Happy Friday, friends! Welcome to Friday Favorites (a link-up posting every 1st and 3rd Friday.) I’m glad you could join us. π
I love Instagram and often I’ll get a question about something I showed in my Instastories. So today I am going to answer some of the recent questions you’ve asked me about items you saw on my feed. Here are this week’s favorites…

This Week’s Fave Question:
Where did you get that icon?
We have lots of icons in our house and this icon of the Sacred Heart in our entryway is from the Printery House.
You can’t see it fully in this photo, but we also have on the prayer table their Holy Family icon.

This Week’s Fave Question:
Where did you get that dress?
As you know, I am not a dress person. I grudgingly wear dresses two days out of the year – Christmas and Easter – and that’s only to please my mother-in-law.
If you read my blog or follow me on social media, you know that I actually found a dress I liked for my brother’s wedding and it was a big deal that it was a bright floral pink and not a -blend-into-the-background black.
I loved the dress so much and got so many compliments, I thought I’d try another dress for Bella’s Confirmation. I chose this one.
That too was a hit and I purchased a third dress for my mother-in-law’s upcoming birthday party. (Three new dresses in less than 6 months, I think that will totally count as my present to her.)
There were a number of people asking where I bought the dresses. They all came from Target! Target is my happy place and they have always had cute clothes in regular sizes and so-so clothes for plus sizes. Well, not anymore. There are a lot of cute options, especially in dresses. I especially love that some of these dresses (such as the black one with white and pink stripes) goes from size small to plus. (Although sizes may be limited at the time of this post.)
So maybe it wasn’t that I wasn’t a dress person. I just hadn’t found a dress I really liked yet. π
(One note to Target: The casual shoes don’t do justice to how much cuter the dresses looks with nicer shoes. If you want variety, show it dressed up and dressed down!)

This Week’s Fave Question:
Did you make that chicken? Do you have a recipe?
Sadly, I cannot take credit for these delicious Grilled Mediterranean-Style Chicken Skewers.

The brand is West End Cuisine and I purchased them from Costco. You just heat, serve and enjoy!

Where did you get that rosary?

This Week’s Fave Question:
Where did you get Brian’s beard balm? What are his favorites?
I purchased Brian’s beard balm from Catholic Balm Co. As soon as I convinced brian to try growing a beard, I purchased a bunch of these. He (and I) have been hooked ever since. His favorite smells are Chrism and Holy Smokes. If you get on their mailing list you’ll also find out about limited edition smells during certain holidays and feast days. As the one who gets to smell him, I am a big fan! π

This Week’s Fave Question:
Where did you get that cute Star Wars backpack?
I love this bag! I use it for every trip to Disneyland (the frequency is increasing) and whenever I go to one of my kids’ field trips. It is called Loungefly Star Wars Tattoo Flash Print Backpack and I bought it at Amazon.
