friday thangs

So I'm officially back in action with a "Friday thangs" post!!! For those of you who forgot and those who are new around here, these posts are completely random and mostly just contain the current thoughts/obsessions in my Katy brain. So, without further adieu…

1. Warby Parker glasses. Yes, that's right, new reading glasses are my cool obsession of the moment. I am, in fact, a little old lady in the body of a twentysomething. Anywho, my parents gave me a gift card to Warby Parker for Christmas and so I naturally spent hours pouring over their glasses selection and picking my top five for my free in-home try on. The top five are pictured above. In case you are interested in purchasing from Warby Parker, from top to bottom: Preston, Downing, Ainsworth, Duckworth, Fillmore. I ultimately decided on Duckworth and ordered them a couple days ago. It's embarrassing how excited I am over a pair of reading glasses.

2. Lululemon vinyasa scarves. My sister gave me one of these for Christmas and I've been wearing it daily. No joke. In fact, I'm thisclose to just sleeping in the dang thang. When I first heard of these scarves, I thought the price was a little much. And, yeah, it is. But now, I get it. In fact, I may or may not have just purchased another in a new color. Yikes.

3. How I Met Your Mother. So the BF and I watched the entire series (yes, that's right…all eight seasons) last summer. And now? This final season is out. of. control. Roughly five weeks in to this season the BF thought there is no way they could stretch out the entire season to take place in one weekend. But, sure enough, they are. And I love it. I'm so antsy for episodes to resume next Monday!

4. Jif Whips! As a self-proclaimed peanut butter addict, I'm obviously obsessed with this stuff. It's basically what it sounds like…whipped peanut butter. It's a lot lighter than regular peanut butter and has less calories. I've been eating this stuff every morning slathered on a banana. Soooo good. I wish they made this stuff back when I was in college and dominated some peanut butter and pretzels for dinner on a regular basis. Probably would've kept off those college pounds a bit more effectively. So far, I've just tried the regular flavor, but the others are sounding pretty tempting! Peanut butter chocolate? Yup!

5. Are you watching the new Bachelor? I'm loving it. All of the classic Bachelor requisites: emotional drunk girl who cries the first night, weird stunts that make everyone cringe (I'm looking at you girl who wore a fake pregnant belly), girls who already claim to be in lurrve. What more could you want?

6. Happy Endings! Last TV thing, I promise! On New Year's Day, we got sucked into a major Happy Endings marathon on VH1. I've never really watched the show, but oh. my. goodness. It is heelarious! So underrated! Go watch it. Trust. You won't regret it.

7. Finally, these cookies. I have no reason to make them, but I think I will anyway. Because houndstooth.

That's all for now folks. Have a great weekend and stay warm!
