Happy Friday friends! I am SO ready for the weekend. This week was a crazy one. I’m looking forward to quality time with Josh celebrating Valentine’s Day and lots and lots of sleep. This weekend we’re also attending the Omaha TED Talks, going out dancing, and seeing Garrison Keillor! It’s going to be a great time. Here’s what else I’m loving this Friday:
1. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is NOT a drill. The Tony Award winning Broadway play, Newsies, is finally coming to Omaha. And it premieres next week! I’m going to be there opening night and I cannot wait! If you have not bought your tickets yet you’re going to want to get on that ASAP as the shows are filling up fast. I have been looking forward to this all year and can’t believe next week I’ll be seeing Newsies live!!

2. I just got this new Fresh Made Simple Cookbook and I am in love with the adorable illustrations and simple, yummy eats. I could go for a Ricotta Mozzarella Melt right now!
3. I’m pretty sure I’ve told you guys about my obsession with Brussels sprouts before. They’re one of my favorite foods that I can eat all day every day. As soon as I came across this Every Day I’m Brusslin’ tee online I knew I had to have it. I gotta hustle for those brussels! The tee was made by Eat Healthy Designs, a company that makes some of the cutest, food-related shirts and accessories.
4. My JCPenney coat that looks crazy similar to the much more expensive J.Crew version is on sale for $65! I’m tempted to get another one in a different color! It’s so warm and I have gotten so many compliments on it.
5. It’s almost Valentine’s Day! Gourmet Gift Baskets surprised me with this sweet treat this past week and it was so cute I had to share it with you guys. Cookie cakes are a straight path to my heart. I love them so much that Josh proposed on a cookie cake, making them even more special to me. As I should not be eating a whole cookie cake by myself (though it’s very tempting!), I’m bringing it into work with me today so my coworkers can help me finish it off. I’m excited to spread the cookie cake love and hope they find it as delicious as I do!
P.S. The trailer for season two of Outlander was just released! It’s amaaaaazing.
Questions of the Day: Have you seen Newsies? Are you a fan of brussels sprouts? What’s your favorite sweet to eat on Valentine’s Day?
that healthy cook book looks so cute! I am a sucker for cooking but find that I always am whipping up unhealthy options. I love how that book is unique and not similar to all of the other cook books out there. Definitely going to go check it out! x, kenz
I love Newsies! That’s so exciting you are going to see it! Have a great weekend!
I need that shirt, I love that haha!
I need that shirt!
I saw Newsies this summer, it was really good. My husband and his sisters all grew up with the movie and were obsessed so we all went together.
Looks like a ton of fun.
That play looks so seriously fantastic and I want to take a bite out of that giant Valentine’s cookie!!
Erin,
Let me be the first to say that I got excited to read that you are attending TED talks. WOW! I watch YouTube videos of TEDx because of the learnings.
Newsies are amazing!
I totally want that ricotta melt sandwich right now… Yum! Also? I totally love that shirt 🙂 And nice find on the warm (and way cheaper) coat!! I just treated myself to one the other day that was initially more than I ever spend on a jacket, but it’s unbelievably warm and I think a good investment. Plus, I live in NJ and it’s 14 degrees out there today. FOURTEEN!!!
Stay warm and have a great weekend 🙂
Love these types of posts! I really love that shirt!
The cookie looks amazing, we have a company called Millies Cookies in the UK who do ones super similar x
Love the t-shirt! The cookie cake OMG, I want to eat now! hahaha
Ricotta mozerella melt sounds amazing. That definitely sounds like my kind of cook book.
I haven’t heard of Newsies before, I don’t think it’s come to the UK. The Fresh made Simple book looks great. I love the illustrations. But omg, the heart shaped cookie cake is amazing!
YOU HAVE TO RECAP NEWSIES! I saw it last year when it was in LA, and I LOVED it. But I’m a theatre nerd and it’s hard for me not to love anything Broadway!!!!! 🙂
oh I love all theatre so would love that – and that coat is just my style great for the cold weather
I am so ready for the weekend. This week has been crazy. Love the t-shirt.
That cookbook looks so fun! And that sandwich looks delicious!!
Brussel sprouts are my favorite veggie!!
I love brussel sprouts!! my favourite food. people think I am mad. Loving the t-shirt
I am so glad that there is someone out there who loves Brussels Sprouts. Can I donate my lifetimes worth of them to you so that I never, ever have to deal with one again?
Ahhhhh – I want that coat! Would that be creepy?! Haha
A cookie cake is the path to my heart too! I’ve always wanted one from Millie’s Cookies but alas.. I’m still waiting!
That cookie looks amazing and the show looks like it was a lot of fun x
I AM OBSESSED WITH THAT SHIRT. Must get it ASAP!
You have a great weekend lined up! I will be ill in bed all weekend (she says feeling sorry for herself) have fun!
That musical I need to know more about it – I have to admit it isn’t one I’ve heard of before.
