Friday Five

Happy Friday my friends! I am so ready for the weekend after a loooong week! Let’s do this, five things…


{one} I’m sort of in love with my new kimono from Target. It’s still pretty cold around here but it’s supposed to be in the 50s this weekend…so I’m totally praying for spring and no more snow! When I picked Hudson up from school yesterday he played with the tassels on the kimono and said “mommy is a princess”….and my heart just melted. We don’t talk about princesses at all so he must have picked that up from the girls at school. Smart boy.


{two} I made strawberry shortcake last night for dessert and it was so yummy. I use the recipe on the back of the bisquick box and it’s super easy. I can’t wait to have more tonight!


{three} How does this happen? My kitchen went from spotless to hot mess in 20 minutes last night. All I did was bring in the mail, make dinner (sloppy joes and asparagus) and the strawberry shortcake. #ihatedoingdishes


{four} Three words: Easter Hunt Eggs. Also know as Bunny Basket Eggs. My most favorite Easter candy since the beginning of time. They are kind of hard to find in the store because I’m probably the only person who likes them. So so good. 


{five} And I’ve got nothing. Let’s just end at 4, sound good? Happy Friday!


And now the link ups….

    I saw that pic of you on Instagram and fell in love with that kimono! It's practically spring in Texas now, but I'm going to have to scour our local Target to find that cute kimono! πŸ™‚

    I LOVE strawberry shortcake. It is one of my favorite desserts! Think I may have to make that this weekend! πŸ™‚

    Hope you have a great one!

    LOVE that kimono! SO cute! The perfect way to "spring" up an outfit:) And I feel the same way about my kitchen. I'll clean it up, and not five minutes later, it's trashed again. I guess it's the most used room in the house so that's why it always takes the brunt of every mess? I don't know. But I'd sure love to see it stay clean for longer periods of time!

    Happy Friday, sweet friend!:)

    I need a kimono in my life stat! And more Easter candy… But those eggs? I've never tried them!

    Oh that kimono looks so good on you! Super cute! And I'm with ya on dishes; really just dislike doing them too.

    Have a great weekend!

    I love the picture of your kitchen. Makes me feel much better, because I swear my kitchen does the same thing. Goes from clean and tidy, to what the heck just happened in here, in 10 minutes. Ugh! πŸ˜‰ Have a great weekend!

    That kimono looks adorable on you and go Hudson with the compliments-he's learning well! The same happens in my house with the kitchen, drives me nuts! Hope you have a good weekend!

    That is my favorite recipe for strawberry shortcake too!! So good.

    I am in love with that kimono and think I'm going to pick one up! We can be twins (except I'm not preggo)

    And that kitchen #reallife! Thanks for sharing that I'm not the only one with a mess

    LOVE the Kimono! I just picked up two at Target…they are perfect for bumps! πŸ™‚ And, I love that Hudson thinks you're a princess with your tassels…sweetest ever. Have a great weekend!

    I LOVE that kimono! I'm going to have to head to Target and get one!

    What a fun kimono! Also, I love your kitchen, mess though it may be in that picture! I wish mine was big enough to create that big of a mess in. I'm sure you have it all picked up by now, but you do make a good point – how does a kitchen get so messy so quickly?!

  19. Sara McCarty says

    Your kitchen is the EXACT same layout as mine and it gets so incredibly cluttered in the blink of an eye. I need more counter space! Or maybe just a cleaning fairy following me around picking up after me!

    I'm loving that kimono!! It looks amazing on you for sure. Super super cute.

    I am loving the kimono trend right now, and that one is perfect on you!

  23. Ashley Dorey says

    That kimono is amazing! Great colors! My kitchen is the same way, every single night. It's so frustrating because it always happens right before my husband gets home. I'm sure he thinks I never clean the kitchen, ha.

    Haha! I love how you ended with 4! This week seems to have been a doozy for a lot of us. Yet we all made time for dessert. πŸ™‚ Here's to happy weekend with lots of rest!

    That kimono!!! LOVE! I wish we had a target so badly.. #canadianproblems

    Are those easter candies the ones with the hard marshmallow in the middle? I used to hate those ones growing up, but I've grown to love them πŸ˜‰

    Hope you guys had a wonderful weekend! xo
