friday favorites: the new blog design one

Let's all take a minute to oooh and aaah at Erin's work on my new blog design. 
Oooh!
Aaah!
Erin is the boooooomb!
^^all to be said in a dreamy voice.  
And really, Erin is the bomb. 

Favorite Jam
That's What's Up by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. 
Don't mind me. I'll just me singing the first two lines of this song for the next 72+ hours. Because they are the only lines of the song that I have memorized. 
Sidebar: I actually just watched this music video for the first time and it's kind of adorable. Makes me want to be a kid so I can trespass a playground and it not be creepy. 

Favorite Food
Freddie and I have been trying to decide what to eat when we are back in Charleston. We've narrowed down the list to about...fifty places. So that's good. #1 on the list? Truffle Mac n' Cheese from Coleman Public House. 
...and pizza from DeSano's, cocktails from Rarebit, and ice cream from Jeni's. Those are all on the #1 spot. Obviously. 

Favorite Houston Thing
Sunsets. 
H-town, you are killing it with the sunsets lately. Don't stop. Or maybe do stop until we get back, then start up again. 

Favorite Pilates Move
Bridging 
(hip lift)
I'm currently on a plane which means I'm sitting on my butt which means my hips and pelvis are wonky. This exercise is a great way to stretch the front of the hip (a position most of us do not get in our normal every day lives), and strengthen the back of the body. That's called a classic win-win, folks.
Pro-tip: don't do it like me in these pictures. Keep your chin lower and the back on your neck long in your starting position. 

Favorite Funny
I'm sure you've seen this on Facebook an average of ten times a day, but IT'S SO TRUE. 
New bedtime = 6:30pm.  
New wake-up time = 4:30am. 

Happy Friday!
Linking up with Karli and Amanda!

OBSESSED with your design, especially those flowers up at the top!! Erin did an awesome job. Can I just tell you I've never been to the Public House... we are huge mac and cheese lovers, so that is definitely added to my list, too. I'm headed to the airport in a few hours, so you know what that means... DeSano's for dinner!

I'm just gonna fly out to Charleston so I can have that mac and cheese with you guys, okay? I reeeeally want to listen to that song but for some reason my computer at work alternates between videos working and not working. It's currently in not working mode. Boo.
