What an easy Post… Friday Favorites is a collection of things I’ve enjoyed this week that I want to share with you! From love notes to delectable dishes, I hope you have experienced some of the same…
Favorite # ONE
Morning love notes written on my breakfast napkin
I don’t know if it was breakfast or lunch, but at some point when we came to live together, LB set a table for me and wrote a love note on my napkin. It made such an impression on me that he hasn’t stopped. I get a breakfast note every morning and I have been saving them for 5+ years. Precious.
Favorite # TWO
This Rock-A-Billy Jive Dance by Marty & Miss Dee. Music by the Cues.
LB and I took a 6 week dance lesson early this year in preparation for the Rock-A-Billy Prom that took place in February (more about this next year). This couple has inspired me to learn dance more than any I’ve found on YouTube. If you can find better… I challenge you to submit.
If this doesn’t make you want to get up and dance, I don’t know what will!
Favorite # THREE
Grits
Sunday morning found me out of town and checking out of a hotel room to head for home. Because the continental breakfast in the hotel was not worth… whatever… LB and I went to the Gypsy Cab Co. for brunch. If you have never enjoyed an Eggs Benedict Brunch, get out and go enjoy one. Typically you will have a choice of hash browns or grits for a side. I do not want to discount the Eggs Benedict in any way whatsoever, but when I dipped into the little bowl filled with grits (plain grits, no cheese) I was taken home. SO GOOD! Does anyone else appreciate grits? You can’t get this from a Quaker packet. I Declare that my Favorite # Three this week was my Grits Experience. Yeah.
Favorite # FOUR
I’m going to sound like a PIG after the whole GRITS thing, but… another favorite is the box of Dunkin’ Donuts Munchkins that was presented to my group this week. I am a perpetual dieter, so bear with me as I ask… WHEN was the last time I had a munchkin????? OR a donut for that matter?
Since life is short, I let myself enjoy several of these little delights this week. Believe it or not, blueberry, not chocolate, was my favorite. Thank you for the Munchins. This girl really enjoyed them!
Favorite # FIVE
You will be hard pressed to find me not having this little Lovely as one of my Favorites. Once again, my sweet Mama has captured a moment as she typically does. This precious little GlamBaby is expressing herself in song. We have no idea what is the name of this song, but [as my Mama explained] Lydia knows. Although it is likely the opening song to Peppa Pig or Curious George, I like to think it is her own sweet rendition of “How Great Thou Art”
I haven’t figured out how to properly present this yet… but you must see this little musician in the making…

Grits! Love them! We visit St.Augustine a couple times a year but have not been to Gypsy Cab Co. Will try it next time.
I really like your postings on St.Augustine. I am contemplating buying a second home there.
Have a fun holiday!

I love St. Augustine and we are there every other weekend. We may eventually move there. Everything there has been worth writing about. Enjoy your holiday Debora!
