FRIDAY FAVORITES

It's winding down Loves. No worries, still time for beach days, sitting on the deck and lots of ice cream and frozen goodness. This week flew. First full week of kids back in school and I blinked and woke up to Friday. Yay! Weekend here we come! Make it a good and happy one and do something you LOVE!!


1. LUKE BRYAN EDITION YANKEE CANDLE
Smells like Vanilla Bourbon...warm and sweet, just like Luke!! Branding Genius right there!!
 

2. INSPIRATIONS With HATS TOO
Hoping to recreate some of these darling outfits with cute hats.




3. WORK ATTIRE
Still hot friends, (except for yesterday) so still playing it cool so I can shed layers after work for errands and the drive home.

4. SWEET TREAT and A SAVORY SIDE
COTTON CANDY SANDWICH CREMES
 Remember I mentioned in my County Fair posts, my love of Cotton Candy? Well, I have found the perfect cookie. I love a shortbread cookie with frosting and this one is perfect! Not too sweet but all the cotton candy goodness in cookie form. The recipe link is below and the frosting mix and flavoring can be found at Wal-Mart or on Amazon.

TWICE BAKED POTATO CASSEROLE
This is a great Sunday Side Dish. Like, you'll want to lick the pan good!

5. BLINGIN' OWL
We came home to a lovely gift my mom had left. Look at this adorable owl she got at 
Pier One. I LOVE owls and to decorate for Fall, so this guy is perfect. Thanks sweet Mom!!

Bonus STARBUCKS Pumpkin Spice Trivia I heard this week:

*They are actually adding REAL Pumpkin in and not just pumpkin like spices.
*The caramel artificial coloring is out, thank goodness.
*Release Date: September 8th, the 4th in select stores.
Oh and Starbucks is going to start selling alcohol! I'll take a shot of 
Bailey's in my PSL please!!

Linking up with Amanda // High Five For Friday // Friday Favorites // Charming Friday // Oh Hey Friday

Happy Weekend!!
