Friday Five!

This week's Friday Five is just a random compilation of THINGS and I think that's awesome. They are some awesome things, so I hope you enjoy!

1. Have you guys every tried Zevia? It's an all-natural, Stevia-sweetened soda that you can find in natural food stores, and I think they even sell it at some Targets! I'm a big fan of Stevia, as it's natural and the taste isn't bad, so when I found Zevia at a Whole Foods a few months ago, I was really excited to try it!

After trying the flavors that sounded good to me (I'm not a big fan of grape or cherry flavored things usually, so I skipped over those - let me know if they're worth a shot!), I decided they were good, but not quite worth paying the money for the larger packs. I had one flavor left that I just could not find: strawberry. Every time I went to any natural food store, I'd go on a wild hunt for it, but always came up empty. There came a point when I was even willing to buy a six pack of Target - but they didn't have the strawberry flavor.

Well, a few days ago, I discovered this local natural food store that's only a few minutes away from my apartment, and lo and behold - strawberry Zevia! And it was a great price - $1 for one can, as opposed to paying around $2 for a can at Whole Foods - so I grabbed it and stuck it in the fridge for the perfect moment to try it.

That moment happened to be this afternoon when I got home from campus. And WOW. It's amazing. I think I found my flavor.



It tastes like someone just threw strawberries and Sprite in a blender and then just took out the solid pieces. It's SO GOOD.

2. I just wanted to link you to two of my absolute favorite organizing blogs: I Heart Organizing & A Bowl Full of Lemons! I have found myself scrolling through these blogs for hours on multiple occasions, so check them out!

3. I have a busy weekend ahead of me! My UCF Knights are playing the South Carolina Gamecocks tomorrow at noon, which is one of the biggest games we've ever played - and we're finally being nationally televised! My parents and little brother have season tickets to the games, so we'll be going together and it is sure to be insane. I can't wait!


On Sunday, So Noted will be attending and performing at a youth chorus workshop all afternoon, and then we have our monthly potluck that night! It's going to be a busy day for sure, but I certainly don't mind spending time with my a cappella group. :)

4. Speaking of So Noted, I just want to say that I'm having the time of my life being a part of the group! I've been a member for over a year, but there's just some new exciting feeling within the group that is making rehearsing and performing a blast. They make me reaaaallllyyyy happy!


5. Last but not least, my planner somehow became wildly colorful this week - so I have to show you all!


And that's it for the Friday Five! I hope you guys have an awesome weekend. :)
