Five on Friday | Favorites this Week

Keeping it simple today and mostly giving an Instagram {@homeofmalones) recap of some of my favorites this week....

Oh yeah, and Happy First Day of August!! WOW.

I'm looking forward to a pretty fun month to wrap up the quickly fleeting summer we've had this year!

{Favorite Food}

I made this deliciousness this week and loved it.  It was even a hit with the hubby and the baby.   I love brussel sprouts but I'm not always sure that they will.
Bacon and Brussel Sprout Mac and Cheese

{Favorite Dress}

I'm in love with this dress and it's on major sale right now at J. Crew Factory.  Yes, those are leather front pockets.

{Favorite Jewelry}

I know I talked about this already earlier in the week, but I love this bracelet.  And this bag.

{Favorite Kid}

This kid can seriously drive me crazy in the late afternoons. I mean, for real.  My poor husband has to come home and I'm always saying, "this kid is driving me nuts!"  He's always overtired and I'm tired  of being his full-time entertainment by 4:30pm.  Outside has been a little cooler in the afternoons, so we are trying this for awhile...

  7. Brussel sprout mac-n-cheese? Ok!! Must try. Girlfriend, I feel your pain with the afternoons. I feel guilty for passing Lily off to my husband after a busy day though. Yesterday, I literally went to the grocery store for one item (plus a bottle of wine) after he got home and just sat in my car and listen to the silence for 30 minutes before going inside. Mom secrets, I tell ya. I hear it gets better...eventually. ;)
