Five Things Friday
Happy Friday everyone! I feel like this week was a struggle, but yet I can't believe that Friday is here already! Woo to the hoo! I have a fun weekend planned; Superbowl watching {and eating} and taking a trip to Brooklyn with Kimberly & Nick for some old school Brooklyn sandwiches. The weather is supposed to be nice, so I can't wait!
Friday means Five Things, so here you go!
fresh flowers
I got these for $5 at Walmart (the one by me was just completely renovated and I'm mildly obsessed...but that's a story for another time!), and they've lasted for 2 weeks. They just make me happy to have some fresh, pretty flowers in the dead, barren winter.
Grand Central Station
I had never been to Grand Central, but it has long been on my list of places to get to in NYC. When I found myself in the neighborhood for a meeting earlier this week, I had to pop in for a peek. Though I want to go back so I can explore further and do a little shopping, I was happy to see it in all of its grandeur! Even if it was during miserable rush hour and people were pushing me out of the way as I stood and stared in awe.
brightly colored yarn
I picked these up at AC Moore this weekend (when I was buying food coloring for these). I love the bright, fresh and fun colors! I have a craft that I found on Pinterest that I want to do at some point. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
I downloaded this yesterday and got started last night. I am not exactly starting from the couch, so I began with the week 5, day 1 workout. I have to admit, it was a struggle to stay on the treadmill for 68 minutes, however, I am really digging this app! I'll keep you posted in the coming weeks on how its working out.
emergency kit supplies
Shaun and I are finally buckling down and getting our emergency kit together. For reals. Shaun ordered an extra flashlight, matches and flint for the kit. Next up, I plan to add candles, a case of water and possibly an oil lamp. Not to mention some canned goods and maybe a blanket or two.
So there you have it. Five Things I'm into on this Friday. Have a great weekend everyone!

fresh flowers make me so happy! and grand central is pretty awesome, right?! so big
I've been SO close to picking up fresh flowers the last few times I've been at the store. Next time I will, they are SO nice to have!
I can't believe you had never been to Grand Central! It's pretty amazing. I used to commute through there for a summer and I am still in awe of the great hall and the Market is deelicious!
Ah my week has been so slow I could not be happier that it is Friday.
Can't believe you had never been to Grand Central! I used to walk through every day on my commute.
My things...
hmmm, my iphone camera. crab meat, and new clothes from athleta are topping my list.
I really should put together an emergency kit!
I totally agree with you - flowers in the winter are SO much better! They brighten my whole apartment!
I really like you 10k plan - I know you can do it, and I think the walk-run progression is a great plan! Can't wait to hear how it goes!
fresh flowers would make my room look so much more welcoming, seeing as im too lazy to even think about decorating. I am also intrigued by your emergancy kit supplies :D
I need to download the 10K app! My hubby is awesome about getting an emergency kit prepared.... I have one in the car, and one in the house! So good to have around, you never know when you will need it!
