Recent Loves, Recent Bed Beard

Part of my practice in living each day to the fullest is appreciating the little things in life.  These last few weeks have been go-go-go so I thought I'd take a moment to tell you about some products that, lately, I've been so happy to have. 1.  Peet's Major Dickason's Blend Part of my Housewife Cost Savings Initiative is to bring my coffee to work everyday instead of buying a latte.  This is saving me around $70 a month!  I've tried several different Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts and other specialty blends, but this Peet's flavor tastes the best to me. 2.  Red Fork Chicken and Smoked Gouda Frozen Pizza I'm a big fan of big late night snacks and this has been my favorite lately.  I like the thin, crispy crust and unique taste of the smoked gouda.  Sometimes chicken on a frozen pizza can be gross, but this one stays juicy and tender. 3.  Hollandaise Creme Gouda Cheese A few weeks ago, Whole Foods was sampling this cheese, and I was hooked at the first bite.  I can't stop eating it.  I've bought 3 bricks in the last week.  It's dense, creamy, tangy, and it goes great with these... 4.  Blue Diamond Almond Nut Thins These are my new favorite crackers!  They have just the right amount of salt and crunch and they're gluten free. 5.  Lucini's Delicate Cucumber and Shallot Dressing I've told you all how I usually like to make my own salad dressing, but when I'm in a pinch, Lucini's is my go to.  This dressing is light and always tastes really yummy and fresh. 6.  March Issues of Bon Appétit and Cooking Light Oh, I was so happy when these arrived on my doorstep yesterday!  Both cover recipes look fantastic.  I'm looking forward to spending some time on the couch over the weekend with this reading material. 7.  Figgy's Bed Beard Ok, Bed Beard is not a product, but I just love this little boy so much I had to include him!  No matter how busy and stressful my days are, I love coming home to this adorable face and his sweet little doggy kisses. Are you as happy that it's Friday as I am?  Hope everyone enjoys a great weekend!
