Holy moly, you guys. It’s Friday and in just a few short hours I will be on my way to Orlando with my best friend Alex! I really don’t think you could pay me to stop smiling!
Hopefully your week was filled with plenty of favorite moments or things you are dying to share at the bottom of this post. Because that’s how we do Fridays around here. (Don’t forget there is a link-up too!)
Let’s get right to it and kick off the weekend with a party, shall we?
Friday Favorites #26: Week of 2/28
• Yes To Cucumbers facial towelettes
You may have seen me feature Yes To products on the blog before. After falling in love with the brand, I have accepted a title of being a Yes To Girl and receive a shipment of products every now and then to share with you.
Just so you know, all Yes To products are ninety-five percent all-natural, recyclable, and free of parabens, sulfates (both SLS + SLES), and phthalates. All five sub-brands (Yes To Cucumbers, Yes To Blueberries, Yes To Carrots, etc.) are made from real fruits and vegetables and only use organic ingredients. (You can see why I’m a fan!)
My must-have product for my face lately has been the facial towelettes. While I like all of the Yes To facial towelettes, the Yes To Cucumber hypoallergenic soothing wipes are my favorite.
I love that just visited a spa cucumber scent!
• Girl Scout cookies
I was doing so good avoiding this year’s sales of Girl Scout cookies until the cutest group of girls showed up in the lobby of our arena last week. Yeah… I have no will power here.
Something different, however, is what Scott and I know as Caramel DeLites are called Samoas up here. The same goes for Peanut Butter Patties (Tagalongs), Shortbread (Trefoils), and Peanut Butter Sandwich (Do-si-dos)! It’s funny how the names change regionally.
• sporty tumblers
They finally arrived! Scott and I have a friend over at Tervis and every once and a while he surprises us with goods. He’s actually one of their graphic designers and helps put together the designs that go on the sports cups!
Knowing we are both sports fans, he ever so graciously sent us two Super Bowl XLVIII Championship tumblers (Go Seahawks!) and a Detroit Pistons water bottle. I just love those tumblers. Thanks, Rusty!
• hair, skin, nails tablets
I have been meaning to regularly take biotin supplements ever since my hair dresser suggested doing so years ago. I used to be great at it, then got over the whole having to take a pill every day thing.
To make sure I get my multivitamin, I have been bypassing the pills and enjoying Adult Gummies instead! From the same company, I received these NatureMade VitaMelts biotin chewable tablets and LOVE them. They are actually really good and I find myself wanting to take them every morning.
Three cheers for healthy hair, skin and nails!
• country music
I don’t know if this is the Southern girl in me or what, but I have been channeling into country music stations a lot this week. It has been forever since I have listened to it consistently, so I couldn’t tell you half of the songs I heard, but I still enjoyed it anyways!
• sweet potato tortilla chips
Okay, this one is actually a love/hate relationship. While stocking up on my normal chip needs last week, I stumbled upon these Garden of Eatin’ Sweet Potato corn tortilla chips and had to give them a try.
Garden of Eatin’ has easily become my favorite brand of Non-GMO, organic, gluten-free corn tortilla chips. As much as I love chips and salsa, I could eat these on their own all day, every day.
Needless to say, I finished the entire bag on my own within a day and a half. That’s the hate part… I might be a little too obsessed.
• dancing throwbacks
I found this gem along with pages of others while browsing for photos of my Orlando Magic dancing days this week.
In preparation for the reunion this weekend, I shared my favorite experiences and a ton of photos yesterday!
Reminiscing old times is something that never gets old to me. Now you go!
Happy Friday! 😀
Anna-Marie @BeautyandtheBeets
I am going to look for those Vitamelts later today- I need to be taking a biotin supplement!!
Heather
I really have been loving them! Let me know if you try! 🙂
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake
I am obsessed with Tervis tumblers… we practically got a whole cabinet full of ’em!
Heather
We may or may not have a strong collection of 10 or so going on… and I may or may not be eying more. Whoops!
Jess @dearhealthyness
Samoas, they are the evil lovely cookies that I can sit with a pack and eat at least 5 :D! Have a nive weekend in Orlando!! Warm weather 😉
Emma @ Life's A Runner
I NEVER take my vitamins unless they are gummies! I try…but the kid versions are just so much better. 🙂
Annnd, I’m officially jealous of your girl scout cookies. Since we live in a building, there are no cookie deliveries of any kind. 🙁
Have a great Friday!

Yay for country music!! It will definitely always be my favorite :). Also, those sweet potato chips look fantastic!
Miranda @ Loving Every Mile
It’s funny how the Girl Scout cookie names that are new to you are the ones that I grew up with in Seattle! I was a Girl Scout since 1st grade and I’ve always gone by Trefoils, Samoas, Tagalongs, Dos-I-Dos, etc! Those sweet potato tortilla chips look so good!
Runner Girl Eats
I def know them as tagalongs and samoas. I get so thrown off when I see other names! I am also a big country music fan…but mostly in the summer. For some reason country just makes me feel like drinking a sweet tea by the pool 🙂
Diana
YASZ to Girl Scout Cookies! Samoas are my weakness.
I want to check out the facial towelettes and the vitamelts.

I love sweet potatoes but haven’t tried them in chip from before. Yum!
