Loving It Because It's Friday!

So, I didn't really have too many favorites this week. Not that it wasn't a good week, but nothing really rocked my socks. Well, aside from these cookies. But I haven't even tried them yet, so Idk how much of a favorite they can be. Maybe it should be Friday of Potential Favorites. Let's go with that so I can add more items!

1. I am UBER excited about trying these Peanut Butter Cookies from thegraciouspantry.com. Look at these puppies, LOOK AT IT! I wonder if the whole wheat pastry flour can be replaced with whole wheat flour. Or if you sift whole wheat flour it'll thin it out so it won't be as heavy. We'll find out. GET EXCITED!

2. Drake, Take Care
So, you know, haven't heard the album. I've heard the songs that have hit the radios like Headlines and Marvin's Room, The Motto. Big fan of EVERYTHING he's doing currently, so I assume I'm going to be really into his album. But it's like $15 on itunes. On the one hand, because I'm such a strong follower, I am almost certain the record is worth the $15. On the other hand...I feel like that price is high. So, I'm going to play the waiting game. Maybe it'll be a Christmas present?? (It's weird not having a picture or something)

3. Iphone 4s
I ORDERED IT!!! It's not arriving until December 9th. ALL the stores are out! I'm super excited. I got it in black, I hope I like it better than the white. The white seemed too...popular. Like everyone and their mom was going to have it. I'm unconvinced Siri is going to be vital to my life, but being able to email, BLOG, and track my running ALL through my phone!?!? Priceless! Clearly not priceless seeing as I dropped $200 on this mess. (Now you know why wack self won't pay that $15 for the Drake album. My bank account needs to recoup!) I'm super excited about this phone. Oh, you know who else was super excited about it though? Adonis! Lol. He was almost more excited than I was. I hope he knows I don't share.


4. Mac Miller, Blue Slide Park
I've been listening to a lot of Hip Hop recently. I am unsure why, it might make me feel extra cool. So, somehow I discovered Mac Miller. I enjoy his album lots, but not actually enough to call it a favorite. I think if I found him less attractive I would probably listen to it less, which is terrible because it would have absolutely NOTHING to do with his talent. Regardless, in my head this is what he looks like daily (see below) and I think he's really attractive in the thin-lipped, rough around the edges kind of way. I really enjoy people with thin lips sometimes. Again, this has NOTHING to do with his rapping ability. This is why I don't discuss certain music genres with people, I'm SO... illegitimate! To be more...legitimate I will say that I DO have a favorite track on the album. Missed Calls. I always enjoy tracks that are smooth and ride the line between rapping and singing. It's probably why I'm so drawn to Drake as an artist. I added the song below. Salud!

Loving It Because It's Friday!

aka Friday Favorites!

1. Everyone who is anyone knows that I have been wanting a Letterman's Jacket for AGES! And Drake, with his...RIDICULOUS self is answering my dream and dangling it outside of my reach at the same time! Check it:

OVO Tour Jacket!!! It's it NOICE!? *sigh* I want, I want, but look, it's only available in two places...neither of which are close to me! *double sigh*

2. Well we may as well stay on the Drake train! He released a new song...ish. I'm LOVING it! Check it:
Drake - The Motto Feat. Lil Wayne by octobersveryown
In fact, check out his whole blog. I do enjoy going there from time to time. (Errrday, errrday, errrday)

3. All things mini! Yesterday's post I mentioned I made mini-meat-loafs that were delicious even though the bottoms weren't completely solid. :/ But today, I took it to a whole new level and made...MINI PUMPKIN PIES!!! I stole the recipe from Bakerlla, down sized it, yet still had a dumb amount of pumpkin pie filling left over. These puppies were delicious and VERY dangerous. I thought making them smaller would curtail how much I ate. On the one hand, sure, on the other hand I've had four this evening. That's 1/3 of the batch I made. :/ Also, there is NOTHING clean about this recipe. Didn't even try. :/ -> :( (Haha, it's like I'm not even on the clean eating train right now! I am...) But, if you do want to cheat/reward yourself, THIS IS IT!

4. Also, the Hillbilly Housewife saved my life tonight. Did you know that if you need tomato juice, you can make a low sodium version using tomato paste and WATER! It's the little things that get me every time! Love, love, love!!!
