Friday Five


1. Today marked the first day of frappuccino happy hour at Starbucks. I marked the occasion with a delicious tall mocha coconut frappaccuno with just a smidge of whip cream. Delish. A perfect match to today's warm and sunny weather.


2. Moving is in full force around these parts. We're getting close to my favorite part -- being surrounded by piles and piles of boxes. And by "my favorite," I mean "the part I hate the most."


3. The ol' ten-miler is on Sunday. It should be interesting. Let's just say that my training program is about 90% mental, 9.9% taper, and %.1 percent running. I'm not looking forward to the early wake-up call on Sunday morning, but I think the run itself should be fun.

4. Given the warmer weather, we have made a few trips to Rita's lately. It's rather dangerous that the nearest Rita's is just a few blocks from our apartment! Thought last year my go-to flavor was lemon, I read in the latest issue of Philadelphia Magazine that the top-selling water ice flavor at Rita's is mango. I gave it a whirl, and it is quite delicious. I really need to make some mango sorbet at home one of these days.

5. I keep seeing recipes to Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. I think making a batch is definitely going on my schedule for this weekend. We still have a few waffle cones ready in reserve! Saveur, the Kitchn, and Food & Wine offer a bunch of great options to try.
