FRIDAY FAVORITES....NOT SO PERFECT EDITION

This is a very interesting addition to Friday Favorites because it’s some of the not so perfect, sad and disappointing things in life. Often, we showcase our best on the blog, but I decided to do a little something different.

1. Daisy Mae

I really don’t know what this day is going to hold for me as it is the one year anniversary of our sweet Daisy Mae‘s passing! It is so crazy that in the months after she passed, so many of you friends and bloggers had your dear fur babies leave this world and you know how much I empathize with you! I’m not going to go into all my feelings on her loss as time does ease the pain a little bit, but I think this Post I wrote on it last year sums it all up from my heart!

And I am beyond ready for a new doggie, in fact I NEED a new pup for my sanity but Mr. Nine is not ready…boo!

2. Regis
We lost one of the most amazing men that the entertainment world ever created and that was Regis Philbin. One of a kind and a heart of gold! I was lucky enough to meet Regis on a couple occasions and he even had photos of the 2 us and he and my mom in his office. We shared a love for Notre Dame, and I am beyond thrilled that he will be buried on his beloved ND Fighting Irish campus! He was Notre Dame‘s number one fan of all time and an alma mater! I loved him with Kelly but it was his magic with Kathie Lee that had me mesmerized every morning!

4. Not So Perfect Pics but CUTE Outfit

Well, I have to say, this ended up being the perfect, “not perfect,” example of how things don’t always go as planned. Today, on Instagram, I was supposed to collectively join a group of ladies in showcasing a not so perfect picture. We always put our best out there so one of the ladies found an awesome quote and we were all going to share a non-perfect photo. Well, that got pushed off a week and at first, I was upset because I wanted it to coincide with my blog post today but, that’s just it, that’s how life goes and sometimes we just have to go with the flow of it, so I’ve included a not perfect picture here and I’ll post to Insta next week. In the meantime, it gave me a great reason to skip posting to Insta today and take a breather!

Nothing like a shuttlecock coming at ya or maybe getting stuck in your bun?

MORE Canceled Plans

Never in a million years did I think in March that Covid-19 would still be around come this Fall. But unfortunately plans continue to get canceled and I made a decision this week about one of the things I was MOST excited about this year! Going to Cali in September to stay at Lisa's with my Style Six crew. This would been our 3rd annual meet up but we decided it was best not to fly and for me, not to risk taking any germs from Indiana to my friends. Love them so! Fingers and Toes crossed for 2021!

The Yeti artender...on Hiatus

Hey, for the small majority of you that are loving The Yeti Bartender, it’s going to be on hiatus for a few weeks. Summer weather has given me a reprieve and I just want to spend it outside drinking a cold seltzer instead of concocting and trying to come up with new cocktail recipes. Don’t worry, it will probably be back this Fall as I can think of a few colder weather month cocktails that you just might love!

Memes

These trying times are far from perfect, but at least all the Memes have given some laughs and smiles.

and My FAV

....And then Something Sweet happens

THE BLUE HERON

This beautiful bird comes to the pond every year and while I’ve gotten some good pictures of him, the perfect shot just seems to allude me. I was taking video and pictures of him on the step railing the other morning and just kept snapping. Just when I thought I would never get a perfect shot of him, boom there it is. This is just to tell you that when things don’t go perfectly, then you turn around and sometimes they do. Never give up. No matter how many sad things happen in life, there’s so much joy! It’s all around us!

CHEERS to a Perfectly imperfect weekend!!

FRIDAY FAVORITES...LET'S PARTY

I literally cannot believe it’s Memorial Day weekend already! Normally, we do this weekend up big and usually have a little getaway, but this year we will just be at home but that doesn’t mean we’re not still going to do it up right. We are having a lovely dinner party to celebrate our two graduates tomorrow and hopefully making a weekend out of it with a pool day and lots of laughs!

1. The YETI Bartender

My precious friend, Laura Horton, sent me this Purple Rain cocktail recipe a few weeks ago around the time of the anniversary of Prince’s death. I made sure to grab the ingredients and it turned out to be one of my favorites! Check out and subscribe to my Channel

2. VitaFive

I always take my vitamins and I just love these gluten-free, vegan yummy gummies! Elderberry is especially great to boost immunity and we all need that right now! And nobody likes taking apple cider vinegar, but it is so darn good for you, so these apple cider gummies are perfect to boost your gut health. My entire family occasionally needs help with sleeping and these Melatonin gummies have all five star reviews! Use my code cloudnine20 to get 20% off your entire order! I cannot say enough about these vitamins, they are the best gummy ones I have ever tried, and they have tons of different varieties including a multiple vitamin! Plus, the eco-friendly packaging is another aspect to truly love from VitaFive! Be careful not to eat them like candy, they are that good!

FRIDAY FAVORITES....HELLO MAY

Didn’t I tell you? That April would go way faster than March! I think we were still in shock in March. At least hoping April went fast for you. This has been kind of a so-so week, I did get all my flowers potted but tomorrow it’s supposed to be 74, the heater is up and it’s going to be a pool day for Mr. Nine and our crew! How about you? What are your plans for the weekend?

1. Drop of Grace
by Mignon Faget

My #1 favorite are the beautiful jewels I got this week! New Orleans designer Mignon Faget (pronounced Men-Yawn Fa-Jay) has been creating striking and gorgeous jewelry collections for 50 years on Magazine Street in NOLA! Her designs are exquisite and inspired by New Orleans architecture and Louisiana wildlife. The Necklace and Earring designs here are called Drop of Grace and are from the feminine and fluid Whimsies collection.

WOODEN SHIPS WEBSITE

Did you see my gorgeous beachy sweater on Wednesday? And then in the above photo? I was so overjoyed that the incredible Wooden Ships Knits would share many of my photos on their website of the sweater that released this week! Let me tell you, this Wooden Ships sweater will not be my last! The slouch is perfect, it is so soft and comfortable, and every design is oh so cute!

DISTRESSED SNEAKERS
Funny story behind the Steve Madden Rezza Tennis Shoes! They are the perfect Golden Goose dupes! NOT even I am going to pay $400 for a pair tennis shoes, LOL! These cuties from Steve Madden have a great distressed look, in fact I think the worn look will be so cute with cutoff jeans and little skirts this summer! However, Mr. Nine saw them in my closet and remarked “what are those?” And I was like what do you mean, and he said, “they’re dirty,” LOL! I replied they’re supposed to be like that, but I completely get his comment because I’m one of those people that despises dirty tennis shoes, but I love these!
