Friday Favorites – May Edition

Happy Friday gang!

I am so excited to see the skyline of NYC tomorrow afternoon! I haven’t been back to the city since New Years and four months away is far too long! The first order of business is a Soul Cycle class to help combat jet lag and give us some much-needed energy before drinks and dinner!

Enjoy this week’s edition of Friday Favorites, including recipes, articles, posts and other items that caught my eye this week.

Perfectly portable, I’ve whipped up a few different types of energy balls, but this list of 28 different recipes inspired me to try more creative recipes like PB&J Energy Bites!

While many of Grace’s posts feature items that are far outside my fashion budget, I loved this week’s under $100 Summer fashion roundup. How cute are the sunglasses and that clutch?

These empathy cards help you find the words for even the most difficult situations and allow you to let them the person who is ill know you’re thinking about them.

You know that imaginary list of people, typically famous, with whom you’d love to share a glass of wine or dinner? As I’ve followed her journey on Instagram and her blog, I’ve stated more than once to Bo that I’d love to share a glass of wine and evening in the kitchen with Andie. Her food is beautiful, accessible, and her writing always resonates. Andie’s latest recipe reminds me just how creative salads can be! The 15 Minute Spring Zucchini Ribbon Salad screams Summer and has me wanting to make this for dinner one night when we’re staying with my sister-in-law next week!

Now you can make Chipotle’s guacamole from the comfort of your kitchen! I pinned this earlier this week after missing out on Cinco de Mayo festivities due to Geneva’s utter lack of Mexican food.

It’s like Tina knew that my iPhone is constantly screaming “storage space low” when I try to download new applications or take more HDR pictures. The new PhoneExpander app, while not cheap, is going to be a lifesaver if it works!

It’s not easy to escape marathon FOMO when so many of my close friends are running Fall Marathons. Charlie’s latest post reminded me that I can enjoy running, regardless the distance. And hey, let’s get real, I still have plenty of physical and mental progress to make as I continue training for shorter distances.

An eye-opening, important read for any women who frequent nail salons. This will make me think twice before I tuck into an unreasonably cheap nail salon during my next trip to London or New York.

Since the open office floor plan often gets in the way of my productivity, I’ve been sporting my favorite headphones on a daily basis. This chill Spotify playlist has been on repeat and yes, the title is correct, as I’ve found myself humming and singing during the workday. Oops.

Faking the 80-hour work week and why faking it may be a good thing.
