Can you believe I’ve actually stuck with these Friday posts this long? Two whole months? It might be a record! Anyway, I’m sharing my favorites below – but since it’s the last Friday of the month, it’s also your turn to link up! You don’t need to share a blog post if you don’t have one – you can also link up an Instagram photo of something you loved this month.
Updated to add: #teamblueandblack – in case you wondered my stance on the “The Dress.”
Let’s get to it! {affiliate links included}

This post by Lindsey Nobles. Because I saw this photo all over the interwebs around IF:Gathering time and never in a million years would have thought this amazing woman was thinking all these thoughts that I think in my own head. You followed that, right? Good.
This recap of the #llamadrama from yesterday is hilarious. You’ll have to let me know which llama image is your favorite 😉
Watch
The Voice – I usually stop watching after the blind auditions, but I really do love this show. I love the chemistry between the judges, the bantering, the raw, ridiculous talent that tends to come out of 15 year olds and 40 year olds and I love that they’re never once chosen because of how they look.
The Amazing Race – I joked on my friend Deidra’s Facebook wall that I would participate in this show if they ever came out with “The Amazing Stroll” – the version where you leisurely tour a few fabulous countries and eat lots of yummy food. But I don’t mind sitting on my sofa with a snack watching other people run around like crazy! This season half the teams are existing couples and the other half literally met at the starting line. I don’t see this ending well.
YouTube Kids – I am LOVING this new app – all the best parts about video content for kids on YouTube without all the trash and stuff I don’t want my kiddo to see. Watch the video to learn more, or you can head to the App Store or Google Play to download the free app.
Boots No.7 Beautiful Skin Hydration Mask – this winter is wreaking my skin, y’all. There isn’t a moisturizer on the market that will stop the itchy and there is nothing worse than grabbing your towel at Zumba to dry the sweat off your face and it burns because DRY SKIN. So I’m trying this. Will report back and let you know if it lives up to the hype. And by hype I mean I randomly found it at Target.
Listen
Audible – Because I rarely have time to sit down and read a book anymore, but I can definitely listen to an audiobook while I work or drive! Multi-tasking WIN! Plus, when you sign up to try it for 30 days (free!) you’ll also get 2 free audiobooks. I mean, that’s awesome, right? Click this link to Try Audible and Get Two Free Audiobooks

Alright – kept it short & sweet this week so you could link up! Come show me what I missed and what you loved this month!

Do you know how Tinker Bell collects lost things? My lost things are the randomly found things in Target. They need a home 🙂 Love those clearance end-of-the-aisle shelves.
Yes! I love that..lol..I do the same thing with those Target clearance items 😉
I’m looking forward to hearing about the hydration mask. It’s not cold where I live (Vegas), but it’s crazy dry and lately my eyelids have turned to sandpaper.
I haven’t gotten into the Voice yet, but Christina A. was on The Tonight Show this week, and her impressions were hilarious!
Oh girl – go get it. It’s amazing. My face has never felt happier. Now I’m wondering if I could use it on my legs…. #dearwinterpleaseleaveokaybye
Thanks Crystal. The comments on the post both encourage me (we obviously aren’t alone) and make me sad (why don’t know that we are enough). Appreciate you.
Sometimes just knowing we aren’t alone is what makes us brave enough to keep running in our own lane. Your post did that for me 🙂
I love The Amazing Race! My husband and I wanted to apply as the “Multi-Cultural Newlyweds,” but we couldn’t figure out how to take 6 weeks off of work at the time. We should’ve done it. We haven’t started this yet. I’m still a little miffed at last season’s winners.
How fun would that be! You should totally do it – maybe they just need a “blogger” version 😉
Downton is wrecking me. Anna is in jail? Tom is going to Boston. I’m not ready for it to be over.
I gave up on Downton. I couldn’t handle all the emotions every week! But Anna is in jail!? What? I might need to read some recaps to figure out what’s going on!
I always love reading your Friday Favorites posts…I’m glad you’re doing the linkup because it’s a fun one to write, too! And I have ALWAYS wanted to be on the Amazing Race…though I do think your variation of it sounds awesome, too! Happy weekend, friend. 🙂
Girl you would ROCK the Amazing Race! I hope you do it sometime 🙂
