The Return of Five Friday Favorites

Some of my long-time reading friends will remember that at one time I used to do a little feature I like to call Five Friday Favorites. This is where I show you five “new” things that are favorites of mine. I’ve sort of been in a blogging slump lately, as you can probably tell by the lack of posts. I’m hoping to change that and get my creative surge back. I’ve been slowly (very slowly) trying to gain control of the clutter in my house. I had a major triumph today when I took a HUGE stack of magazines to my co-worker. It was very difficult, and even now as they are sitting in a box here by her desk, I’m struggling to take them back and say “sorry, these are mine”. Silly, very silly, I know, especially when I haven’t looked at them in months, and years even. But anyway, let’s get on to the Five Friday Favorites. Hope you enjoy it!
1. Smashbox Photo Finish Primer - I bought a small sample of this wonderful product at Sephora a few weeks ago. A tiny bit goes a long way and helps your foundation go on smooth and stay on better. I love this stuff and wish I’d tried it a long time ago.
2. Snyder’s of Hanover Butter Snaps - I LOVE these things! This is my go-to snack at work. The slight buttery flavor gives these little pretzels a wonderful old-fashioned taste. The shape is a perfect bite!
3. Adidas Travao Thongs (Flip Flops) - I tried these flip-flops on at Famous Footwear last Saturday when we were there buying shoes for Brad. Talk about comfortable! The insole is “visco-elastic rebound foam, contours to your foot like a custom mold.” No more feeling the concrete right through your flip-flops. I went back and bought them last night. 
4. This Is Ivy League - This is a wonderful band I read about earlier this week. I went to YouTube to watch one of their videos and instantly liked them enough to buy both of their albums on iTunes. If you love the mellow sounds of Simon and Garfunkle with a little British flair thrown in for good measure, then you will love This Is Ivy League.
5. Fridays!! I love my new job, but I still LOVE Fridays. It’s the eve of the weekend and oh so wonderful!
What favorite things have you discovered, or remembered, that you just can’t wait to tell someone about?
