Friday Favorites

 


So, in my continuing quest to discover new and FUN things to decorate my life ....


After Tom's eye appointment yesterday, I realized we weren't that far from a place called Cheesecake EmporiYUM.  

I followed Google Girl's directions to a non-descript area off the industrial district ... and into a little shop about the size of a walk-in closet.   Behind the curtain divider a young woman steps out ... big sunny smile.  "Good morning!"   I'd read Monique's story (you can click here) and knew I had to support her little one-woman enterprise.


"YUM" is right!   Despite having had lunch not an hour before, we each got an egg-roll and slice of cake to bring home.


Tom chose the soul-food egg roll and German Chocolate cheesecake.   Mine was chicken-fried rice (eggroll) and red velvet.

I was sure surprised when 'Mr. Picky Eater' declared he wants to go back for more eggrolls!

So happy when we got home to see UPS had been a-calling!

For a long time I've been promising myself to get new bed pillows, then in the end deciding it wasn't worth spending the money. 
Last week I finally I broke down and ordered these with some of my birthday money.


No lie, last night was the first time in years I didn't keep waking up to switch pillows or flip it to the cool side.  (And nope, even tho' I like what he stands for, Mike Lindell didn't ask me to say this.)

Look what was laying at the bottom of the box!




So, what's on your agenda today?
We need to go to the VA in a little bit to try and iron out some challenges with the travel desk.  (Ugh)

Then again, it's a brand-new sparkly day!  Who knows what reasons to smile lay ahead?

Have a good one, y'all ... be safe!

Hugs, Myra
