Awkward and Awesome Friday

Happy Friday!
I hope your had an awesome week without too many awkward moments.
Awkward:
  • Dropping a cupcake icing side down on a friend of your husband's that you are just meeting for the first time.
  • Son2 bringing home a duck from the Asian market with the head and feet still attached.
  • Coming in from a walk in the rain ~starving and in the middle of making your green smoothie, the electricity goes out for the next hour.
  • When the bean sprouts you bought actually start sprouting in the refrigerator.
  • When you are trying to reach someone on the phone and you get transferred to 4 different people before you get the person you need to talk to.
 
 Awesome:
  • A surprise visit from son2.
  • After shopping for days for a particular item, you finally find it AND it is on sale.
  • Playing with all the new fun features of IOS7.
  • Season Premiere of my two favorite shows this week...Nashville and Grey's Anatomy.
  • Breaking out the fall candles from Bath and Body Works.  My house smells delicious!
 
Orange and Pink. 
 Such a fun and whimsical color combo.
Throw on a great statement necklace
 and 
dig out the brogues
 and 
you are ready for anything.

Let's hear about your awkward or awesome week in the comments.

I love this sweater everytime you wear it! The brogues were perfect for this outfit.

A duck with the head and feet? I think I would have freaked out, ha ha!

Love this combo and your shoes! I have yet to find a pair like them that actually fit & look good on me :( I'll just have to keep looking! I missed the season premiere of Grey's because I was working late - this is the first season that I'll actually be watching in "real time." I wasn't into it when it first came out, but gave it a shot in grad school and now looooove it and have crammed watching the last two seasons in to this past month just so I could be on track lol

Love the part about the beans in the fridge, most of my potatoes sprout arms and legs before I get around to using them!

Love these colors together and you're making me realize I need some brogues.

Brett,
So glad your awesomes seemed to have outweighed your awkwards this week! Yay, Greys Anatomy is on, thanks for reminding me.
Love the orange and pink, and I love the texture of your sweater.. love the shoes, too

Wow those are some moments. I know how you feel when you transferred to so many people on the phone about simple issue! Ugh!

Otherwise I love your jumper, brogues, and necklace together :D

ACK! I don't think I could deal with that duck. The cupcake story made me laugh.

I love this series!

I have more awkward moments than I'd like to admit. Today was the awkward moment in softball where instead of making a great play, I bobbled the ball onto my ear. Oops.

Loving your outfit and statement necklace. Have a great weekend :)

I always love this awesome and awkward posts of yours. It makes me smile and laugh.
You put: "Playing with all the new fun features of IOS7" under awesome. I would have put it under awkward and sigh. Are there that many new fun features???
