Friday Favorites – Fall Is The Best Time Of The Year

This post may contain affiliate links. Purchasing through them help support this website.
Happy Friday y’all!  This week was over in a blink of an eye right?  I’m down for four day work weeks all the time!  What are your plans this weekend?  I am so excited for some Gator football and NFL games to start.  Hello 7 layer dips am I right?  Let’s get into the favorites from the week!

Favorite Song
I heard this on BPM the other day and immediately loved it.  Talk about amazing running song, it really picks up after the 1:50 mark.  Starkillers feat Alicia Madison “Silence”.  

Favorite Recipe

I always lean towards Asian inspired meals especially cold noodles.  This Sweet and Spicy Cold Peanut Noodles recipe has been on major repeat especially since the weather hasn’t dipped out of the 90’s in the past few weeks.  Please make sure to pin from the original.

Favorite Workout
Love this workout!  Doesn’t require a lot of space and no extra equipment!  Full workout here.  Please pin from the original.
 
Favorite Purchase
Bring on the Fall fashion (even though it’s still a million degrees here!)  Plaid is making a major comeback this season!  Get this one before it’s sold out!  I have a feeling this is going to be on major repeat!  Also loving this one///this one///and splurge piece but amazing!!!
Plaid with studs details
Favorite Funnies
Yup pretty much…..
The beauty of dry shampoo
I try to explain this to my sisters kids all the time.  What I would pay for a nap in the middle of a random Tuesday now…..
All….the…..time
Pretty much the response I’ve gotten for the past few weeks when I try to cook…..it’s the countdown to get Wedding ready right?

When I got a quote for how much the twinkle, uplighting and hanging lanterns would be for the wedding….
via tumblr
When one of my patients tries to drop a medical term that is used or pronounced completely wrong

Finally when I have an inside joke with a blog friend or we both get excited over a major shopping sale score
via tumblr
Then I try to relive the excitement to Mark and I get this……

Alright now it’s your turn tell me all your favorites from the week!  I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!! xoxoxo

    I have been obsessed with plaid lately too, though I have been sticking with scarves mostly. I wish nap time was a thing for adults, much needed on most days.

    Love and need that plaid shirt, perfection.

    Your funnies always make me laugh.

    I am loving that plaid shirt with the stud details on it – and also I saw one with ruffles on the end of the arm (cuff) I don’t know what it’s called LOL and I about died from how cute it was!! I always say how much I wish I had listened to my mom when she said it’s time for bed, like seriously all I ever want to do is sleep!! I feel your pain on money being thrown every which way for the wedding!! 1 more week….have a fantastic weekend xoxox!

    Haha YES to the nap rollover plan – can I please trade one in for 2:00 this afternoon?!

    Ohhhh I am going to have to try that noodle recipe! I have a spicy thai noodle that I do that is a bit different and this would be a great change up.

    Can I just say how happy I am plaid is making a come back, because to me….it never really left. I haven’t exactly sported any in the last few years but only because I couldn’t find a cute top with it. Now they are every where! It is one 90’s trend that I think should stick!

    I did a little dance when I found those leggings last night, then I was like oh I need to text Amanda! Haha :) Blogger probz!

    Loving that plaid shirt! As much as I’m not the biggest fall fan, I have to admit transitioning my wardrobe does get me a bit excited!

  15. Jana @ Jana Says says

    September 5, 2014 at 12:08 PM

    I love all types of cold noodles. And how excited is my 17 year old self that plaid is popular again?

    Have a great weekend!

  18. Amanda {Kids and Cabernet} says

    September 5, 2014 at 12:16 PM

    September 5, 2014 at 12:18 PM

    I love that song! I don’t workout or run when I don’t have to, but it’s still a great song :)

    September 5, 2014 at 12:52 PM

    Those cold noodles sound amazing!! I am seeing the Asian food trend with you!! Love your funnies as always! My best friend and I always send pins to each other, a couple weeks ago we both sent each other the same pin, funnel cake bites!! Yeah that’s a thing!

  26. Elise @ High Heels and Glittering Eyes says

    September 5, 2014 at 12:55 PM

    Yes to 7 layer dips (gah why are dips so good)! That whole rollover nap thing couldn’t be more true. What I wouldn’t give to take a quick 30 minute nap after lunch everyday.

  27. Jessica says

    September 5, 2014 at 1:16 PM

    yay for football season! I can’t imagine still being in 90 degree weather, I hope you enjoy it…or I hope fall arrives soon for you. :) love the funnies, perfect for a tired friday morning.

    I don’t wear plaid because I went to Catholic school my whole life, but that shirt is really cute. Love a refreshing recipe when it’s hot, and thanks for sharing that workout. Oh and as usual, your gifs are hilarious. That last one is definitely Chris when I tell him a story sometimes haha. I’m also probably the only person who could care less about football season, just about football food.. haha. Have a fab weekend lady! :-)

    7 layer diiip, what what. Totally breaking down in a happy dance over here just thinking about 7 layer dip! Yum. Speaking of all things healthy, I’ve been obsessing over some Popsugar workouts lately.

  33. Katie Elizabeth says

    September 5, 2014 at 1:53 PM

    September 5, 2014 at 2:09 PM

    I am downloading that song! I love a good running song!
    And that plaid shirt is AWESOME sauce.

    And when is your wedding? Mine is in 30days!!! And yeah – trying to stay totally on track until then – I just got to keep the fitness high – and the bulky food as low as possible. Either that or I’m buying a scary waist trimming corset – like that Khardasian freak wears.

    My fiance makes the same face when I tell him about something hysterical that happens at work.. ugh men.

    :)
    Happy Friday!

  35. Tori says

    September 5, 2014 at 3:27 PM

    Tyler has the PERFECT plaid shirt but it’s about 4 sizes past “slouchy” so I can’t really wear it out in public. I am determined to find the same thing in my size! Um, that recipe sounds amazing, so up my alley! Happy Friday!!

  45. Jill Jones says

    September 5, 2014 at 3:46 PM
