I love the idea for this linkup. Sharing my favorite things and finding out what others like is not only fun, but it’s a great way to learn about new stuff I need to try or buy. So when you’re done reading what I’m loving this week, share some of your favorite things in the comments or on Facebook.
My favorite stuff this week:
Favorite song: Let It Go. Nope, not the one from Frozen. I’m sick of that song. This one is by Cavo, is totally different than the Idina Menzel version (fun fact: she graduated from my high school about 7 years before I did), and was in one of the Transformer movies. Have a listen:
Favorite drink: Dogfish Head Tweasonale. It’s a gluten free, strawberry flavored beer and it is delicious. It doesn’t have that typical beer taste so if you’re not gluten free (like me) but don’t like the taste of beer, you should give it a try anyway. You won’t be able to stop drinking it. Which you probably should, though, because drink responsibly, friends.
Favorite quick recipe: Crockpot BBQ Chicken. Here’s what you do:
- Add roughly 3 chicken breasts, a bottle of your favorite flavor bbq sauce, some garlic powder, 1 tbsp brown sugar and a dash of red pepper flakes to a crockpot.
- Cook for 4-6 hours on high (if breasts are frozen, can get away with 3 or so if thawed).
- Shred chicken and eat.
Favorite day of the week: Thursday. I’m pretty sure this dates back to college and $.50 mug nights at the Stone Balloon (RIP) but for some reason, once I make it through Thursday, I feel like I’ve finished a marathon. I never feel more relaxed than I do on Thursday evenings after the child is in bed.

God, Thursday nights were like the best night ever in college. And like you I still really love them. I think I associate them with fun and a winding down of responsibility for the week.
I love that polka dot blanket!

I’m with you on the nap, there is nothing better than a good afternoon sleep.
I was thinking my favorite day is Friday at 5 PM, work is over and the whole weekend is still in front of me.

I lived off of so many different crock pot chicken dishes over the winter & I have no idea how I never thought to make one with BBQ sauce– which is like my favorite thing to put on everything! Definitely giving that a try sometime soon!

I loooooove that song!! It is on my Spotify playlist. When it came out, I had to buy the CD so I could hear it on repeat.
You had me at strawberry beer. Flavored beers are my favorite! Have you tried the Wells Banana Bread beer? That is another favorite of mine. The after taste is amazing. I think I will be consuming lots of beverages this weekend, we are going to brewfest tomorrow!
You had me at BBQ. Crockpot BBQ recipes are so easy and delish!
Have a great weekend!
