The Little Things

Happy last Friday of February! In honor of the end of February (and the fact that there are still some days that the high is under 20 degrees!) I decided to go with dark nail polish again: Lincoln Park After Dark by OPI. I know that I just had it on a few weeks ago, but I couldn’t help myself- it’s such a beautiful color!

And here are some random facts for the week:

1. One of my favorite winter candles is this candied caramel pecan scented candle. It seems absolutely divine, and I’m quite sad that it is gone. Le sigh.

That bouquet is from Valentine’s Day, and still looks beautiful (I took this pic a few days ago)!

2. My last two bike rides, I’ve fueled with candy hearts. Am I going in the direction of fueling every workout with candy? Absolutely not! But once in awhile, sometimes you just need to, you know?

3. Confession Time: I like gas station coffee! In fact… I like Speedway’s black coffee more than Starbucks’ black coffee. Judge me if you must- I’m not even sorry about it! This past weekend I paired my coffee (it was free!) with a blueberry cake donut. It made for a perfect snowy winter Saturday snack!

4. Sometimes I like to dance around my house instead of walking like a normal person. You know- after being at work for 12 hours, sometimes I just need some extra excitement ๐Ÿ™‚

5. I’ve been enjoying Snyder’s pretzel pieces lately. Have you ever tried them? They’re delicious and such an easy snack!

Now it’s your turn to share! What’s one random thing from your week?

    Happy Friday and happy almost weekend! Have anything fun planned? I don’t know about you… but this week has felt so very long. I’m happy that the weekend is coming!

    My favorite candle this fall/winter has been “Sweater Weather” from B&BW. It’s amazing and I’ve burned through like three!

    Next week I’m running a half marathon in Western Colorado along the Grand Mesa and it’s so pretty and the forecast (so far) says that it will be upper 40’s/low 50’s which is ideal racing weather. I’m so stoked. ๐Ÿ™‚

      Happy Friday Rachel!! Iโ€™m hoping to get a run in, get a little work done, and get a lot of House of Cards watching done. This has been a long and very full week for sure! I havenโ€™t tried the Sweater Weather scent, but it sounds really cozy! Good luck enjoying your taper week ๐Ÿ™‚
