Favorite Song: This time I took a song from Lucifer. I know I have heard it before, but sort of forgot about it. Talking Body by Tove Lo. Do you watch Lucifer? It is a pretty good show and I love the music! The original paramedic from Chicago Fire is one of the lead characters.

Favorite Recipe: I first saw this recipe on Biana’s blog about a year ago. I have made it so many times that I don’t even need to look at the recipe to write up the shopping list or make the dish. Delicious!!!! I make brown “fried rice” to go with it and it is one of our favorites. We had it again this week.

Favorite Song: Until You Were Gone by the Chainsmokers. Roll down those weekends and enjoy the vibe!

Favorite Moment: Laura and I checked out Fancy’s on 5th last night. It is a new restaurant in Avondale and it. was. amazing. There was a line out the door before they even opened, so that tells you something! We were lucky enough to grab the last shared table in the back, right in front of the oyster bar. It was cool watching the guys shuck those things. Laura ordered oysters and I ordered a side salad to start the night, and we both tried one of their amazing burgers with fries. Everything was delightful, as well as our service. Check out how cool this place is…

The Flying Pig – Burger with pimento cheese, bbq sauce and fried pork belly.

Favorite Recipe: Fried Honey Bananas – How simple, but amazing does this recipe look for a quick sweet treat or breakfast?

Favorite Snack: I have been consuming these for years, but rediscovered my love for them this past week. I pick them up in the produce department at Target where the fun salad toppings are. Be warned, they are deliciously addicting!

Favorite Spring Comeback: One of my favorite things about each season is pulling out my favorite items that I had tucked away. I have had this Michael Kors bag for three years now and each spring and summer it is a real treat to bring it back out!!!

Favorite Lust: These sunglasses are so darn cute!!! Maybe I can find something similar at Nordstrom Rack for a third of the price!!

Favorite Song: Don’t Forget About Me by Cloves. Such a good, chill song! Obviously I found this one through The Originals. I am telling you, The Originals and The Vampire Diaries have the best music.

Favorite Moments:

–Getting to catch up with a friend at lunch this week.

–Going through boxes that my dad dropped off to me a long time ago and finding books from when I was a kid! Memories!!! Amelia Bedelia and Mr Pines Purple House were my favorite books.

“A white house is fine,” said Mr. Pine, “but there are FIFTY white houses all in a line on Vine Street. How can I tell which house is mine?”

Favorite Beauty Product: Have you guys heard of Paula’s Choice? I have purchased several products from their site and use Beautypedia to check out reviews on many skin care products that I am looking at buying. BzzAgent sent me Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid to try, and I have to say that I am loving it!!!! After using it for a few weeks, I noticed that my skin was looking healthier and the appearance of my pores was starting to diminish completely.

It is so important to exfoliate your skin to keep it balanced and happy. When you exfoliate you increase your cell turnover rate, allow for other products to do their job better, and help cure dull and flaky skin as well as clogged pores. Exfoliating with a product like BHA is also supposed to help fight signs of aging, and who doesn’t want that?

Paula’s Choice has given me a code to share with all of you to get 20% off your purchase on their site!!! Just enter PRBHA16 at check out and enjoy shopping for some great products!!!
