Friday Favorites–Easter Candy

Fun· What Runners Eat

18 Apr

Hello! Happy Friday. How was your week?

I celebrated Throwback Thursday on Instagram. But, this is kinda Flashback Friday today…

monican little at easter

This morning I will be running and eating. Shocker.

youre predictable

Friday Favorites…

1. Easter Candy! I don’t know what it is, but I feel like Easter Reese’s PB Cups are the BEST!

2. Salty Snacks. I’m usually a sweet tooth person, but this week I cannot get enough SALT. I opened 3 bags of chips because I couldn’t just choose one. Let’s call this an appetizer?

all the chips 2 (800x600)

3. Blueberries. Because I also like healthy stuff.

4. Liquid Eyeliner. Most days I do the bare minimum, usually no make up. Or I’ll do a super quick swipe of mascara and am out the door. But lately I just want to put on eyeliner whether or not I’m doing anything…ya know, for practice.

Not-so-favorite… my bad quality front facing camera. I have a good phone, but the front camera is the worst. Or maybe it’s just trying to discourage me from so many selfies…

5. My lil strawberry plants. I am so excited about them!

6. Vitamin E oil. My fall the a few weeks ago left a bad scar on my knee. Boo. So I’m trying to rub Vitamin E on it to help. 

7. Pistachio Pie. I feel like this is another good Easter-y dessert. I’m thinking about making again for this weekend.

Tip: I’ve heard it’s confusing to see the chronological order of RER – check out the bottom of the page for the “Latest Posts” in order or click on “Previous Post” on the bottom of each one.

POLL: Do you need a “Home” button to get to the home page of RER?

Question: What’s your favorite thing this week?

    Yes to “Home” button and chronological/sequencing of posts.
    You can also try Rose Hip Oil for scarring (in addition to Vit E oil).

    My favorite thing this week is that my boss finally hired a part-time assistant for my classroom – hopefully these 50+ hour weeks are coming to an end!

    My favorite thing this week was getting off work @ noon and having drinks and lunch on the water with a friend : ) I have to say the new set up is less user friendly…just being honest and the bouncing advertisement

    I don’t need a home button. I think we’re at a point with technology where most people know that to get “home” you click on the Logo. 🙂

    Favorite thing this week: Eating dinner outside last night in Santa Monica (named for you, of course!)….it was a little brisk, but a martini and space heaters warmed me up fine! 🙂

    Thanks for the pie recipe, I’m totally going to make this for Easter now! I didn’t know what I should make, because my boyfriend is allergic to chocolate (awful, right?) …but he loves pistachio, so this will be awesome!

    I have never had pistachio pie! Will have to try that!

    The eyeliner looks great! My self-facing camera seems to do the same thing. Just not the same quality on the front as the back, probably.

    How in the world do you do liquid eyeliner? I am so not good at fine motor skill things like that! I feel like mine always looks wonky. You’d think I’d have this life skill at my age…

    I made my family’s special Easter ice cream dessert last night! Oreo crust, mint ice cream, and fudgy topping! I just ate it for breakfast though, which wasn’t the best choice!

    My favorite thing this week is FINALLY crossing of “refinance the mortgage” from my to-do list. I’m in the process now officially. I’ll be saving over $30,000 in interest over the course of the loan.
    No home button or link needed since your RER logo functions as one. Thanks for the “latest posts” tip. I missed the TMI Vlog one at first…

    Happy Easter weekend to ya…enjoy the candy
