A little Friday love

C'mon. Say it with me:

Thank goodness it's Friday!

I have seriously been a day ahead all week, thinking it was Tuesday on Monday and Wednesday on Tuesday ... well, you know what I mean. It's almost over, though, and I couldn't be more excited.

So in honor of the impending glories of the weekend, let's show Friday some love.


Food: First up, the Quaker Life Soft-Baked Banana Walnut Bar. I was able to try one via a mailed free sample. In one word: Awesome. A few more: It's soft and chewy but has a great crunch from the nuts. I ate mine this morning after warming it in the microwave and smearing it with some peanut butter. I even used a fork! It was almost like eating banana bread. Almost. The nutrition stats aren't too bad either, and I recognized 99% of the ingredients.


Running: The reappearance of my United Run for the Zoo tech tee. I have been missing this baby for a good week, and I was sure that Mark was responsible. While he didn't steal the shirt (as I thought), it was on the floor of the closet underneath his duffel bag and three of his sweaters that didn't want to be on hangers. Totally his fault. Now if I could only find my 3 missing running socks. Running with just two pairs is sort of stinky.


Life: Boots. Boots, boots and more boots. I always wanted to wear boots - the knee-high kind that looked oh so good with leggings and a tunic or tights and a sweater dress. The only problem was that I could never zip them up. I even splurged on an "extended calf" pair from J Crew, and I still couldn't wear them. Well, as I'm sure you've figured out, I can now wear them. I've been rocking an above-the-knee pair from JCPenney. Love 'em. Just don't wear them to work on a day you plan to get a pedicure. Just sayin'.

Have a great weekend!
