Five Favorite Feelings v.1

When you wake up and think your alarm is going to go off soon but then you check the clock and it's only 3 or 4 AM, so you snuggle back under the covers and go to sleep again.

When you really make someone laugh.

When you're in comfy workout clothes but don't have anywhere else to be so you take a shower and then change into different comfy workout clothes, minus the sports bra.

When you're trying out a new recipe because you think it might work and it does.

When you clean the kitchen before you go to bed, but you forget about it because you usually don't clean the kitchen before you go to bed; and then you wake up to a semi-surprise clean kitchen.

What are five of your favorite feelings?

Five Favorite Songs v.3

Five more favorite songs (right now), almost a year later:

  • I Want to Feel Alive, The Lighthouse And The Whaler
    • On my Discover Weekly playlist this week and I've listened to it approximately 39472 times so far.
  • Older and Taller, Regina Spektor
    • I love this whole album, but I think this is my favorite song out of the whole thing.
  • Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I WantThe Smiths
    • Perfectly melancholy to play over and over on a fall afternoon. I never really listened to The Smiths but then I watched 500 Days of Summer and too much Gilmore Girls in the same week.
  • 666, Bon Iver
    • I'm trying to be open-minded about the new Bon Iver album but I'm still getting used to it. This song reminds me the most of the previous album, which is why I think I like it the most.
  • No Room in Frame, Death Cab for Cutie
    • Ben Gibbard for President.

PS I love the idea of keeping up with a "Five Favorites" series, but I want to include more than just songs. I asked for suggestions on Twitter and so far have gotten responses of books, beauty products, snacks, fashion finds, and TV shows. Anything else you'd like me to include? Let me know!

Five Favorite Songs v.2
Five Favorite Songs | Freckled Italian

I've been meaning to share more music here since the first 5 Favorite Songs post last spring, so without further ado I'm sharing not My Top Five Favorite Songs, but five more favorite songs:

  • Hello, Adele
    • No explanation needed. I don't know anyone who isn't playing this one on repeat.
  • Save the Last Dance for Me, Michael Bublé
    • Never fails to put me in a good mood. We actually played this as the last song at our wedding, which was so fun. I've also been listening to his Christmas albums nonstop for the past two weeks and it's been awesome.
  • Patron Saint, Regina Spektor
    • I think this is my favorite song on this album. I love everything Regina does, but this is one that I can listen to over and over again.
  • Below My Feet, Mumford & Sons
    • Perfect for moody winter days. I love it so much.
  • Sæglópur, Sigur Rós
    • While we're on the subject of moody winter days. I love Sigur Rós when I'm working because the words are super subtle and also in another language, so it doesn't mess up my concentration.
