Happy Friday!  Let’s get right to it – after a week off, here are my Friday Favorites from the past seven days:

On TV – Once Upon a Time is back, but only one episode left! I can’t wait to see how they end this first season. Will Pinocchio tell more lies?  Will Emma start to believe? I’m finally caught up on Celebrity Apprentice – and I must say – I don’t like ANY of the five remaining contestants!  Clay Aiken for the win?  Lisa, Aubrey, Arsenio, ugh!  I guess Clay is the best choice at this point. Mad Men– poor, poor Sally Draper.  The scene where she came out ready to go to the award ceremony…all Don could see was mini-Bettes.  So grown-up, too bad Julia Ormond, her step-granny, ruined her more than she already is (if that’s even possible!) And I only have one question about Dancing with the Stars – WHO is voting for Half-Pint??!??

Ok, ok … my favorite this week is:

• Scandal – insider deals, presidential affairs, illegitimate babies, plane crash investigations, and now murder.  The title says it all.  Kerry Washington as Olivia Pope.  This show is climbing in my ratings book. Shonda Rhimes does it again.

On the sales rack –

• Macy’s – great Mother’s Day Sale items from fashion, items for the home, jewelry, handbags and much more – save even more when you use the promo code MOM.

On the page  –

• Real Simple – Kooky Cookie Jars – 6 Unique Cookie Jars – I like rare cookie jars (not cookie-cutter ones!) I have a Cookie Monster and a Queen of Hearts – you know I love the owl one in this article.
  

Places to go – 

• Robin Hood at Arden Theatre Company. Recommended for ages 5 and up.  An entertaining, awesome live theatre experience. Plus a Target 2 for 1 deal makes it affordable fun for the whole family.
