Happy Friday! I hope you guys are having a great last day of your work week. I love getting to end the week with my Friday Five. Here’s what I’m loving this week:
1. Fluffy cows! They’re a real thing. Have you heard about them before? I’m obsessed. Apparently any cow can look like this if groomed properly. Cows are Josh’s favorite animal and we would totally be buying one of these if a) they weren’t $75,000 and b) we didn’t live in an apartment with no outdoor space.
2. Look: it’s Carl from UP! This movie always makes me think of my Dad. I miss him so much. We saw this movie together and it’s his favorite. It’s one of my favorite movies too with such a sweet story.
3. Last weekend J.Crew outlets and Banana Republic’s regular stores were an additional 50% off clearance. I love a good sale and these cute clothes. They just came in the mail today and I love them all.
4. Networking Tips for Introverts <— I read this blog post the other day and was really impressed by the networking tips (And I think they’re good for everyone, both introverts and extroverts). I learned a lot about ways I can improve my networking and things I need to be doing both professionally and personally to maintain healthy relationships.
5. Josh and I met up with Hannah for our first Jazz on the Green concert. I love Midown Crossing and all the fun stuff there is to do there. We got to chat over drinks, food, and good tunes. A kindly balloon man passing by also tasked us with guarding a Ninja Turtle balloon animal. We tried valiantly, but the crowded venue and strong wind kept the turtle from seeing another day.
Questions of the Day: What are you loving lately? Any fun plans this weekend? I’m volunteering for my first race! I can’t wait!
I’ve never seen cows looking like that! Fluffy always equals adorable, doesn’t it?
I’m going to read that networking article. I could use some help in that area for sure!
Fluffy does always equal adorable! haha
I hope you found the networking article useful. I know I did!
fluffy cows?! omg adorable! not a ton of plans this weekend for us which i enjoy 🙂
I hope you enjoyed your relaxing weekend! I’m planning one of those for us soon!
I’ve never once seen a fluffy cow lol
I want one so badly!
Oh my gosh, that picture of your Dad! (((hugs))))
Oh that’s not my dad. Just a picture of a grandpa that’s circulating the web that looks exactly like Carl from UP. 🙂
Oh my gosh… those fluffy cows are sort of adorable!
I love them!
I need that fluffy cow. Now! I wonder if I can convince my fiance to let us have one once we get our own house? ; )
Please do and then send me lots of pictures!! 😀
I can’t believe how awesome that cow is . . . I want one so bad!
Me too! haha
Totally checking out the networking tips for introverts!!
I hope you find it as useful as I did!
Haha! I love the 5th one…. poor Ninja Turtle! 🙁 I had a great time with you guys! It was the perfect way to spend an evening. Also… fluffy cows?? I had no clue! I now want one as well! 😉
We need to find a farm with fluffy cows so we can go visit!
… and plot ways to steal one.
YES!! Let’s do it!! 😉
Fluffy cows???? Maybe I do need to move to the Midwest…
You totally should! 😀 It’s pretty awesome here!
Gee, I wonder if all cows looked that that people would be less inclined to eat them? So cute! Thanks for the link to Networking for introverts. I am, so I’m sure it will be helpful.
Josh and I were talking about that! I don’t eat cows but want to even less after seeing how cute they are all groomed and fluffy!
Fluffy cows exist? I never knew that! How adorable are they?
The Carl look-a-like is pretty ridiculous. I can’t believe he is not affiliated with Pixar or a cartoonist for them somehow. He looks spitting image, just like him. My daughter’s been watching that movie a lot lately.
I wish I had got the heads up on the BR J-crew outlet sale. I could use some new threads.
I’m sorry I didn’t share about the sale earlier! I write my posts a day ahead (so Friday’s post is written on Thursday) and didn’t find out about the sale until Friday mid-morning.
That cow… I want one too!!! But i face similar barriers. 🙂
Up is one of my favorites. I cried like a little baby.
I bawled during the montage of Carl and Ellie. So sweet and heartbreaking at the same time.
OMG that cow! I spent all my summers on my grandpa’s dairy farm, if I only knew cows could be so fluffy I would’ve had a field day attempting to groom them. Hahaha.
I want a fluffy cow so badly! haha
Never thought I’d type this in a blog comment…but that cow is adorable 🙂
Totally random but I’m loving me some fluffy cows ha ha
Nothing big on the plans for the weekend, perhaps a trip to our local art museum (has indoor and outdoor parts) that is totally free!
I hope you enjoyed your trip to the art museum! And that cow seriously is adorable! haha
AHHH fluffy cows! I need one! Too adorable! That Jazz on the green concert looks fun. Thanks for linking up, hope you enjoy your weekend! xo
Fluffy cows are the cutest!
Haha, what fun things! Never saw fluffy cows before and the resemblance between your dad and the guy rom up is uncanny! Have a great weekend Erin! #friday5
Thanks Meranda! I should have written it better, that guy isn’t my dad but some random guy I found online that looks exactly like Carl from Up. My dad is bald, but much younger! haha
Those cows are so cute and fluffy!! I need to read that networking tips for introverts post. thanks for sharing!
I hope you liked the article! And aren’t those cows adorable?
OMG! I can’t believe how much he looks like Carl!! How cute. That’s one of my favorite Disney movies.
I know! I want to meet that guy!
I thought the cow picture was fake until I started reading the post, wow! I have been around cow all my life and I have never seen one like that, and had no idea. I’m half tempted to ask my sister to put a cow on her farm property just so we can make it fluffy, LOL
Please do and then send me pictures! They’re SO cute!
