It’s Friday. What a crazy week! Here’s what went down:
1. Sunday just seemed like a good day for a #sundayselfie. So we took one.
2. Its snowed on Tuesday and then again on Wednesday night. It’s all gone now. Winter in the South is just like that.
3. Paul came home with an arm full of Thin Mints (I may have hinted that local sales started last weekend). His exact words as he tossed me a box of cookie goodness were, “High Five For Friday that!” What a great man.
4. I’ve really enjoyed the blooms I arranged for my Spring Tablescape! So has Peggy. Ahem. #naughtykitty
5. For fellow lovers of the classic movie, you must check out “Everything I need to know about beauty I learned from Steel Magnolias.” Because we all know there is no such thing as natural beauty. 🙂
Have a lovely weekend!
Linking up with High Five For Friday, Friday Favorites, and Five on Friday
I love girl scout cookies. They are the best. I always end up eating way too many. I’m glad you had a great week. Thank you for linking up to H54F

That is the best snow, you get to enjoy its beauty and then it is gone before it turns brown and dirty! I share your thin mint love. The best ice cream I ever had was at a shop that made homemade ice cream. It was thin mint flavored, my two favorites in one, ice cream and mint!

Paul is so sweet to help you with your high five for Friday material 🙂 I have yet to spot any girl scouts so I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for them and their Thin Mints. Hope you have a great weekend.

Isn’t he the best? 🙂 Go on the girl scouts website and enter your zip code…it will tell you when and where you can find cookies. Of course this isn’t always the best information for my waistline but you have to get them while you can! 🙂

HAHAHA I love Paul quote! Hilarious! And yum for Thin Mints! Those are my favs, but I avoid them like the plague, because those little sleeves of cookies look like one serving to me. They are, right?? And while I do miss snow since living in the South, I do appreciate that it melts away fairly quickly! Hope you enjoyed your snow while it lasted! Have a great weekend.

I’ve always considered one sleeve to be a serving! 🙂 How much snow did you get? Ours is all gone now but it was pretty while it lasted.

I love your blog! Here’s a super easy recipe for thin mints. Two ingredients: vanilla wafers and mint chocolate melting discs like the ones made by Wilton. Melt the chocolate, dip vanilla wafers in one at a time and allow to firm up on parchment paper. Enjoy!

Thanks, Denise! I’ll keep that recipe on hand for when we run out of cookies. 🙂

Lord I love thin mints! I’ve been avoiding girl scouts like the plague but I may need to break down & buy some. I know the second I do I’m going to eat the whole box. #NoRestraint

Are you not supposed to eat the whole box at once? 🙂 We eat them by the sleeve!

I have thin mints hiding in the freezer at work and at home. If I had a freezer in my car, there would probably be thin mints in there too. And I love our flash winter weather. In Michigan the snow would slowly seep out. Here the ice and snow go out as dramatically as they come in. I love it!

Thanks for visiting the blog, Liz! Paul’s from Illinois and I grew up in Indiana, so we’re also appreciative of the “flash” winters!

So far we have not seen any girl scouts in our area selling cookies. My husband and daughter love Thin Mints. We keep them in the freezer as we like them frozen. Will check out the Steel Magnolias post….one of my favorite movies.

You can go on the girl scouts website and search for the stores where they’re selling cookies. 🙂 I’ve never had them frozen – I’ll try that!

Aren’t Thin Mints the best cookie ever made?!?! I could eat a box at a time! LOL Well, before I was gluten and dairy free I could have 😉 Enjoy your Thin Mints!

I saw they came out with a gluten free cookie this year…not sure if it’s dairy free, though. Mom was telling me what a restricted diet you’re on, bless your heart!
