Sequins and Sea Breezes: Weekending

Weekending

Monday Coffee

Happy Monday dolls! We had extremely warm temperatures here in Florida this weekend so I thought the palm tree pic was appropriate. It looks like our cooler fall temps are on hold for awhile longer. I'm just hoping it cools off again before my next Disney trip! I didn't get any pool time in like I had originally wanted to but I did get some sun in so I can't complain! Linking up with the lovely Biana for our weekend recap!

On Friday I checked out a place called Noodles & Co. If you live up north you've probably heard of this place but there are only three in Orlando so I was pretty psyched to check it out. I got the Wisconsin Mac & Cheese with pulled pork and it was pretty yummy but definitely could have used more sauce. I'll probably give it another shot, I'll just try something else next time!

Saturday was the UCF vs UConn game. Man, was it such a disappointment. It's official, we are the worst team in the nation right now. It's hard to watch. And for some reason last year UConn decided to declare a rivalry against us. Even going as far as to great a trophy for the game (UCF had no prior acknowledgement of this "rivalry" and we all kinda think it's hilarious since we already have a rivalry against USF but hey, if it makes them happy I guess) and they have a clock in their locker room counting down until the next game. So weird. We ended up getting smashed by them and let's just say, I'm extremely ready for the season to be over. 

UCF vs UConn 2015

At least the sunset on the drive home was pretty!

Sunday I met up with my bestie, Kerri, for some drinks and football. Yay for the Bengals being 5-0!! It was a tough game that went into overtime but I'll take the win! The weather was gorgeous out too so it was really nice to just sit outside and relax an enjoy the day!



Hope everyone has an amazing week!!!

  8. I think good drinks and hanging with friends can help cure any bad football game? This weather was so stunning this weekend! I was just outside the whole time. I'm glad you're Bengals are starting off so strong!

  9. I feel awful that UCF is doing so bad this year, but hopefully that means you guys will come back that much stronger next year! UConn is the only team I'll root for against UCF as that's my original home team and I'll always say Go Huskies! But they're more of a basketball dynasty than football lol.

    Cheers to a fabulous week gurlie <3

  18. It's the worst feeling when your team can't seem to get it together!! But aside from that, it sounds like a great weekend!! Why do they always have to fly by so quickly?!

  21. Oh man, football seasons with teams that aren't playing very well are the worst! I've had a few like that with the Aggies, and the only thing I can tell you is that it gets better! The wine looks like the perfect way to watch a football game though!

  22. I can't believe I haven't seen your blog before. I'm also a florida girl who loves mermaids. I am more down south though. I'm from Miami. Looks like you had a fun filled football weekend. My college football team didn't do so good either. It was a great game but FSU now has a 3 year winning streak against UM. Anyways, I am so excited to be your newest follower. Happy Monday ♥

  24. I know what it's like to have rough football seasons, and it's so hard! The good thing is they usually turn things around! We used to be at the bottom of our league for decades, and now we're doing well! :) Honestly, I'm not the biggest fan of Noodles & Co either for the same reason-it just tastes bland to me.

  25. I've been meaning to check out Noodles and Co. Sounds yummy! I saw that amazing sunset on Saturday night too. And who doesn't love a good Sunday Funday? lol Looks like you and Kerri had a blast. I drank a bunch of wine with my mom after shopping lol

  26. My friends and I used to get Noodle & Co. all the time in high school...after years of not going there I had lunch at one while visiting family this summer, and it was blander than I remembered. Maybe you just need to get the right thing, or have the right person making it!

  27. The Bengals are doing amazing this year! The Lions, not so much lol! Not that it's a surprise to us anymore! Next time you're at Noodles, try their paid thai... soooo good!

  34. Oh man, it is hard when you have a rough season. At least your NFL teamed pulled out a W! I don't think we have Noodles & Co here but we have Nothing but Noodles. Anywhere that has noodles as their main food is ok with me!
