TGIF!

To say I’m happy to see Friday again would be an understatement!

Right now it is June and I am in Florida, which means there is a LOT of rain.  So much, in fact, there is a lake in my front yard and a river in the back.  I love LAKES AND RIVERS and this would be great if I had waterfront property.

But ALAS I do not.

However… I am a happy girl because I GET to NOT go to the office for TWO WHOLE DAYS in a row.

To celebrate Friday, it is all about my Favorites this week.  Let me start with this text from my sister.  Apparently Gina saw this and it reminded her of me.

Favorite #ONE

She knows me well… I could not agree more!

Then there is the Icing on the Carrot Cake.  Because LB has to have a dessert EVERY night, and because the only boxed cake mix I had in the pantry was carrot, I made a cake from a mix and topped it with a homemade cream cheese frosting.

Favorite #TWO

My Favorite Cream Cheese Frosting recipe is the frosting recipe for the Carrot Cake Trifle that I found here.              It contain : 8 ounces cream cheese ( softened )
1 1/2 stick butter ( softened )
3 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla

To use it in the trifle, fold in 16 ounces of cool whip.

Schmear this on any cake and you will be a happy camper!

Favorite # THREE

This is a good product.  I’ve used it twice now and already see a difference.  You can read more about this MK charcoal mask here.

Favorite # FOUR

This week I joined the ranks of the fitness community and purchased a FitBit Flex 2 Activity Tracker .  It was delivered to the house today and I am charging it right now.  I am so excited about my new favorite toy!  I’ve already taken a whole 68 steps (I’m so proud) and I didn’t even break a sweat!

Favorite # FIVE

My Cat Elvis

Featured in two of my posts this week, Elvis is my Very Special Fur Baby and DEARLY LOVED (by myself and my allergic LB).  Who could resist him?
