Embracing the Weekend: Celebrating Life and Fitness
Hello, wonderful readers! As we dive into another Friday, many of us are dreaming about the weekend. How about you? I’m personally excited to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday, teach a barre class, and indulge in a brunch catch-up with a friend. Simple, fulfilling plans are what Fridays are all about, right?
The Calm After the Retail Storm
This week felt refreshing compared to the whirlwind we experienced with the recent sales events—EquiLife, Prime Days, and the Nordstrom sale all rolled into one! I aimed to share my preferred products without overwhelming you. Your support through shopping via my links means so much. Remember to enter the wellness giveaway by Sunday night for a chance to win a Lumebox!
This Week’s Friday Faves
Let’s jump into my favorite finds derived from this week! There are some gems to explore across categories ranging from fashion and beauty to health. The Nordstrom sale continues, and I’ve gathered a list of bestselling items that I can’t recommend enough:
- Hanky Panky underwear—my daily go-to for comfort.
- A delightful set of bangles to elevate any outfit.
- The best wireless bra that combines comfort and style.
- Fleece pants that feel like a hug on chilly days.
- A travel-friendly backpack, perfect for fitness gear.
- Classic tote for work, travel, or simply lounging.
- ADORABLE kids’ fleece hoodie to keep your little ones cozy.
- Sexy but classy lingerie for special occasions.
- This friendly cleanser, gentle enough even for the eyes.
- A ridiculously cozy sweater you won’t want to take off.
- And yes, I’m already thinking ahead—ordered this for Liv for Christmas!
Family Time and Memorable Meals
Last Sunday, my family gathered for dinner, a delightful evening filled with swimming, street tacos, and margaritas. It’s moments like these that remind us of the joy of togetherness while enjoying delicious food. And speaking of which, I made barbacoa tacos, shredded chicken, and a simple yet flavorful recipe for Instant Pot Mexican rice. I’ll share that one soon; it’s too good not to!
Creative Calm: My Crochet Adventure
In the spirit of self-care, I found myself finger crocheting a blanket this week! Inspiration struck from my daughter's recent crochet obsession. It became a lovely way to relax while catching up on TV, steering clear of mindless scrolling. If you’re curious about starting, check out the yarn I used along with this fun tutorial!
What to Read, Watch, and Listen to This Weekend
As we settle into this weekend, I finally made it to Season 7 of ‘Younger.’ I’m worried it may not conclude as I want. Should I finish it or call it quits? What are your thoughts? On another note, let’s discuss the summer books that are currently sparking joy in our lives. What reads are on your list? I’d love to hear your recommendations!

Lastly, sleep—such a vital aspect of our overall wellness. For a refreshing twist, here are some innovative sleep strategies that can transform your nights. Good sleep supports your fitness journey, so let's make it a priority!
