Friday Loves

Hi guys! Happy Friday to you all! You have conquered another week, congratulations! Sorry for not posting our loves last Friday...we were both getting all settled into college. But we have some exciting things to share (as always) with you all.

Chalkboard Art: If you all remember, Mo mentioned the chalkboard wall that is in her house, and she and her roomies have gotten much use from it. Mo purchased this piece, which was originally a gold and white abstract design, for about $12 from TJMaxx. She decided she wasn't crazy about it, so she painted it with the leftover chalkboard paint. The piece looks so much cuter as a chalkboard and is more versatile. Chalkboard paint is such an easy, and fairly inexpensive, way to liven up any piece of furniture, wall, or accessory. Hands down, we love this stuff.

And we obviously love this quote.

Drink: Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks. Can we just say how super excited we are because we both have a Starbucks that is only 5 minutes away from us and not an hour?! And we definitely have been taking advantage of it. The Chai Tea K-Cups are very good, however, nothing beats a real Starbucks!

Scent: Lavender. Mo has been wanting a lavender candle for months, and her lovely mother surprised her with one. This particular candle is from a candle shop in the mall in our hometown, but you can find these anywhere. It did not come decorated, Mo just had some time on her hands, and a hot glue gun...lol. We absolutely love anything lavender-scented because it is so relaxing and delicate.

Fast food: As you know Kat is attending Middle Tennessee State and they have a new student union center that is absolutely amazing! It has an awesome potato bar, salad bar, mexican restaurant, Popeye's, Dunkin' Donuts, and Kat's favorite, PANDA EXPRESS! 

Purchase: The thing to do around "the Boro" is ride bikes. So, of course Kat purchased an awesome red and gold vintage Shwinn! Its absolutely lovely! Its so much fun to get a group of people out riding bikes around town. (& good exercise too)

Guilty Pleasure: After a stressful day of classes and studying its good to sit back, take a break, and have some Ben & Jerry's! Cherry Garcia being Kat's favorite!!!
