Five for Friday/Good stuff and free stuff

It’s my favorite day of the week- Friday! I always feel either a sense of relief or accomplishment come Friday. I know that not everyone has a Monday-Friday job and Friday may not have the same significance, but even when I had a job requiring me to work weekends, I still had some excitement for the weekends. Friday means it’s also time for Friday Favorites/ Five for Friday.

1- It’s no secret that I’ve gotten back into reading this year. When I jump into any hobby or activity, I have to go all out and have ALL the supplies, things, etc. So I now have a reading list and book wish list a mile long now that I’ve been back into reading. I’m not opposed to having used copies and have even picked up some books on my list from the thrift store. I went on an online search recently for a used copy of something on my list and discovered this list of 15 Best Online Bookstores for Cheap New and Used Books. You can also pick up free ebooks and audio books here and there. If you like Christian books, you can get a free monthly audiobook from ChristianAudio.com and this month’s book is Unashamed by Lecrae. You can also get a free download of You and Me Forever/ Marriage in Light of Eternity by Francis Chan here. I haven’t read either but I’m interested.

2- One of my favorite products that I use almost daily- Downy Wrinkle Releaser. It has saved me many mornings when I don’t have time to iron, and even when I do, I usually steam my clothes and it helps with this process too. I also make sure to keep the travel size on hand for vacations. I’m less likely to iron on vacation, but this stuff keeps me from looking like I slept in my outfit all week.

3- Wearing lately– This grey blazer I’ve already blogged about, (it’s currently in stock and on sale!) white jeans and my denim jacket on repeat. The folks at my church are going to start thinking I only own white jeans and a denim jacket. It’s cold at church so the denim jacket is perfect for Sundays.

4- We had one of my favorite meals this week- bunless burgers over lettuce with tomato, cheese, avacado, pickles and all the condiments + baked sweet potatoe fries. The best gluten free meal ever! I also gave these coconut lime fat bombs a try this week, since I’m doing carb cycling and need something for low carb days. (In theory I’m carb cycling because I had an epic fail yesterday and had cookies when I’m supposed to be having a low carb day!) Anyway, these have a yummy lime flavor and I’d be happy to eat them any day, low carb or not.

5- My absolute favorite part- sharing all the cute Jane.com finds with you.

This sweater caught my eye. It comes is four colors. Later I noticed the seller for the sweater is Cents of Style and you can get the sweater straight from them this weekend at 40% off and free shipping, which may be about the same price with the free shipping. Code Spring40 applies to several spring sweaters at Cents of Style.

The camo tee dress looks like the perfect weekend piece, and I love a good pull on skirt, especially with stripes. The fun doesn’t stop with fashion at Jane. Grab some home decor items to spruce up for spring.

Check out the two tier farmhouse tray! And the mix and match pillow covers.
