Friday Favorites

·
I for one am super duper excited it’s Friday!  After heading out of town last weekend the week has just been off.  We are out of coffee AND laundry detergent and I feel like I’ve barely been home.  We do have baseball this weekend but it is nearby so I hope to be able to knock out a few of those necessary tasks at the house and make it to buy some food!

Here are some of my favorites from the week!  

Favorite Pin||I pinned these burgers this week and I’m dying to try them!  I’ve only used ground chicken a handful of times but I’m really thinking this would be easy to prepare and have for my lunches during the week.  
Favorite Spin||I love a good outfit recreation and Carylee over at More Pieces of Me is always giving me so many ideas I can create with items in my very own closet!  I typically do not feel like I can wear a belt for whatever reason but this should be proof you should always give a new spin a try at least once.  I loved wearing this outfit!  At the very least you should go give Carylee a follow on Instagram @carylee07.  Be sure to follow along with my instagram @queeninbetween to see so many of my outfits which never maker it over to the blog.  
Favorite Win||At Texas A&M our dining is handled by Chartwells and on Thursday a few of us had the opportunity to head over to the main dining hall on campus and participate in a little work behind the scenes.  This group is a winning combination….oh…and the cauliflower crust wasn’t so bad either! 
We made cauliflower pizza and a turkey meatloaf which replace half the meat with chopped mushrooms.  The meatloaf was my favorite!  Glad we managed to make it through without being kicked out…..we tend to be a little bit on the politically incorrect side at times but shhhh…don’t tell!  
Favorite Gin||If you aren’t familiar with this face then you know nothing about country music!  Merle Haggard is one of my very favorites EVER.  So many of his songs bring back memories of my dad and even my parents relationship.  Much to my surprise I married a guy who has a country soul much older than his age and we rode many a mile in his truck when we were dating listening to a little Merle and wondering how I was gonna settle the Ramblin Fever in that boy’s heart!  In memory of Merle here are my very favorites….do yourself a favor and look them up!  
That’s the Way Love Goes 
Are the Good Times Really Over 
Ramblin Fever
It’s Been a Great Afternoon (no really…this is a must!)
I Think I’ll Just Stay Here and Drink
Mama Tried
If We Make it Through December 
Misery & Gin
If We’re Not Back in Love by Monday
Let’s Chase Each Other Around the Room
You will just have to trust me…if Merle has not been in your music arsenal you need to take care of that today!  

Favorite Line|| (Okay so I ran out of rhymes) Do you guys have teenagers?  Are you as lost as I am most days on the latest acronyms?  This “Who’s on First” rendition between me and Dillon this past week really had me cracking up.  WYM…I seriously just thought that was a damn typo!!  Nope….now I’m “in the know”. Funniest part was when I responded and told him how bad boys were at communicating he responded “your fault for not being up to date”.  I seriously wish I could have been angry but I couldn’t quit laughing.    
So excited to be having lunch with Holly today!  I couldn’t believe when I received a text Thursday morning noting that we had not exchanged texts since Monday.  That seriously has to be some sort of record.  
Wishing you all the very best weekend!
