Happy Friday. Oh the countdown is on till the holidays. I am really looking forward to some time off and being able to spend it with my family and loved ones. This week has been a little manic. Way too many things to do and not enough hours in the day. I will definitely be doing some catch up this weekend. You have a few more hours to enter for the Bourbon and Brew Fest giveaway here. It should be a great time! Let’s get right into these favorites!
Favorite Song
I can’t get enough of this song. Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike ft Ne-Yo Higher Place.
Favorite Recipe
One of my favorite recipes to make after Thanksgiving with leftover turkey. Grilled Turkey and Cheese Cranwich original pin here.
Favorite Workout
Do you have 20 minutes? Yes? Then do this workout. I was dripping in sweat when it was over. These seriously are the best videos.
Favorite Purchase
Let’s talk about this insanely gorgeous rose gold cuff I just picked up. I love the price point on it. In case you missed it, check out my under $25 gift guide here.
Favorite Funnies
Thinking about the time I contemplated completely giving up dairy, including cheese
Trying to cut back on sugar and someone brings in work birthday cake
When people divulge way too much personal information when they find out I work in healthcare
Trying to explain to Mark there is a difference in my brown over the knee boots and my brown riding boots
When I can’t get a patient to stop talking at the end of a visit
Finally. Getting snapchats from friends when I’m at work and they are clearly doing something way more fun
Alright, now it’s your turn tell me your favorites from the week! What are you up to this weekend? Are you looking forward to the holiday next week?

I have some Pop Sugar workouts on my blog too – they are really the best workouts & LOVE they are free!!!
Paige @ Reasons to Come Home says
I need those slippers in my life! They look so cozy! I’ve been on the 21 day fix for about 4 weeks now and I love it because you can still have cheese. A small amount but I need cheese in my life! Happy Friday!
Kate @ Green Fashionista says
That workout looks like just what I need when I need a sweat session, but don’t have a ton of time! And those slippers look super comfy, and meant to be worn by the fireplace. Happy Friday <3

I AM SO EXCITED about the leftover turkey sandwiches to come! This reminds me to put my favorite hoagie bread on my grocery list so I’m prepared!! This also inspired me to start rewatching Ugly Betty! I miss it! Happy Friday, beautiful friend!
Paige @ An Uncomplicated Life Blog says
Popsugar workouts are seriously awesome! I usually watch a vid or two before I do an at-home circuit. And I love that you call yourself out on that non-dairy nonsense you attempted! Haha! When I read that several months back I was like GURLLLLLLLLLLL… You’re going to taste soy “cheese” and be like NOPE, gimme some dairy kthanxbai! Welcome back to the good life.
Angie Scheie says
I can’t believe I haven’t heard that song before, but I love it! Also, as a dental hygienist, I give you a big Amen when it comes to patients that won’t stop talking lol. Happy Thanksgiving and Black Friday Amanda!
Katie Elizabeth says

Kiki - According to Kiki says
I LIVE for post Thanksgiving turkey grilled cheese! (; Why is left over turkey almost better than Thanksgiving turkey? Have a great weekend Amanda!!
Carly says
Hahah I always love your gifs. I have a hard time explaining to Adam the difference between booties and boots – anything more detailed and his head would explode.
Meghan says
Ah those gifs are too funny! A few years ago, I watched a documentary on Netflix basically about how much more healthy a plant based whole food diet is and for two minutes after it ended I thought I could give up dairy too…but then I thought about cheese and how I could never give it up. Speaking of not being able to give up dairy or meat, that after Thanksgiving sandwich looks amazing!
Jaelan @ Making Mrs. M says
I put that hat on my wishlist yesterday! Ha! Great blogger minds think alike. ;)
Happy Friday!
I cannot WAIT for Thanksgiving leftovers. MM-MM!
Missy says
This week has been rough and expensive, ready for it to end! Hanging out with my high school besties tonight will cure it. I am drooling over that sandwich!
Runwright says
That sandwich looks so delicious!
I started a new plan today too because I can’t imagine giving up cheese completely. Not now anyway. You might like the 40 Days of Yummy http://runwright.net/2015/11/20/40-days-of-yummy-day-1/
Pamela @ A Little Glitter says

That sandwich… omg there is nothing like Thanksgiving leftovers. Your funnies get me every week. Totally understand the one about people providing wayyyy too much info. I get texts allllll the time “so I’ve been feeling ____ all week, do you think it’s ____?” uh I don’t know!!!
Amanda says
A 20 minute workout is one I just might be able to pull off! ;P
Emily says
Exquisite pieces! I do adore that brand, and LOVE to wear it!!
kristen says
okay, definitely saving that workout for when i’m too lazy to go to the gym.
and girl yes. i’m actually not as into cheese / dairy as most people, but i could never give it up. i use a little here and there everyday. i do love sour cream more than a person should though hahahaha
