, plus it’s portable and I truly can’t find any cons with it.

 

Meat Chopper

I melted the handle on my old one. It was time for a new one. Truly one of the greatest inventions to chop up ground meat. Use it at least a couple times a week. This 

Is a GREAT ONE. 

 

Headbands 

One of the girls requested this set of Headbands on her Christmas list. With such an amazing price for a 2 pack, I decided to get them for all the girls. They shared the black ones with the boys, and it made for a cute group photo on Christmas Day. 

 

Belt 

A dupe of dupes. It literally identical to the one from Madewell and a 1/4th of the cost. Very high quality Belt

 

Produce Containers 

Holy moly do these babies keep veggies and fruit fresher for longer. Truly one of my favorite kitchen storage purchases. These Produce Containers come with 4 sizes and they stack inside each other when not using them. 

 

Low Carb Hot Chocolate

I was indulging in hot chocolate over the holidays more than once a week. When January hit and sugar when bye bye in my diet, I still craved it on cold, snowy days. This keto friendly version is only 45 calories and blank net carbs. 

  

Cetaphil Make Up Remover

I should call this Eye Make-up Remover as I only use it on my eyes. I use the Cleanser for me face. I just put a little on a cotton pad and gone so gently! Pixi stopped making my favorite remover pads, but this is the BEST replacement. 


Wall Sconces 

My mama got these Battery Operated Wall Sconces and were both loving them. So much so that I think Mr. Nine and I will get a set. They come with a remote control, can be set on a timer and have 3 light modes. So elegant and modern. Here are my mom’s that she put on either side of a mirror. 


 
Hearts, Hearts, Give me all the Hearts
 and for him, Check out this Jerky Heart Box!


Thank you for linking up your Amazon Purchases with us.

We’d love it if you’d follow both of us on LTK (LikeToKnowIt) where we share more Amazon fashion, beauty and decor.

FRIDAY FAVORITES HASTA LA VISTA JANUARY

What? Are you kidding me? The longest day of the year is finally over, I mean month, I mean, January, lol! You did it friends! But I’d be lying if I said I don’t want snow in February, just give us a couple blasts, lol! 

Not a favorite this week with some tooth pain I had, the dentist was able to fit me in on Wednesday and I was scared to death that there was going to be infection and a root canal and crown needed. I actually was one of those cases that baffled him because he was a little bit unsure what was going on and doesn’t want to do any kind of work until we have a definitive diagnosis, so I have a mouthwash I’m using and we’re going to look at the tooth again in two weeks. I’m hoping for the best. Let’s get to some Friday favorites, friends!


Shopping with the Babes

Shopping at Home Goods with these two, their mama and my mom and then all having lunch together at Panera to celebrate their mommy’s birthday was definitely a favorite!

Massage 

Last year I had so much stress and so many neck problems that a friend of mine suggested the massage therapist where she works. Luckily for me, she also does massage out of her home and will come to yours. I’m now on her books monthly and she has done wonders, this coming from a girl who never used to get massages, lol. I went to her house Tuesday, and I was so relaxed all day!

Obviously After, LOL

Outfits

Free Assembly Spring Cuteness

I showed you a Collage last week with some of the cutest pieces from the Free assembly line at Walmart. Luckily, this week several of the line’s pieces arrived at my house, and I am here to tell you the quality is spectacular! Just look how cute. I think my favorite might be that. Let me know your favorite.

Stella Mae

This girl! Mr. Nine’s girl! And mine. Celebrating three years next week of her gotcha day. She is the best dog that either one of us have had. She is 8 pounds of pure love and devotion! She is truly happiest when she is either outside with us, going for a car ride, getting a pup cup with her “Giga,” hanging with her boyfriend Tater, or lounging on our laps. A true lap dog with so much love! She sleeps curled right up next to me, and we truly do not know what we would do without her. Not kidding when I say we’ve seriously investigating cloning her DNA, lol!


Her Boyfriend Tater



Blast from Last 

My Galentine’s. A set of ladies I also don’t know what I would do without. We try to get together quarterly, and this was one of several visits last year. In April, we did a favorite things party in Chicago and had an absolute blast. Lots of cocktail time too.
