Friday Faves

 Good morning! My Faves this week are all about things I’ve been watching and listening to and I’m not mad about it!


1) Treason on Netflix I am always looking for shows to watch with Walt, his viewing “lane” is rather narrow. We watched this whole limited series in one evening. And he stayed awake! We both really enjoyed this one.

2) Friends Like These by Sarah Alderson I listened to this book on Audible. I really enjoyed it! It involves 2 women and social media. What could be better?? Ha, ha! I liked it.

3) Chimp Empire on Netflix Now hear me out. Some of my friends laughed at me about this. I had seen it advertised and I love animal shows, particularly about chimpanzees, monkeys, etc. They are fascinating. Chimp Empire did not disappoint. I watched with my son Harrison. It follows the chimps of Ngogo. Some of them were in their 30s and even 40s! Highly recommend!

4) Ed Sheeran The Sum of It All on Disney+ I stayed up too late to finish this one last night and had to put it in my Faves. Wow. I first heard him speak of it on American Idol and then again last night on Xtra before the ACMs. So I found it on Disney+ and watched the whole docuseries in one evening. I laughed a little and cried a lot! It was really good. He’s a little different than I thought, but a lot as I would have expected. Two thumbs up!

Have a great weekend! And Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms! I will actually get to see all three of my kids AND my future daughter and son in laws on Sunday with brunch in Nashville, and dinner in Dallas. This may never happen again, so I will cherish it! ❤️

  While I did get some random submissions for Faves this week (Larry’s will never happen), I remained on my own. 1) SHOWKOO Luggage Set  I got this luggage set for my upcoming trip (we leave Sunday) because I need to take the carry on and the duffle with me on the plane. I’m trying this duffle in lieu of my usual backpack. I’m excited about it, and hope it’s still a favorite after the trip! 2) Survivor Season 48  While it wasn’t our favorite season premiere, we LOVE Survivor in this house and we love watching it together! 3) Govee Lights  We recently added a bar in our house and my contractor made this light box and used Govee lights. We already have Govee lights around our TV so I was familiar with them and I love them! They can change colors, be put on a timer, etc., all from my phone. There’s a little glitch with this set, so they are going to be replaced, but they still make me squeal every time I walk into the room. 4) Shut the Box Game  My family, as usual...

  Finally home and settled from our Australia/New Zealand adventure. My Faves this week were awesome for me while traveling! 1) Power Plug Adapter  We have used many different plug adapters while traveling, but these were the best we have used! With one adapter we were able to charge everything and I could even curl my hair, ha, ha! Highly recommend! These were compatible in Australia/New Zealand, so I’m hopeful to find some for our next travel adventure, 2) Rothy’s Sneakers  I may have posted these before, but I love love love them when traveling. I own two pair and took them both with me.  3) One Step Behind by Lauren North  I listened to this book (and two others) while on this trip. I had never listened to a book by this author, and I really enjoyed the book. Unique plot for sure. 4) Coach Sling Bag  This might be my favorite of all Faves! I purchased this specifically for my trip to wear on tours/excursions, and I loved it! It has two zippered compartm...

Friday Faves Cabo Edition

Today I’m in Cabo, traveling with my little Andy for the first time. Doing my Faves while he naps.   1) The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia  I’m not even sure how I found this book, and it seems to be the first one she’s written, but it was SO good! I listened to it and there was a full cast of narrators so it was like a performance. Loved the ending! Thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. 2) happyhappyhouseplant on IG  This is my current favorite account on IG. Her name is Mandi Gubler and she is awesome! I literally do not have one live plant in my house, but I’m obsessed with her and almost feel like I could try one! What I like best about her is that her IG stories aren’t long, and she’s very informative and encouraging. Some people I follow go on and on and tell you every minute of their day. I don’t take the time to listen to those people anymore. Highly recommend @happyhappyhouseplant on IG! 3) Apple Watchband from Quince  I love this silver watchband. I...
