Five on Friday - February 14, 2025

Happy Valentine's Day!  Isn't it great that Valentine's Day is actually falling on a Friday.  We can celebrate all weekend long!  Eric and I are going to dinner tonight with friends and then Sunday I'm hosting a small Galentine's party for our church group.  It's going to be a fun weekend!  Let's kick it off with my Five on Friday for this week ~

1.  Season 3 of The White Lotus
Sunday night I'll be glued to the TV to see the opening episode of The White Lotus, back for Season 3!  The White Lotus show has been a hit for HBO!  This season is set in Thailand and it's rumored that a star from season one will make an appearance.  There will be a total of 8 episodes in Season 3, but they are only dropping one per week.  So much for binging watching!

Jojo Moyes's newest book released this week!  I love her books and am excited to dig into this one.  It's a long one - 464 pages.  Here's the summary ~
Lila Kennedy has a lot on her plate. A broken marriage, two wayward daughters, a house that is falling apart, and an elderly stepfather who seems to have quietly moved in. Her career is in freefall and her love life is . . . complicated. So when her real dad—a man she has barely seen since he ran off to Hollywood thirty-five years ago—suddenly appears on her doorstep, it feels like the final straw. But it turns out even the family you thought you could never forgive might have something to teach you: about love, and what it actually means to be family.

3.  Raspberry and White Chocolate Pie
We might have to swing through McDonald's drive thru this weekend to pick up a sweet treat they are offering for a limited time.  The Raspberry and White Chocolate Pie arrived this week!  It's a twist on the chain's classic apple pie.  It's a "decadent" dessert with crispy pink pastry, filled with a smooth white chocolate ganache and a raspberry compote.  Doesn't that sound so yummy!
I purchased a new pair of sweatpants from Amazon and I'm been wearing them on repeat since the day they arrived!  First, they are fleece lined, so they are nice a toasty on my legs.  Second, they are so, so comfy!  They have my favorite thing - pockets.  My pair is khaki, but they come in many other colors.  I might need to get another pair before winter is over!


5.  My thoughts exactly...


Hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!  I have a long weekend since we are off work Monday for Presidents Day.  Looking forward to having an extra day to recover from the weekend!  See you next week.
