Friday Fave Five & Blog Hop

Welcome to the Friday Fave Five weekly post and blog hop where I link up to Mom’s Got Mail!

fridayfavefivebloghop-300x300Favorite Food:

How was everyone’s Memorial Day weekend? My favorite part was eating so much delicious BBQ! Saturday night the fiance and I headed to a friends house for food, drinks, fun, and a firepit too! Hmmm. Ribs.

BBQ

And Monday we had an impromptu barbecue with the fiance’s rents complete with steak, potatoes, corn, and grilled veggies plus watermelon.

Last night I got to see my hometown friend for her last week of work celebration, my work out buddy turned good friend, and a couple of old co-workers too! Fun to catch up with everyone! While we were out, I tried a new beer at Granary Tavern – delish strawberry beer called Abita!

Favorite Fashion Find:

Would you believe I did not shop at all this week? Packing up for a big move makes you realize you already have way too much stuff! But that doesn’t mean I cant lust over this Sunchecked Shirtdress via anthropologie.com.

Favorite in Entertainment:

My first thought would be Mad Men, which just had their mid-season finale last weekend! But I am going to say Black Mass, the Johnny Depp movie about Whitey Bulger, because they are filming outside my apartment as we speak! Here is a lil peek of one of the props (an old fashioned cop car) from last night. This makes me a. stressed about moving because where the heck is the moving van going to park tomorrow and b. makes me realize I am going to miss the chaos of my current hood!

Favorite Sale:

If you guys need anything from headbands for your work outs to a baby shower gift, to a light summer scarf and stud earrings to gift to your friend for her b-day, head over to babybumpbundle.com and use code springsale25! There are lots of goodies for pregnant moms, baby, and nursing new moms, but there are also options for non-preggers gals too!  Go to Buy A Bundle for the gift boxes or Shop Products for everything for sale individually. And I also have a shop on Bumblebean worth a look: https://www.bumblebean.com/shop/baby-bump-bundle

    Ok-first, great post this week! The ribs look amazing.

    I know what you mean about too much stuff. For me it is part subscription boxes and part lack of time to organize. Now that the weather is nice, I have been spending free time outside and the clutter is piling up. I need some rainy days to get me refocused!

    After living in southern California for a few years, I don’t miss tv/movie sets at all! It is pretty cool that you saw one, though. Have you seen Johnny Depp yet?

    I found your blog through the link up. I checked your blog out last week and didn’t realize you were in Mass. too!

    I’m on a big cleanout of all of our extra “stuff”. I think I’m going to have to start putting stuff on ebay again.

    I like your fave food, BBQ is always great. I would add dark chocolate as a fave. That dress is pretty, I don’t have a fave in fashion right now. Thank you for sharing your faves.

    […] post that received the most clicks overall last week was Michelle’s from Eat and Sip in the City.  I enjoyed reading her post last week, especially about the movie set that was being filmed […]
