From the Friday Front

Late post today, friends.  Yesterday was mayhem on the work and throbbing ankle front, so last night involved maximum amounts of doing nothing - something that is highly underrated.  I hope to do copious amounts of the same this weekend.  How about you?

Cut to this afternoon and you'll find me sitting in my office wearing one purple velvet Dany shoe:

true love on the healthy ankled foot

Staring idly at the remainder of the sour candies that survived the trip back from Canada (barely):

never really was a big fan of the yellow ones

Having just consumed half a dozen of my favorite home-baked chocolate chip cookies...

clearly it's Friday and the wheels are off the bus

The Ghirardelli recipe will never fail you - as evidenced above.  If you need the gluten-free version simply substitute the flour blend from this recipe cup for cup and they'll never know the difference.

Have a great weekend everyone!  Don't forget to enter the Minnetonka giveaway if you haven't already...

LOVE the dany heels Carrie!!!

Love that you still wore one amazing shoe, even though your ankle was sprained! Dedicated.

I, too, will be engaging in copious amounts of nothing over the weekend. Hopefully, we'll have good weather, so all this nothingness can take place at the beach. Otherwise, the couch is the next best option. Take it easy!

You have the Dany's in purple velvet? Love. Rest up and eat some more cookies!

Kayla said...

Poor Poor bad ankle but those shoes are killer. I love the yellow ones. You can send them too me. In exchange... well I was gonna send you cookies but clearly you have that under control. Happy weekend.

As a college student I can definitely back up the idea that doing absolutely nothing is highly underrated.

Marissa said...

Woah - those shoes are incredible! Though, they do look like they're best for going from a cab to a sit-down dinner. ;) Purple is my favorite color, and I've been lusting over anything velvet lately.

I have been on the fence with those Dany's forever- I purchased a pair last summer, but decided a 7 didn't fit, and got too lazy to repurchase them in 8. Then there was the matter of not being able to walk in them..yikes! I kinda want them all over again- seeing them on you- and knowing they are super well priced now ;) xo Carlina
