Favorite Things Thursday

I have so many favorite things...where to even start.

1. Burger King's Large TURBO coffee - I love this coffee. I am normally a Starbuck's kind of girl...but since I have found the turbo coffee at Burger King..OMG that is the best stuff I have ever had! The cool thing is the "turbo" part of it. When they first came out with this, I wondered why in the world they were calling it turbo or regular. So, one day, I asked. They told me that it had extra shots of caffeine...woohoo! I was all about that! Now, I make my regular stop in to school every morning and here lately I have been stopping in the afternoons after school just for that extra "pick-me-up" that we all need at the end of a day of work. If you are a big coffee drinker, you need to try this coffee!

2. Surprise visits at work (school) from my husband - My husband is such a sweetheart (most of the time). He hardly ever makes any stops to see me while I work...and normally it is only to drop Allie off or to tell me something because he could not get ahold of me. Well, he knew that I had been feeling horrible the past couple of days (sick) and so today I am in my classroom working after school and I hear my outside door open..only to see him walking in. I was so wowed! There was no reason for him stopping by, just to check on me and sit with me for a little while. He really made my day today. I needed that after the crazy day that I had today!

3. Hand-me-downs: Today a friend of mine at work brought me some really cool clothes for Allie. Her daughter is about 7 and she was going through some of her clothes that she had grown out of and wanted to bring them to me. That was the sweetest thing! When I got them home Allie just could not wait to tear in to them. They are so darling. Lots of cute clothes that will get lots of good wear!

4. Take-Out: Well, it is not a normal thing for me to love "take out" food. But, this week I have felt horrible with a yucky cold that has left me without a voice. We have really come to rely on take out the past couple of days because I have not felt like cooking dinner. Ahh...thank goodness for take out.
