Oh hey Friday! Happy to meet you again. So ready for the weekend. But first, can we take a minute to talk about this flash back Friday photo my Mom dug up?!?! A few things. My hair? My Mom is a total babe. Benny is a spitting image of my sis. My Dad looks like a teenager. And we’re sitting on the deck at the cabin. Same place I will be spending this weekend ♥ along with a lot of snow. It’s always fun to pull up to the cabin anticipating how much snow will actually be on the ground. I have a feeling we’ll have more than I’m ready to deal with…Ha! Did I mention, I’m not a fan of the snow…like, at ALL! Cheers to the weekend friends!
5 things on my mind…..
ONE – The Skinny, Skinny Margarita // Whenever I order a marg, I always ask for a skinny, skinny marg. Ha. I hate sweet. The less sugar. The less syrup. The more tequila….the better. Am I right? I want to taste what I’m drinking. You know when you take that first sip, and you pucker up because it’s so overly sweetened? Not havin’ it. So, I think I invented the at home skinny, skinny marg. Unless some other jerk already has. But, until then, I’m claiming it! This is like my second invention in a week! Remember the roasted cauli rice one last week on {friday 5}? That was mine too 🙂
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 3 oz Patron Silver (don’t buy the cheap crap)
- 1/2 cup lime La Croix
- 1 lime juiced
- Ice
- Margarita salt
Run the cut side of the lime along the rim of the glass. Dip in margarita salt.
In a shaker…or yeti, like I used, combine all ingredients. Give it a good 15 second shake.
Pour into glass + add a little more ice.
Enjoy
Make another 🙂
Dos margaritas!
TWO – Velvet Tank // Velvet was such a BIG deal this fall/winter. I was all about it. As Spring starts showing it’s pretty face, I have a feeling the trend will fade. But, this velvet tank top wont. I promise you will continue to see me wearing it any chance I get. I also layered necklaces for the first time. Did I do okay? I’m kinda diggin it. Now I need some long necklace options. This one here is from Forever 21 a longgg time ago. And it’s still alive. Don’t hate/discriminate on F21 jewelry. Some pieces will outlive you 🙂

THREE – Oscar Bingo // I can’t remember a time where I enjoyed the awards season more. The red carpet fashion. The stars. All the movies. I think watching a lot of the movies that are nominated helped. I, Tonya. Lady Bird. The Post. COCO. Wonder. The Greatest Showman. The Big Sick. And just this week we crossed Darkest Hour + Roman J. Isreal, ESQ. off the list too. Denzel Washington deserves “Best Actor In a Leading Role” for Roman J. Isreal, ESQ. He was, as always, fantastic!
Super pumped for Sunday’s Oscar Awards. Bay + I plan to pop some popcorn, bust out some bubbles (for me obvi) + play a friendly game of Oscar BINGO! Check out these super cute free printable cards I found on Pizzazzerie. Four different cards so you can play with your kiddos + company.
