It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere + Giveaway Winner

December 6, 2012 By Laura

I’ve decided to start spiking my morning coffee.

 

In my dreams…

This morning I’m on the earliest flight to Dallas…. and tonight I’m flying back on the last flight home.  Shoot me now.  But you didn’t come here to listen to me complain, did you?

Instead of having happy hour, let’s talk about happy things… because every massage week deserves a happy ending.

 

5 Happy Friday Thoughts

 

1. Calee designed my bangin’ new logo (you may have seen it here on my #WorkItOut feature).  I cannot wait to begin rolling it out all over the place! 

 

2. Kristina @ Spa Bettie tried out my TVP “Oatmeal” and loved it!  It kind of made me feel like a rockstar since she is so brilliant in the kitchen.  Check out her Chocolate Mint creation:

 

3. Playing with my food makes me happy.  P28 Protein Bagel with peanut flour spread and a bacon face.  Apple slice hair.

Yes, I’m 29, I live alone, and I amuse myself by making faces in my breakfast. #reachingnewlows

 

4. Last night I met up with Lee and Tina for sushi at Sushi House Hayakawa on Buford Highway (Atlanta’s ethnic food haven).  It was all tasty, but my favorite was the spicy tuna roll pictured on the left.

Side note: everyone with Tina luck on her Half this weekend!

 

5. And the big announcement… I finally got my new car!!!  It’s my first “space gray” car, but my 3rd BMW.

What can I say… I’m brand loyal. 

________________________________________________________________________________________

One additional piece of happiness for someone… the winner of the OpenSky giveaway has been selected!!!

Congratulations to…

 

Melissa!

Send me your name and email, and I’ll get that over to the Open Sky crew ASAP.

Sorry, I don’t think they sell the puppy on your wish list… 😉

 

For everyone else, here’s a little something for you to join OpenSky and receive $20 and Free Shipping!

Everyone go tell my girl Heather Happy 28th Birthday!!!

What is your happy ending this week?

Do you play with your food?

    Wowza to your new BMW!! My boyfriend had two BMW’s… a 325is (which he totaled .. with me in it haha not fun!) and then an M3. He loooooved his BMW’s so much. Probably too much 😉 but they are good cars! His younger siblings started driving and how his brother has a z3 (I think?) coupe and his sister has a 325is. …. I drive a Chevy s10… fun times :p

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:38 AM

  17. Parita @ myinnershakti says

    December 7, 2012 at 8:31 AM

    And it’s Friday…need I say more?!!

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:39 AM

  18. Kat says

  19. Kristina says

    December 7, 2012 at 8:38 AM

    nice car – I love it.

    and be ready for more TVP from me – girlfriend, you have created a TVP monster? I.Cannot. Stop.

    safe travels – Jason used to do this twice a week – up at 4 for the early jet and back on the late one same day – (company jet so he got to skip the airport shenanigans, but still…) long days for ALL of us. it’s FRIDAY, yay!

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:40 AM

      I’m so excited to see what TVP creations you make! You are one of the most creative people I know. Maybe a #strangebutgood TVP combo? 😉

      • Kristina says

        December 10, 2012 at 12:53 AM

        ha! you know, I’ll probably come up with one JUST FOR strange but good… 😉

  20. Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says

    December 7, 2012 at 9:11 AM

    The new logo is so fun!

  21. Allie says

    December 7, 2012 at 9:11 AM

    Space Gray! I want one just for the color name. Love the logo, love the car, love that you’re a rockstar, love that I’m not the only one that plays with my food. So shitty flight or no? I’m diggin’ your week recap.

  22. RavieNomNoms says

    December 7, 2012 at 9:14 AM

    I don’t know how many times I have said, “it is 5’oclock somewhere”. haha, that doesn’t make me a lush right? I love the new logo

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:41 AM

      Lush? Never! 🙂

  23. Amanda @ Romancing the Unusual says

    December 7, 2012 at 9:16 AM

    Love your new car! I’m in the market for a new car and have been researching like crazy. I’m dreading a car payment, though! 😉

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:42 AM

      What are you looking at? Payments are never fun… but new cars sure are. 🙂

  24. Calee says

    December 7, 2012 at 9:28 AM

    love the new car!! Is this a lease or an own? And did you man up and get a stick? (Mark wants to know of course). 🙂

    Love the new logo. Actually, I’m more happy that YOU love it.

