Happy Friday! Linking up today with Andrea, etc. right here for Friday Favorites!

It is indeed a very happy Friday because I am off! This is always a long weekend for us due to the Kentucky Derby weekend.

I am also happy because my birds are in the nest! Wednesday afternoon was college move out and it poured rain while we were doing it. It was comical! I had hopes to get a photo but it was just not possible.

Here are some favorite snapshots from the week….

I had fun with my taco mask on Taco Tuesday!

I wore some favorite summer pants this week!

Tuesday after school I had a fun happy hour at a brewery with my friend Beth.

It was 82 degrees out and many had the same idea. The upper deck was full so we sat on the lower deck.

This brewery has a permanent Mexican food truck.

We got some chips and guac.

I got out of my reading rut with this book last weekend. I finished it on Sunday, sadly. It was chick lit with substance – well written, funny, with some serious parts. I recommend it! I read it in two days!

I love the shape of the Rae Dunn mugs I have realized.

Yesterday, the teachers wore Derby attire.

All of a sudden our azaleas look gorgeous!

I had a library pick up and browsed a bit. I checked out this beautiful charcuterie book.

And, I am excited to start one of these this weekend…

Is there anything better than roasted fresh vegetables? I used just a bit of EVOO and did broccoli, cauliflower, baby carrots, mushrooms, and onions on a sheet pan. I did a bit of pasta and turkey sausage and had just gotten new pickles. Kinda weird, but such an easy dinner!

What were your favorites this week? Are you ready for May?

Have a wonderful weekend!
