Friday, really? Are we sure that’s right? What a week! I’ll be back on Monday to recap our amazing 4th of July but for today I hope you all enjoy these Friday Five!
1. HelloFresh knows that if they send me a coupon code I will most likely reactivate my subscription, and that’s exactly what happened this week! I can’t say no to 55% off well, almost anything, but especially delicious food delivered straight to my door. And oh, how I’ve missed your delicious food HelloFresh! No, it doesn’t fit in our grocery budget every week but it is nice to switch things up every once in a while! Last night’s dinner was yummy (spicy!!) Beef Taco Pizzas and I already can not wait for tonight’s Lobster Ravioli with Chorizo. YUM. If you haven’t tried HF yet and want to use this link for $40 off your first box!
2. I finally decided to bite the bullet and order this feather art to frame our TV after contemplating for literal years what I wanted. I love how it turned out! I asked Nathan what he thought of it (never a good idea) and he said to me “It’s fine. I just don’t get the boring color scheme.” I proceeded to tell him the polite word was “NEUTRAL.” Sorry, not sorry that color makes me anxious. (Our TV stand can be found here and currently on sale for 25% off! It does not look grey in the picture online but it is the same one.)
3. I finally jumped on the bralette train this week and ordered this one from Amazon. I’m obsessed. I think I’ve worn it every day… I accidentally got an unpadded one which is not a huge deal, but I still have to wear a regular bra too, whomp whomp. There are several color and padded/unpadded options and the price is amazing. I’ve actually ordered several pieces of clothing from Amazon over the last couple of weeks and will share the hits/misses with you all next week because Amazon Prime is life, am I right?
4. I told you all about my dilemma on Instagram Stories yesterday but you guys, I’m about 8 chapters in and I really don’t like The Great Alone! Maybe my hopes were too high because The Nightingale was one of the best books I’ve read in years? When polled on Instagram most of you said to give it up and move on to When Life Gives You Lululemons but a few people were very passionate that it gets better. I might give it a few more pages…maybe.
I (finally) finished up First Comes Love this week and I thought it was just ok. Maybe that was because I own it and kept picking it up and putting it back down when a book hold from the library came up. What did you all think of this one?
5. If you missed this Old Navy dress when it was only $8 I’m sorry, BUT it’s on sale now for just under $15 and restocked in all prints and sizes! Go, go, go scoop one up! You can’t beat the comfort, length, or price (obvs). I love this navy stripe that I’m wearing (duh) but the hunter green and palm print are really cute, too! The sandals I’m wearing here are also on sale at Old Navy and not only are they CUTE but they are super easy to walk in even though they don’t look it!
Have a great weekend, every one!
