Friday Favorites



ONE. Wednesday night I went to my salon's grand opening with two of my favorite girlfriends. I now go to this salon for three different services. They are THAT amazing. I get my hair, lashes and I had microblading (post coming soon) done there. It was so much fun. They had wine, complimentary services (hair braiding, eyebrow waxing, make up and hair tutorials), product giveaways, discounts on products and so much more. Plus I got to spend time with my girlfriend which I haven't seen in forever it feels like.

TWO. As I mentioned above, I got my hair braided at the salon opening. When I checked in, they told me that my former hairstylist was going to do my hair. I haven't seen Marie in forever. The only reason I stopped seeing her was her schedule changed so much that I couldn't ever get in during a time that I was off of work.

I was able to catch up with Marie, she did a fantastic job on my top braid and she gave me advice on how to achieve a similar look for myself.

She used Bumble and Bumble Does it All Spray (I own this already) and she added in some Bumble and Bumble Nourishing Dry Shampoo. I bought this stuff because I can use it in my hair after the gym and it will soak up any sweat and greasy look. Plus it smells heavenly and I LOVE Bumble products.

THREE. I have been looking for new meal ideas and this week, Jen from The Lucky Lifestyle posted a chili recipe that she made and really liked. I have a chili recipe that I follow from my mom, but it isn't a crock pot recipe and who doesn't love a crock pot recipe? So I am making this tonight or when Rory gets back from his trip. I can't wait.

FOUR. Speaking of more recipes, Lindsay made a Pumpkin Marshmallow Frozen Pie recently and everything about it sounded right up my alley. I love pumpkin, marshmallows and cold pies (like chocolate cream, coconut cream, etc.). I really want to make this this weekend and would probably eat the whole thing myself, but I am thinking of bringing it over to my parents house when I have dinner with them on Saturday night. How good does this look?
