Friday Favorites: Hulu

December 2, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Happy Friday friends! I spend all day yesterday thinking it was Wednesday, so it’s a pleasant surprise that today is Friday. I spent yesterday doing some work, house cleaning, and I also did some ab work and arm work, you know, things I can do in the boot. Today I plan to do more of the same, and finish hanging our outside Christmas lights so I can have some picture for yall this weekend. Since I don’t have them yet, here is a fun picture of frozen Bella in her evil sweater. Yes friends, she stayed frozen like this for a minute or two until I fixed it. Poor baby.

I haven’t done Friday Favorites in a couple weeks so I figured it was time for another round! So what am I loving this week? Hulu! Well, actually, I love Hulu every week, but since I have been in the boot, I have tried to stay on the couch a bit more because it’s so cumbersome. When I need a break from work I can’t go run, so instead I watch reruns of Desperate housewives (my new addiction. Why have I never watched this before?) Today I caught up on last week’s Biggest Loser, which really made me miss running!

You can even pay for Hulu plus and watch even more shows, on more devices, in HD with no advertisements. I have been tempted to pay for Hulu plus for awhile but haven’t taken the plunge. Has anyone done this? What do you think? I may try the one week free trial.

Hulu will even recommend new shows for you based on what you watch, and it also will tell you what the most recent and most popular episodes are for any given day.

Hulu is especially great in the summer when all of my favorite shows are on hiatus until fall comes, and there is no football to watch (sad times for Heather and Bobby!)

But not anymore, since I discovered Hulu a year of so ago. Happiness!!!

I have some mad ups, yo.

QOYD: Do you watch television online? Do you use Hulu or another site? which one?

    YES! I use HULU all the time. I am never home when my favorite shows are on, so I always catch them online when I can 🙂

    Just stopping by to say that I miss you! I really wish you lived closer so we could hang out again. Hope that things get better with your foot soon. My husband was in a boot/cast about a month ago (tendonitis) but he is feeling better now. He is going to run/walk the half marathon with me in Vegas on Sunday!
    Hey, when I get back I want to talk to you about pricing a Disney vacation for the first week of April. We are flexible on dates, number of days but may want to meet my sister’s family there sometime that week.

    I love Hulu, too! We subscribe to Hulu plus but unfortunately, they still play commercials. :0(
    Hope you are doing ok with the boot!

    I LOVE Hulu and I do pay for plus, since a lot of shows have moved to that. However I don’t have cable so 7.99/month is better than 59.99/month. Ha! I DO hate the commercials though, I wish there was a way to watch like 2-3 mins of them at a time to bank your time. I never realized how precious they were during a show though when I need to use the RR. B/c Apparently I don’t know how to pause? Anyway! Enjoy your weekend!

      I hate the commercials too. I TRY to remember to just DVR things so I dont have to watch commercials but I never remember!

Pigeon Forge Snow is the perfect family activity no matter the time of year: real snow, comfy temps, and endless winter fun even in the middle of summer. From tubing and snow forts to sweet treats at the candy bar, this is one spot my kid never wants to leave.

Plus, it’s just minutes from Dollywood, the Titanic Museum, and Dolly’s Stampede, so it fits right into any Smoky Mountain trip.

So many people I know follow and like posts and st So many people I know follow and like posts and stories from content creators, but when it’s people they know in real life….forget about it. All of the sudden, we just don’t need or deserve the support. We just get lurkers. 💔 

Women, I encourage you in 2026 to find a table where women champion other women. And I encourage all the ladies here to be a girl’s girl. There is room for everyone, and we ALL need a little support, even those that look like they have it all together. 

Let’s commit to helping each other on AND offline. A simple smile, an “I love your dress” or “your kid did great in the school play” or “hang in there, you got this!” Goes a long way. 

I will never understand people going out of their way to intentionally bypass a person online or in real life. People matter. It’s a tough time of year for a lot of people, so let’s all act like the friends we claim to be and be there for each other however we can. ❤️

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️
