Five on Friday - March 4, 2016

It's here!  It's here!  Friday has arrived and I couldn't be happier to see it.  I've been chancing my tail all week and I'm looking forward to having a couple days to just breath.  We do have a pretty full agenda for Saturday and Sunday, but it's some fun stuff which always makes it seem better.

Hope you enjoy my five today!

1.  Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon
When I was out of town coordinating a conference a little bit ago, we had Josh Cabernet Sauvignon wine served at dinner.  Loved it!  Since then, I've seen it pop up a couple different places so I guess word is getting around that it's pretty darn good.  I like my wine smooth and this one was like silk sliding down my throat.  Winemaker’s Notes: "Rich, aromatic dark fruits and baking spices delight the nose, yielding fresh plum and blackberry fruit, violet, dried fig, vanilla bean, and Chinese Five-Spice. The wine is layered with smoky and sappy maple wood, roasted almonds, and hazelnuts and finishes with fine, firm tannins."  Now doesn't that sound yummy!  I just might be stopping by tonight to pick up a bottle.  It's been a long week -- I deserve it!

2.  Lemon Cookies
Last Friday when I came home from girls night out, Eric was baking up a batch of these refrigerated lemon cookies.  Oh.My.Goodness! They are DELICIOUS!  You see, Eric works in a grocery store so when something new hits the shelves he is usually bringing it home for us to try.  These were a hit!  Apparently they are only out for a limited time, but I have every intention of writing a letter to Pillsbury and asking begging them to keep them in the stores year round.  Just in case they don't respond positively to my letter and take them away, you better grab some if you see them.

3.  Kiwi Express Shine
Have you ever looked down at your shoes and thought, EEKS - what happened to the toes of my shoes!  I do that quite a bit in the winter when I look at my boots.  Eric found this magic wand.  Just swipe it over your shoes and they look like brand new.  Quickly.  So on my way out of door I do a little swipe swipe and just like that, my boots don't look like I just walked through a battlefield.

4.  Wilton Gold Color Mist
Check this out -- just in time for St. Patrick's Day we have this gold mist.  I'm thinking of so many possibilities for this stuff.  You can spray it on chocolate, icing, ice cream - anything really.  



Check out these Oreos that look like gold coins.  Wouldn't they be fun for St. Patrick's Day?!?  

5.  Let's Get Lucky.....

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!  I'm headed to a wine tasting tonight.  Tomorrow Eric and I are grading papers for a spelling bee and then Sunday we're taking Ian and Kayla out to dinner to celebrate Ian's birthday.  Hope you stop back by on Monday to hear the details.
