Friday's 5 Faves

1. My new trail/nut/pre-gym snack mix...Back to Nature Martha Vineyard mix.

2. New scent at Bath and Body Works...Dark Kiss.  Raspberry, plum, vanilla and amber?  Yes please.

3. Strawberry Shortcake...for whatever reason this is my most favorite warm weather dessert.  I generally have to order it whenever I see it on a dessert menu.  Matt and I just enjoyed a delicious one at California Pizza Kitchen.  I make it at home a lot too.  I'll post my favorite recipe on my Recipe Blog this weekend.


CPK's Strawberry Shortcake!

 4. Summertime!  Yes I know it's not officially summer, but considering the 90+ degree heat we've been having and the fact that all of my sun dresses are front and center in my closet, I've officially declared summer as being here.  I'm sure that in a month or so I'll be begging for the fall leaves, but for now I am enjoying swamp butt everytime I walk outside the heat.

5. A few good movies we have seen recently....Bridesmaids (not for the easily offended/grossed out, but H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S. nonetheless), True Grit (word of advice, when Hailee Steinfield and Jeff Bridges start riding off on Little Blackie at the end, get tissues), Something Borrowed (go with girlfriends, unless your husband/boyfriend likes Jon Krasinki's humor enough (or Kate Hudson's perfect derriere) to sit through a chick flick).

I feel like I need to put cake balls on here again (possibly next week too, or maybe for the rest of the summer) because we are seriously so addicted.  No telling what flavor combination I will come up with this weekend...