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:44 AM

      Lease – I get to bored to own cars. 3 years and I need a new toy. 🙂 No stick… driving in ATL traffic with a manual es no bueno. (Sorry, Mark….)

      You rock. The end.

  25. Amanda @ .running with spoons. says

    December 7, 2012 at 10:02 AM

    Being the car junkie that I am, I just have to say very nice choice 😉 And I don’t play with my food so much anymore, but I remember making mountains and valleys in my mashed potatoes as a young kid, and then using peas and carrots to make forests and houses 😀

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:45 AM

      Thanks! I’ve always been a car junkie myself. 🙂

      I used to do that with the butter in my oatmeal! So. Much. Butter.

  26. Linz @ Itz Linz says

    December 7, 2012 at 10:27 AM

    hehe i love playing with my food and making it pretty!!

  27. Ed says

    December 7, 2012 at 11:00 AM

    Nice ride 😉 I like the silver i have to say

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:45 AM

      Thanks! I’m really liking it – doesn’t’ show the dirt as much.

  28. Alex @ therunwithin says

    December 7, 2012 at 11:17 AM

  29. Stacy @ Stacy Eats says

    December 7, 2012 at 11:23 AM

    Love the new logo and the car!! Super exciting!
    Safe travels today. 🙂

  30. Michelle says

    December 7, 2012 at 12:56 PM

    My food isn’t exciting enough to play with. Womp womp 🙁 Congrats on the new car! I too am pretty loyal once I find a brand of pretty much anything I like…Cars, vitamins, protein powders, jeans, shoes. As Martha Stewart says “It’s a good thing.”
    The new logo = fab.

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:47 AM

      I forgot about Martha’s “good thing.” This calls for a blog post! 🙂

  31. Heather (Where's the Beach) says

    December 7, 2012 at 2:17 PM

    Ooohh new car – always exciting!! Safe traveling!

  32. Laura says

    December 7, 2012 at 2:54 PM

    Wow- love the logo! She’s so talented. I especially love that there is a “weird but good” line on there. Yay for the new car, too!! Hope you survive the travel day- sounds pretty awful.

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:48 AM

      She really is! Calee’s working on a blogger logo monopoly. 🙂

  33. Hannah says

    December 7, 2012 at 3:13 PM

    Your logo is incredible. I love it in all the ways.

  34. Lisa says

    December 7, 2012 at 3:28 PM

    The logo looks amazing! I didn’t know you were 29, you look so young! I thought you were my age ha ha. Yay for new cars, I love the bmw too. I can’t see myself going with another brand! I haven’t played with my food in way too long, now I want to make a smiley face sandwich. We’re so cool;)

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:49 AM

      I know, I know…. I’m OLD. Bah.

  35. Carol @ Lucky Zucca says

    December 7, 2012 at 3:29 PM

    Better yet, who doesn’t play with their food? And if not, what’s wrong with them? Love the new logo and multiple hair colors (mine changes with the seasons) and congrats on the new car. I’d say my happy ending is being done with the work week, except I brought a ton of work home with me for the weekend, so my happy ending would not be traveling to Dallas and back in a single day. Man, that’s rough. I feel for ya.

    • Laura says

      December 10, 2012 at 12:50 AM

      I like the way you think!

      I have seasonal hair too. Dark in the winter, blond-ish in the summer. It s a rule like no white after Labor Day. 😉

  38. Nadiya says

    December 8, 2012 at 9:19 PM

    Woah! Lovely car 😛 I kind of have a thing for BMWs too, maybe I’ll have one one day ^^ I think I’ll pick up some TVP next time I’m at Whole Foods… your TVP oatmeal has been tempting m for too long 😛

  39. Brittany @ Delights and Delectables says

    December 9, 2012 at 3:51 PM

    Love the new logo and congrats on the new car!! I love it!!!

  40. Heather @ Kiss My Broccoli says

    December 12, 2012 at 7:04 AM

    Aww, thanks for the birthday shout out…even though I suck and am only JUST NOW seeing this! Haha! Love the new wheels! Does she have a name yet? You know you HAVE to name her! Oh, and your bagel breakfast…Wilson…totally WILSON! Lol

    • Laura says

      December 12, 2012 at 8:34 AM

      I thought Wilson too! I can’t believe no one else called it out. 🙂

    Oh…this Bavarian man is very happy to see that your new car is something from my Motor Werks. 🙂
