Happy Friday!
This week was craaazy! My head is still spinning from my Meredith Vieira Show appearance. Here’s a clip if you missed it. I’m last (at about the 4:06 mark).
I attempted to replicate my hairdo from the show today, and I need a little practice. If only I had access to my own personal hairstylist every day!
There was some other excitement this week, but nothing as interesting as the show. Let’s just say I’m ready for a relaxing weekend!
Before the weekend arrives though I have a bonus post for you! Look for it a little later today. It’s a delicious Mexican recipe and perfect for the weekend. Get your margaritas ready!
Here are my favorite links from the week:
