Friday Favorites

April 22, 2016 by oatsandrows

Happy Friday!  It’s a dreary day in Charlotte with potential to last through the weekend, but I am perfectly okay with it considering I am working late tonight and have plans to study all weekend.  My FOMO won’t be raging as hard as if it were going to be sunny out.

Here are some of my recent favorites!  Be sure to leave yours in the comments.  Have a great weekend!

Trader Joe’s Frozen Rice

Trader-Joes-June-2011-015(source)

I’m officially hooked on Trader Joe’s frozen rice.  What I love is that it makes just enough rice so you aren’t leftover with a ton of extra.  Also, you aren’t left with a messy, rice-crusted pan that you have to soak and scrub once the rice is gone.  ALSO, it takes 3 minutes to cook!  They have brown rice, jasmine rice, and quinoa, all frozen and ready in 3 minutes.  It makes cooking late at night that much better.

Halo Top Ice Cream

This ice cream is low-sugar, low-calorie, and high in protein.  AND it actually tastes like ice cream.  It’s definitely worth the high $.

I am moving in a few weeks, so I’ve been trying to get inspired when it comes to decorating my room and our living room.  I’m loving greys, whites, and creams – this picture above is everything.  It’s so cozy and beautiful.

    I’m a huge TJ’s fan, but I haven’t tried the frozen rice yet! And that ice cream? Sounds too good to be true!

      Ohhh it’s worth the price. I actually was at Whole Foods yesterday and they were 2 for $6!

    I have not tried Halo Top yet but I think I need to! Can you find it at HT or just WF?

      I haven’t looked for it at HT but it’s at Whole Foods! They actually had it on sale this weekend, 2 for $6! They are usually $6 for 1- definitely check it out!

    Hi Sara,

    Great picks but I have to admit that this home decor from Pinterest really had me in “Awe”. It is definitely what I want in my dream house. 🙂
