1. One Direction. Or any pop star targeting tweens. Especially if they have a fantastic 3D movie.
2. Food Made for Kids. Chicken Nuggets, Corn Dogs, Spaghettios, Fish Sticks.
3. Watching the Same TV Shows Over & Over. Friends. Friday Night Lights. One Tree Hill.
4. Lifetime or ABC FamilyMovies. All of them.
5. Eating the Salt out of the Bottom of the Bag of Popcorn. It’s really disgusting, but I can’t help it. It’s extra delicious when it’s full of butter.
6. Leggings as Pants. Super comfortable.
7. Eating Deli Meat Plain. Ham or Turkey.
8. Boxed Wine. Chillable Red. Yum.
9. BOGO. I’ve spent so much money on things I don’t need just because they’re on BOGO.
10. Soft Pretzels from a Bar. I don’t even have to be hungry, but if I go to a bar that’s known for delicious soft pretzels, I’ll order them.
Time for another installment of Sarah’s favorite things…
Crock Pots: There are so many delicious things that can be made in a crock pot. Throw chicken in before work with some salsa, tomatoes and peppers, and you have chicken tacos when you get home from work. Or take a pork loin and add some barbecue sauce, and pulled pork sandwiches are ready as soon as you step in the door. Also, how good does your apartment/house smells after having the crock pot going all day!
T.V.: TV is so good right now, you guys.
Some of my favorites are Carrie Dairies, Pretty Little Liars, Modern Family, Lying Game, Criminal Minds, Nashville, Revenge, The Mindy Project, Scandal and New Girl.
That doesn’t even include the shows I want to start from episode 1: Parenthood, Parks & Rec, Girls, Homeland and Mad Men.
Someone get me a life. Fast.
Brunch: There’s really nothing better than brunch. Here’s a list of my top 4 brunch spots in Uptown Minneapolis –
Uptown Diner: If you don’t care about missing out on Bloody Marys or Screw Drivers, this is definitely the place to be. My favorites include the Caprese Benedict or Gyro Omelet.
Lyndale Tap House: Free mimosa with any breakfast!
Gigi’s Cafe: The outdoor seating is the perfect atmosphere for summer brunch. Try the iced tea with quiche or a breakfast sandwich.
Bar Abeline: I feel like I can’t even really call it one of my favorites because I’ve only gone twice, but they have $3 bottomless mimosas from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.!
