Friday Favorites

This post contains affiliate links.

Good Friday morning to you friends, I hope that you had a wonderful week. Did any of you wake up to snow this week? I heard from a few friends in NH that there was the possibility of snow. I am sure they are not happy but I have to be honest, I would have loved a little snow, I feel as if I blinked and missed winter. In any case Spring will be back to its regular schedule all over the country in just a few days.

Grab your cup if coffee, chocolate or wine and get ready to settle in and enjoy all of my favorites from the week.

Food

Always start with dessert first, I think that is a rule somewhere, or at least it short be. If you like to bake or make sweet treats on the weekend you might want to try these No-Bake Raspberry Margarita Tarts.

This recipe for Carmelized  Onion Dip, looks delicious and perfect for summer gatherings.

Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits, would be perfect to serve for Mother’s Day brunch.

Books

Ann of Our New Vista blog recommended The Last Bookshop in London. I haven’t read it yet but it is on my list.

I am currently reading Say Yes To Life by Victor Frankl, he is also the author of one of the best books I have ever read Man’s Search for Meaning. I read Man’s Search for Meaning over 30 years ago and I reread it at least once every 2 years. Have you read it?

I pre-ordered The Unwinding . 

I loved, loved, loved,  Miss. Bensons Beetle, by the author of one of my all time favorite books The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.

If you are looking for a book to read you can find all of the books that I have recommended here on the blog on My Bookshop Pinterest Board.Or simply click on My Bookshop on the sidebar and you will be taken to the Pinterest board.

Finds

I shared  a couple of weeks ago and it finally arrived, it is beautiful! I ordered a small and it it fits perfect on the top, it is very roomy from the top down and very comfortable and it has pockets!  My only concern is that it is 100% cotton and I wonder how it will wash. I ordinarily would not have spent this much on a summer dress but I fell in love with the pattern and I did receive $50.00 off during the sale. This  is another one by Farm Rio that I really like.

If you are looking for dresses for summer look no further thanthey are having a sale 40% off most dresses and there are several that look comfy for summer. Andhas some beautiful ones as well.

What did you make this week? Healthy salads? Soups? Or something sweet?

Did you read a good book that we need to know about?

Did you watch a great movie or listen to a new podcast?

If so please share! Have a wonderful and safe weekend my friends.
