Recently (in Instagram)


The weekend is near.  I am good with that.

Here's what's been up on Instagram this (and last) week!

Pa took us to lunch.  We all wanted to try a new restaurant in town......


We liked Five Guys a lot!

I won a giveaway!!!!!  French Press Mornings makes the. best. prints.  I love her work......

stolen from @frenchpressmornings

You should check out her blog (she has the c.u.t.e.s.t. twins) and Etsy shop!!!

For a Super Bowl shindig, I got my multitasking skills on.  I am thankful for my (ancient) double oven.........













Cookies on bottom.  Little smokies on top.

I might have purchased something else in the midst of my spending ban.....


When Drunken Mermaid Oddities puts vintage cameo pill boxes in her Etsy shop, you have to buy them.  

Two of them.

Because you want need two of them.

And finally. 

It just so happened that our hair dryer wouldn't turn on one morning before work.

And the backup quit after about ten seconds.

So I pulled out a backup for the backup.........


Third time's a charm.

More proof that hoarding is a good thing.

  2. A backup for the backup. That cracks me up. And it reminds me that I need to buy another hair dryer. Or two. Three girls in the house and we all share one. // Have a great weekend! You deserve it! (teachers get my respect. thanks for what you do.) xo, ab

  4. Your back up hair dryer for your back up hair dryer is EXACTLY why I have trouble throwing things away. Hoarding is a good thing :). Loved the picture of you with your pa...how adorable are the two of you? Look at you multi-tasking in the kitchen. I am impressed. You must be lucky, you are always winning giveaways. And, the pill containers/cameos are one of a kind and definitely needed.

  6. Yay for 5 Guys! I eat there WAY too much! I'm pretty sure my blow dryer is on the way out - unfortunately I don't have a backup so if it does die, I'll be stuck with wet hair!

  7. LMAO! You have 3 hair dryers. I don't even have one!

  9. I love 5 Guys!! I didn't know about it until a few years ago, but it's awesome! Maybe only in small doses though.

  10. My grandma's ancient double oven/stove just died recently. She says she isn't buying a "new" stove she wants one like she had. We tried explaining that they don't make 70s style double ovens anymore but she just isn't having it!

  11. Mmmmmm... Five Guys!! I envy you! There's not a Five Guys any where near us in Oregon :/

    You are one lucky girl with a double oven!! I'd kill for that in my future home!

    Happy Friday! xo, Bev

  12. When you instagramed the 5guys, I was actually eatting at a 5 guys location in NY. It's almost like we had lunch together! haha.

    Super jealous of your double oven. I've been at my new place for a little over two months now, and even with an oven thermometer I can't seem to get my one oven to produce consistent results. #bakingproblems.

    I got rid of my backup when I moved...so I hope my hair dryer lasts a lifetime! I have way too much hair to let it air dry before work. I guess I'd have to resort to blasting my car heater on high!

  16. hahaha, Danavee! You are so cute. We almost went to FIVE GUYS tonight but went to Cafe Rio. Do you have Cafe Rio there? It is so filling and we always have to take it home for next day! YUM! Your borrowing your Mom cameo is like what my daughter did with my long silver chain and black onyx pendant. But she lost them.... urgh. I should get on her about that, huh? Nah, she is tremendous so I'll let it ride. Thanks for your fun words. You always brighten my day/night.
