Friday, you look better and better with each passing week.
First things first, you may notice a few small updates around here. Exhibit A: Popular Posts have been added to the sidebar. Not much else to say on this front, but a nice addition nevertheless.
Exhibit B: Comment section. A few of you expressed difficulties using Disqus so I decided to make the switch back to the regular ‘ol comment section. Yay? Nay? Let me know what you think.
In an effort to spice up these weekly rounds posts, each Friday I’ll be implementing a friendly game of would you rather. It’s simple, really! I pose a question, share my answer and you reciprocate with your answer down in the comments! First up…
Would you rather give up cheese and dairy or sugar and sweets?
It pains me to say this, but I think I’d have to say so long to sugar! If you’ve had the fried mozzarella from McCoy’s in Westport, you know why.
AROUND THE WEB/WORLD:
- The gals over at Adorn Media Group featured me in their Tastemaker Spotlight series and I couldn’t be more flattered by their kind words.
- It’s tax-free weekend here in Kansas City and I’m planning to take full advantage by investing in a new laptop. The hand-me-down (no shame) I’ve been using for the past several years is on it’s last leg and I’m ready to upgrade to something that will allow me to work with ease (read: work without needing to be plugged into a wall or work without it typing numbers when I’m actually keying letters). MacBook Air, here I come.
- If you’re not early, you’re late. Thanks to Felicia for this gem on the importance of being on time.
- We’ve got quite the situation going on in our apartment at the moment. Crossing my fingers one of these tips on getting rid of fruit flies works.
- Ashley over at Ashley Ella Design has some really great stock photos (one of which is pictured above) that are yours for the low low price of on the house – just give her credit!
SHOP ‘TIL YA DROP:
- A classic camera to catch all of life’s little moments.
- Never mind the fact that we’re still in the 90s here in KC. I’m trying to build my fall/winter wardrobe ahead of time and this turtleneck sweater has my name written all over it.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve got a full weekend ahead and I’m ready to get to it! Savor the days and soak it all in, friends 🙂

Hey Jess–I used these to get rid of fruit flies and it worked: http://www.amazon.com/Natural-Catch-Fruit-Traps-2-Nat003/dp/B004FDUHS8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1438948657&sr=8-3&keywords=fruit+fly
How interesting. Thank you for this!
So many good links! I’m pumped for tax free weekend here too. Definitely picking up a few pieces!
Sooo, what did ya get?!
girl. i agree, somehow i allowed myself to get looped into whole 30 at the beginning of the year so I’ve gone without both. I can’t think of anything that will ever convince me it’s a good idea to give up cheese again. Sweets? eh..
You are a much stronger person than I am haha. I wouldn’t have been able to do it!
I think I would rather give up sugar and sweets as well! That is a tough one though since I am a dessert every night type of girl 😊. Enjoy your weekend 😉😘
No more of your cookies….the horror!
Definitely sugar. I couldn’t live without my milk mostly because of my morning lattes! And I have been loving on brie with raspberry jalapeno jam! Yum, you should try it. Have a fun weekend!
Oh yum…I bet that is good!
Wish I you’ve been there to take advantage of that tax free goodness! Enjoy your Friday updates and of course, I love the photo. 🙂
You’re coming back to the states soon, right?! Thanks for creating awesome photos for everyone to use 🙂
So happy to have found your blog! Love your “additions” to the site, but since I just found your blog, I think they are great features! I know what I will be reading tonight! Happy to be following along!
All the best, xo! Jordan Taylor | petiteMODERN
