Busy Philipps loves food (and margaritas) and therefore we love her even more.
As we gear up for the premiere of Busy Tonight later this month—on Oct. 28 to be exact—we’ve been on a deep dive into all the things that make the actress so amazing and unique.
For example, her love of pink locks and hilarious displays for Elf on the Shelf every Christmas, which she proudly posts on Instagram each year. In addition to being a killer actress with roles on Dawson’s Creek, Cougar Town and recently in I Feel Pretty, the 39-year-old star has become an Instagram superstar that we can’t help but talk about on a daily basis.

Our favorite thing about Philipps’ social media account is her clear love for food, and lots of it.
No matter what she’s eating, or drinking (it’s usually margaritas), she loves to share pictures of herself with the food. No, she’s not a regular food poster, she is a cool food poster and we double tap pretty much all of her snaps.
Perhaps we not-so-secretly want to be Philipps, or maybe we’re just intrigued by tasty treats, pretty cocktails and witty captions. Either way, the talk show host’s Instagram account is food porn status and worthy of a follow by everyone.
Because we love her food and drink snaps so much, we rounded up her most Insta-worthy foodie photos for you to ooh and aah over as you wait to see Philipps host her own late-night series on E!
It’s worth a look, we promise.
Just don’t scroll on an empty stomach, because happy hour desires and food envy are sure to follow!
Mellow Yellow
Busy Philipps is our hero for somehow managing to match her retro dress to her yellow soup. It’s funky, strange, and yet so cool.
Summertime Sips
“They have a drink here that’s half cucumber Marg/half Cora beer. You can go ahead and forward my mail. Byeeeeeee,” Philipps wrote on this photo while on vacation this August and we want to go here ASAP.
Champs for Champs
“It’s 5 o’clock somewhere. Like here. In my kitchen. It’s actually almost 5:30 so I guess technically I’m late,” the actress wrote on her champagne snap.

I Scream for (Melted) Ice Cream
Soft serve fail! “When you try to be fun & order soft serve in a cone but it melts as soon as they hand it to you and you feel like it’s a metaphor for life,” Philipps posted in July and we can so relate.
Wine Not?
Philipps posing with giant glasses of wine is our ultimate weekend inspiration.
Margs Forever
If there is one thing we know about the Busy Tonight host it’s that she is all about margaritas and chips and salsa, which inadvertently makes her our spirit animal.

Pink Perfection
It might not be food porn, but this rose-colored ensemble paired with a glass of rosé is what millennial pink dreams are made of.
Jelly Bean Joy
Taking a picture with a jar of jelly beans might seem odd, but you can’t tell us that you don’t want to eat jelly beans now that you’ve seen it.
Glitter Snack
“When life gives you glittery popcorn, YOU F**KING EAT IT,” Philipps said in May and no truer words have ever been spoken.

In spring 2018, the I Feel Pretty actress revealed that hot dog is her favorite meat and we can’t fault her for living her truth.
Vacation Vibes
Fact: Snow cones make everything better.

Tequila on My Mind
Margaritas are always a good idea based on Philipps’ Instagram account, so why argue with her?
Pizza Is Life

Cotton Candy Craze
If you go to Disneyland and don’t eat cotton candy, did you even really go?
Tacos With Friends
“This is not who I am now. THIS IS WHO I’VE ALWAYS BEEN,” Philipps captioned this snap and we are all in on this taco and Friends aesthetic.
Bang Bang
In October 2017, the Cougar Town alum shared this picture of her in the morning to show her followers the real Busy. Our takeaway is that the actress loves Bulletproof coffee and pink and therefore we’re going to buy Bulletproof coffee and wear pink ASAP.

Green Goddess
While attending the Panorama Music Festival, the blonde beauty managed to find the Matcha bar on site and of course posed with her victory cup to prove it.
Milkshake for Two
Sometimes you just want to share a milkshake instead of going it alone and we’re OK with that.
Dessert Buddies
Loving dessert runs in the family as you can see from the looks on both Philipps and her husband Marc Silverstein’s faces in this photo.

When in New York City, the 39-year-old actress always finds time for Big Gay Ice Cream.

When Philipps isn’t working, she’s spending time with her girls and making memories like she did when she took daughter Birdie to San Francisco and did a Williams Sonoma cooking class in 2016.

Get yourself a mom who can make you a pink lemonade cake like a pro.

Taco Heaven
In 2015, the birthday girl celebrated in style with her perfect meal…and of course she shared the aftermath! “Maybe this looks like the opposite of food porn, but this is what a fully satisfied dinner table looks like. All I ever want for my birthday dinner is margs and chips and salsa,” Philipps captioned the pic.
Cake Queen
So, Philipps made this cake. We repeat, she made this cake!
