Friday Faves

Happy Friday!!! We made it through another full week, and hopefully you have the prospect of a 3-day weekend ahead of you!
Friday Favorites // Friday Favorites // Oh Hey Friday// 5 on Friday
My favorites this week are:
{1}-Happy Hour Celebration
After work today I'm meeting up with my friends from work for a little happy hour to celebrate my one coworker's birthday. This is the group that we went out with for drinks after my holiday party over the weekend, so it'll be nice to hang out outside of school again. Plus, it's Friday before a long weekend, and what better time to celebrate?
{2}Favorite Quotes
I saw this one over on Owen's blog yesterday and it was a great reminder 
And my bestie sent me this one this week, which I also loved:

{3} Favorite Meal
On Wednesday night I made spinach artichoke "dip" pasta. Oh my word was it delicious. There was very little that was 'healthy' about this dish but I didn't even care because it was filled with creamy deliciousness! All of my coworkers at lunch yesterday commented on how good it looked (and it was!!)
 Recipe coming soon :)

{4}Favorite Tutorial
Did you catch my girl Karly's blog earlier this week with her recommendation and tutorial on the Hot Tools thermal styling brush and how to get a nice DIY blow out? I'm buying that brush and I'm totally following that tutorial because who doesn't love a blow out? And Karly's hair always looks amazing!

{5} Funnies

How I want to respond when someone has a meeting that should be 45 minutes and it ends up being 2 hours...all of which is past your contract time (aka not getting paid)

Have a quick and easy Friday, and enjoy that weekend! You deserve it :)

  6. Yay for a three day weekend! I know this is weird but I have always really enjoyed blowdrying my hair (if being a nurse doesn't work out, I should go work at a DryBar), so I will definitely check out the tutorial and the thermal styling brush! I hope you have a great weekend and an awesome time at happy hour!

  13. I think the highlight of reading your Friday posts are the Funnies. I love reading them and they always make me LOL! Also I love that meme of Lauren Conrad, I'm still not sure if that is real or totally staged. A large part of me screams staged.

    Have a great weekend girlie!

  18. I'm angry at LOFT - they sent a purple email the other day, and I was super excited because purple is my favorite color, and they had very little in the way of purple. Blah. Liars. Anyway stay strong! You can do it!

    No long weekend here, but vacation next week. Have a great weekend!

  37. That pasta looks so good! And I also can't stand meetings that go way longer than they're supposed to. I don't have the kind of personality that wastes time well.
