Favorite Things From This Week

Oh Sunday nights, how I loathe thee... I had planned to write about our San Juan trip today (a photo heavy post), but the day has slipped by. So instead, how about a few of my "favorite things" from this past week:

1. This Superbowl commercial that I'm watching on repeat.



Over the last couple of years I've actually been pretty disappointed in the Superbowl commercials, but this year was a little better. This Doritos commercial was by far my favorite of the bunch, and in my opinion the best part is the goat "scream" towards the end.. it cracks me up every time!

2. This mascara.



I've never posted about beauty products before, but I'm seriously obsessed with this mascara from Benefit. It may be quite a bit more expensive than my usual drugstore choice (which is L'oreal's Voluminous - I highly recommend that as well), but it is worth every penny. Zero clumping, zero smudging, and amazing looking lashes means that I am a convert 100%. Buy it here.

3. Blizzard drinks.



While this over-hyped blizzard was taking place, Vlady and I were enjoying a casual dinner at our favorite diner, Good Stuff. It's actually become somewhat of a tradition for us to go here during "big" events: we came here before hurricane Irene struck, as it was the only place open. We also happened to be in the diner the day that Whitney Houston died, and we came here after we voted in 2012 to watch the election coverage. So it seemed fitting to be here during the blizzard as well - and I celebrated by sipping a drink that made me want to be on a beach.

4. And of course, what favorite things post would be complete without a picture of my all-time favorite:
