Hello Friday! I can’t believe the weekend I’ve been patiently waiting for is finally here! Our BBQ party is tomorrow and the weather should be fantastic!
Also, I have to say thank you to all of you who linked up with us last Friday! I was so excited to read everyone’s 5 favorite things!
So here we go! My Friday 5:
– ONE – I am obsessed with our new patio furniture. We picked up this 4 piece Belize Occasional Furniture Set from World Market on sale {and used a coupon} last weekend.
It’s funny how much our {porch} and patio decorating has taken priority over the inside of our house. Now that the weather is nice in the evenings, we love to unwind with a drink in our little sitting area. I also just ordered a cute outdoor trellis rug for this area and can’t wait for it to arrive to complete this space.
– TWO – Barefoot just came out with a new sparkling white wine {or maybe it’s new to my Teeter} and I am loving how crisp and refreshing it is. Oh, and I should mention it’s only $6 a bottle!
– THREE – Homemade Blackberry & Lemon Greek Yogurt Popsicles!
These are ridiculously easy. I picked up the mini Popsicle mold from Target in the dollar aisle. Ready for the recipe?
Blackberry-Lemon Greek Yogurt Popsicles
Mix the following ingredients together and freeze:
1 cup Blackberries, mashed
2 cups Lemon Greek Yogurt
1-2 tsp Raw Honey
– FOUR – I have stopped crying over Google reader and am now obsessed with feedly, a new RSS feeder. I have the app on my iPhone and love it more than any other app {excluding Instagram, of course}. If you’re looking for a google reader alternative, you need to check feedly out!
– FIVE – McDonald’s new Egg White Delight McMuffin is ridiculously amazing. I hadn’t eaten from McDonalds in years until I stumbled upon a coupon in my Us Weekly for a free sandwich. The new sandwich is advertised as only 250 calories (50 calories less than the traditional Egg McMuffin). Fresh grilled egg whites, creamy white cheddar, and extra lean Canadian bacon on a whole grain English muffin for $2.69? SOLD!
