Friday: Top 3?s

Whoa, is it Friday already?!

Good morning from the 202.😉

Yup I’m visiting the bf for the weekend, I got in last night at around 12:30am. I was exhausted! But hey, can’t beat $5 Megabus tickets right?

To kick off this already awesome weekend, let’s jump into our usual Friday “Top 3’s” post.

Let’s do it! Here are a few of my top 3 favorite things from different categories. I forgot to take any pictures of my food this week (who am I?!), so instead of “eats”, the first category will be something a little different.

Top 3 Recipes

1. Magic 5 Cookies – Sally’s Baking Addiction
Ummmmm, yeah. I’ll just leave these here.

2. The Ultimate Healthy Dark Chocolate Cupcakes – Amy’s Healthy Baking
You can now buy Amy’s cookbook HERE! I’m ecstatic about it and these beauties are on page 114. Basically the dessert of my dreams.

3. Healthy 4 Ingredient Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs – Ambitious Kitchen
Now I can make my favorite Easter candy at home! And without all the crap?! Winning.

Top 3 Lows

1. Having to go back to the city after being home for a few days, but I’ll be home again very soon!
2. CRAMPS…am I right ladies?!
3. Unhappy/rude customers at work. Seriously, don’t kill the messenger! I’m just the hostess, it’s out of my control that you can’t sit down right away because the people at your table haven’t left yet. I can’t rush them! Be kind to those who work in the service industry, please.

Top 3 Highs

1. A literal high! Haha! Views from airplanes make me so happy, especially when I get to sit by the wing. Nature is breathtaking.

2. Getting to spend a day with my favorite cousin! Family is such an important part of my life and I’m fortunate to be a part of a family that is so close. Maybe it’s because I’m Italian, but it makes me sad to see families that don’t talk to one another.

3. Obviously getting to see my bf again! We did long distance for most of our relationship, so getting to see one another as often as we can will never get old for us. Also, I can’t stand when people are like, “I haven’t seen my bf in a day, I miss him!” Boo hoo. Sorry, you don’t know what missing someone is. I promise I’m a nice person.

Top 3 Instagrams

1. Chocolate Covered Katie’s Avocado Monster Sandwiches caught my eye because they look like the PERFECT lunch food.

2. Kylie’s blog has been a favorite of mine for awhile, and this quote could not be more true. Be kind to yourself please!

3. How gorgeous do these cookies look from Ashley?!? Salty, sweet, chunky….yeah sign me up! Find the recipe HERE.
