Simply Friday

Good morning!

What a gorgeous sunrise this morning, right?

I still can't get over that it's finally light out when we leave the gym in the morning!  Thank the Lord!

Happy freaky friday, folks! :)

Isn't Friday simply the best?!?

{I know, I know, cue Tina Turner}

I came THIS close to skipping my morning workout this am, but then I decided I'd prefer to take a rest day tomorrow.

Thankfully, I had a little Britney Spears Pandora to get me through it!

Loved when this song came on...

Although, I must say I was disappointed when I turned the music up louder and realized the Pussycat Dolls are saying "I wanna have groupies."

I really thought it was "I wanna have boobies," all along.  I could relate a lot more to that! ;)

Today, I wanted to share some of my recent favorite products with you guys so that maybe you can add some items to your weekend shopping list.

As I gathered up this list, one thing stood out - these are all pretty simple items, but each one I am really enjoying right now.

1) Special K MultiGrain Oats & Honey

This stuff has probably been around for ages (has it?), but I am just now discovering it.  

I kind of got off the Special K train after burning myself out on the Strawberry kind in college, which just so happened to be the ONLY Special K my sorority would ever supply.  

Don't argue with me, you know those "strawberries" taste like straight up space food. 

Anyway, I got the Oats & Honey Special K to use for the topping of my hashbrown casserole last weekend (sick of buying a big box of Cornflakes we'll never eat), and it was a winner. 

I've now had a couple of bowls of the cereal on its own and I am a fan. 

2) Trader Joe's Vanilla Unsweetened Almond Milk 

This stuff is super cheap and it's super good.  

If you are an almond milk lover like me, pick up a gallon (or 3!) at TJ's, you'll save some $$ without sacrificing on taste. 

3) Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Vanilla Tea

Um, yeah...I could have like 8 million cups of this tea at night.  

So yummy, and it instantly relaxes me for, well, sleepytime :) 

4) Lidded Soy Jar Candle (from Target)

If you're at Target this weekend, check out these candles. 

I'm a huge fan of soy candles (they last longer!), and this line has great scents for bathrooms/kitchens.  

I picked up the Pink Magnolia for my bathroom, but I also have my eye on the Lemon Verbena and maybe the Mint Basil for the kitchen.  

At $7.99 for a larger jar, these are sort of a bargain. 

5) Skinnygirl Sangria

Not sure what is so simple about this stuff, but hey, it's Friday - time to kick back and relax, and a glass of this is sounding delish for tonight.   

Have you tried it yet? 

Hope you all have a fun Friday - no big plans over here, so I hope to catch up with you all later! 

xoxo
