Happy Friday! I hope you all had a good week and survived the blizzard (Chicagoans that is). Looking forward to the weekend! As always, here is this week’s Friday Five:
ONE | I met some girlfriends, including Beth from yesterday’s post, at Summer House Santa Monica for Restaurant Week on Monday. I had some delicious fish tacos which made me feel like I was somewhere tropical. Sadly, their summer countdown wall reminded us we still have 137 more days until summer.
TWO | Speaking of yesterday’s post, in case you missed it I kicked off my new Chicago Neighborhood Guide series. Every couple of weeks I will be featuring a different neighborhood as told from a local’s point of view. If you would like to be featured, email me!
THREE | Did you see the exciting news from Starbucks? Starting February 17th, they will be offering coconut milk in all stores as another non-dairy milk option! Right now they only have soy milk. I love coconut milk and think it will be the perfect addition to my iced coffee this summer!
FOUR | Speaking of coffee, did you see that Chick-fil-A is offering FREE coffee the entire month of February? You can get a free small coffee or medium iced coffee all month long with no purchase necessary! Of course, how could you realistically go to a Chick-fil-A and just order coffee?
FIVE | Have you heard of The Dropbox Film? It is a documentary about a Korean pastor who takes in and raises unwanted babies dropped in a box at his house in Seoul, South Korea. It will be shown in theaters March 3-5, 2015 and you can purchase tickets online. I remember reading an article about this pastor a couple of years ago so I am excited to see the film. For those of you who know me well know that orphans and international adoption are things that have been on me heart since I was a teenager. The work that this pastor is doing is incredible and I am so grateful there are people like him in the world.
Have a fantastic Friday and a great weekend! 🙂
Linking up with Christina, April, Natasha, Darci, Karli, and Amy.
Is the iced coffee good? That is amazing. I love Summer House Santa Monica 🙂
I like their iced coffee! And I am so excited for coconut milk! Maybe almond milk will be next!
