Friday Five.



Linking up today with the girls of 5 on Friday! You should join, too!

Here are 5 things that are on my mind this week...
 
-I was at World Market last weekend picking up some ginger beer to make some Moscow mules and while standing in the check-out line, I saw the cutest things.
 
Individual adult bevs for someone on the go! Mimosas, bellinis, sangria, etc!

-Cameron's parents recently had their screened in back porch re-vamped into a sunroom. It is the perfect place to sip on a drink, read a book, and enjoy the view of the Stono River..all while enjoying the air conditioner. We were sitting out there on Monday and after the crazy day I had at work, it took all that I had in me not to fall asleep. So peaceful.
 
-I made this delicious recipe from SkinnyTaste two nights ago and I can't wait to make it again! Prosciutto and cheese stuffed chicken. Mine isn't as pretty as hers but I assure you, it tasted amazing!

-Has anyone tried any of the Pinterest "at home gel nail manicure" pins that are floating around? My friend, Kathryn, tried one the other night and she said she is loving it so far! Any tips from those of you that have tried it? What works? What doesn't?

-Mixed emotions for the South Carolina / Georgia game this weekend! Excited/scared/pumped/nervous all at the same time. Hoping we'll come away with the W!

  1. I posted about Moscow Mules and football today as well. A few weekends ago we both made white peach sangria from the same recipe. Are we the same person or are we just cocktailing in the same rotation?

  10. I'm intrigued by the at home gel manicure. Can't wait to hear your results! Love those little mini mimosas, too! Oh the things you find at World Market.

  11. Love all those mini's from World Market! I bought the Sensationnail Gel Kit and it's amazing! It was $35 and worth every penny. I just paint my nails like I usually would and use their top coat (with the light) on top. It lasts for over a week and takes 5 minutes to take off!

  13. OMG I want to be in that sunroom... relaxing with one of those adult beverages from World Market, ha! Random: but I was in Harris Teeter on my lunch hour and I saw the exact same fun 5 drink and it was almost triple the cost.

  15. Beautiful sunroom! I love Skinny Taste! I've made so many recipes from her and they're all so good! I made her arroz con pollo last night -- yum! Best part is its a one pot meal!

  16. That meal (even your salad) looks delicious!

    Can't wait to hear if the DIY gel manicure works for you. Have been eyeing it on Pinterest.
