Squeeworthy: ZICO Coconut Water

The great people of ZICO coconut water were nice enough to send me a variety pack last week of their delicious and refreshing product to review and share with all of you lovely readers, and I was more than willing to do just that! ZICO is an all-natural beverage that has the 5 essential electrolytes. Do you know that ZICO coconut water has more potassium than a banana and 15 times the potassium of a typical sports drink? It’s also more hydrating than water and has zero fat, cholesterol or added sugar. And it’s my new favorite (non-alcoholic) drink of the summer!

Happy Hump Day: Michael Fassbender

So ladies, I hear you all a-twitter about Mr. Fassbender. Although I was more of a Charles Xavier kind of girl myself, I can see the draw of the good, but tortured boy gone bad. He was absolutely wonderful as Magneto, no doubt about it, and there is most certainly something attractive about him, but I just can’t get into him (har har) for some reason (I think I just don’t like his smile). But plenty of you girls can, and he’s got some really great photos to choose from on the Tumblr’s, so I decided to feature him this week! You can definitely never say that I only think of myself, now can you? 😉

I can’t believe I forgot to type up a Lovable Friday post this week!
That makes 2 weeks where I haven’t shared some of my most favorite things, and I’m so terribly sorry!

::bad, bad blogger::

I promise I’ll bring my A game next week, but for now, here is something I have re-discovered and fallen in love with all over again this week: Radiohead’s Fake Plastic Trees. It’s just one of those classics that just never gets old, and makes my heart sad and happy at the same time. I love that music can still do that to me, and I hope it always does.

Happy Hump Day: Kit Harington

Today’s hump day was a request from my dear friend, Eli, but I have to say that I was definitely 100% in agreement. I actually first heard about Game of Thrones (the book series) at last year’s Comic Con when I incidentally started chatting up the owner of TheOneRing.net (yes, I’m that kind of dork) and he filled me in on the epic stories. I actually wrote the books’ information down in my iPhone and I will never forget him telling me that when I read them, I would want to thank him profusely. And although I barely have time to read anymore (but so desperately wish I did) and am only 1/4 of the way through the first book, I have to say that he was right. It’s a fabulous story, and one of the only ones that managed to be translated accurately into an equally kick ass TV series (I’m such a sucker for a good fantasy). I am totally and completely hooked. But I digress….how adorable is newcomer, Kit Harington, that plays the absolutely lovable bastard, Jon Snow? I find myself pretty mesmerized by his lips every time he is on screen. Aren’t they just perfect? I know quite a few girls that wouldn’t mind keeping you warm at the wall, Mr. Snow. 😉

Lovable Friday!

1. Brightly colored pumps

I guess we can all thank Gwyneth Paltrow and her hot colorful heels at the Grammy’s for this new trend. And I’m not really complaining. These babies are a great substitute and at $32, you can’t deny them! Too bad I’d probably fall on my face with those serious stilettos. I’m going to have to start practicing 😉
