Friday Favorites: Best Glasses from Warby Parker, Pumpkin Bread and Pancakes, Good Sandwich, Best Sheath Dress and Good Chef/Better Person

Friday is here! Back today to link up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for Friday Favorites. Here's what I am finding Joy in this week.

1) Grilled brie, turkey and dried cherries:

I mentioned earlier this week I am working on some Good easy dinners to help with the nights there is a lot of homework. Tuesday night we had grilled sandwiches to order with organic tomato soup (thank you Trader Joe's). I decided I wanted something a little different, so I made a grilled turkey and brie on gluten free bread and then added some dried cherries, they were actually cherry infused Craisins. It was so Good. I will be adding this to my easy dinner and lunch rotation all fall.

What's Up Wednesday September 2017

Why hello end of September. Where did you come from? Since this is the last Wednesday of the month I am linking up with Mel, Shaeffer, and Shay to share What's Up Wednesday!

What We're Eating This Week

Monday-Shrimp tacos
Tuesday-Grilled cheese to order, tomato soup
Wednesday-Pork tenderloin with Tatefully Simple Slow Cooker Sauce
Thursday-Chicken pesto pasta
Friday-Pizza night

or Plan B---There is a lot of homework in our house lately, so I am also trying really hard to keep some really easy and healthy options on hand in case homework takes priority over dinner. A couple of nights last week we had grilled cheese sandwiches on really Good, crusty bread (including gluten free for me) with some pre-made organic tomato soup. Even a soup and sandwich can be made the Good Better Best way!

An Eye for Fall Fashion with Warby Parker

A chill is in the air, you have a PSL in hand and the leaves are crisping under your feet, finally it's fall. You have a new pair of booties, a blanket scarf and maybe a comfy sweater for the new season, but when was the last time you updated your eyeglasses? That's right, how many years have you been wearing the same old glasses?

Recently I came across the Concentric Collection from Warby Parker and they are the Best option for fall. Warby Parker is the ultimate disruptor in the eyewear industry bringing their customers fashionable and durable eyewear at a fraction of the cost of traditional eyeglass stores. I am a big fan of Warby Parker and wear their Annette style every day. Frankly, after owning their glasses for almost two years, I think I am a Warby Parker customer for life.

Friday Favorites: New Technology, Best Fall Shirt, Best Example of Friendship, Bobbi Brown on Sale, and My New Fall Bag

Hello Friday it's good to see you! Back today to link up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for Friday Favorites. Here's what I am finding Joy in this week.

1) New technology:

On Labor Day weekend, my laptop died. I am talking "blue screen of death" died. This lovely malfunction happened just as school was starting and just when I had some very fun posts planned. 

Don't worry, those fun posts are still coming because I did get a swanky new laptop. Since my old laptop was almost eight years old and one I never really loved in the first place, Running Daddy urged me just to bite the bullet and get a new one. So far so Good one this and I am so happy to be back up and running.

Friday Favorites: Champagne Gummies, Bell Sleeves, Chip and Joanna are coming to Target, Best Pullover

It's Friday and what a week! I have been gone most of the week on a work trip, but now the weekend is here and it's time to link up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for Friday Favorites. Here's what I am finding Joy in this week.

1) Champagne Dreams Brut & Rose Gummies

I was in Target this week on my trip and found these very fun gummies. I bought a pack for Running Daddy and myself. I thought it would be fun to pop them open this weekend as a treat. Has anyone else tried these?

***Even though I work at Target in Government Affairs, all opinions are my own

Workin' It Wednesday--Transitioning Your Fall Wardrobe

Today I am linking up with Shay & Erika for their Workin' It series. Today's topic is Transitioning our Fall Wardrobe.

The weather around here is feeling a little like early fall sooner than usual but it could warm up any day. It's the time of year to start putting away the summer clothes and slowly pulling out the early fall items. Here's how I go about getting my wardrobe ready for fall.

Friday Favorites: Pray for Texas edition

I am linking up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for Friday Favorites, but today I won't be talking about my favorite wine, fall fashion or my new favorite show. Today we just need to talk about Texas, because these people need our help, they need some Good in their life.

1) Donate:

There are all kinds of ways to help. There are the big charities such as Red Cross and Salvation Army who do amazing things. The New York Times has a great list of local charities who are on the ground and have the Best reputations. Our family choose The Texas Diaper Bank  as diapers are typically not included in standard emergency relief kits. We are also planning to donate to one of the animal rescue organizations in either Houston or San Antonio this weekend. My employer just announced a fund to help our fellow team members that they will match dollar for dollar and I donated to that today. Even if you just empty out your change jar and donate what's in there, every amount helps.
