High Five for Friday!

It is always a good day when Friday rolls around! I am doing the linkup with Lauren as usual! This is an uneventful, pictureless post today. This is why I need a smartphone.

1. I went to the Pens game on Tuesday and sat 5 rows off the the glass. It was beyond amazing!! There was an incredible hockey fight right in front of us. *As much as I hate fighting of any kind, I do love a good hockey fight!* Plus, Jussi Jokinen scored a hat trick!

2. One of my good friends is getting married tomorrow so I am going to create a spa day at home to get my skin and nails ready. (I'm not in the wedding, but it is always nice to look your best!)

3. I really, really want to go to another Celtic Thunder concert. One was just not enough.

4. I always can't wait to receive my Birchbox and Ipsy bags, but this month is killing me! I want to get them so bad!!

5. In 1 week college basketball season starts!!

What did you love about this week? Leave me a comment and let me know!

In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

*Warning: this will be a long post, and picture heavy!* :) Strictly based on the title alone I should have caught your attention! Sunday was the Alex Goot concert. It was at bar in Pittsburgh, and there were about 5 acts to the show! You definitely got your money's worth! I went with my cousin, Allie (you can find her blog here! ) and it was just a fun girls night! The show was in a bar which used to be an old church, so it was very pretty inside. We got there around 6, parked, and only had to stand in line for 10 minutes before we got to go inside. When we went in, we got our tickets scanned and BAM , there was Landon Austin and Luke Conard at their merchandise table. So, because I somehow gained oodles of confidence*, Allie and I went over and I said "Hi Landon!" He said "hi" back and asked me my name. I had a card for him so I handed it to him and he asked if he should open it now or later. I said that it was up to him. We moved on to Luke Conar...
