Hi friends! Happy Friday! How was Halloween? We got back home just in time to celebrate. The fam came over, I made some tacos, and we trick-or-treated around the neighborhood. It was low key and lovely; the perfect celebration after a whirlwind of Orlando adventures.
(On our cruise, 9 of us were Wizard of Oz characters. Please take a moment to appreciate the Pilot’s Lollipop Guild costume lol)
I have SO much to say about the trip (the Reimagining Health Summit and our Disney cruise) and will put everything together into some recap posts next week. My plan was to finish them on the plane but I ended up sleeping all the way home! I was completely zonked.
This weekend is going to be a lot of fun, too: it’s the Pilot’s change of command (after three years as commander, he’s done!), our school auction, and a big event for National Charity League. Here we gooooo. I’d love to hear what you have going on!
(Wanted to share some pics of the ofrenda I put together for this year’s Día de los Muertos. I wish I could keep it up all year!)
*Also a friendly reminder to VOTE! Election Day is the last day to vote but I’m going to go today after I pick up the crew from school.
It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party. This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.
11.1 Friday Faves
Fashion + beauty + random:
My lips have been super dry with the colder weather – Tucson went from 105 to 70 overnight – and this is my go-to lip balm.
J Crew is 30% off right now and I’m looking at these straight leg jeans.
This dress!! I got it from Rent the Runway for the awards dinner at the summit, and kind of want to keep it. Perfect to dress up for a classier event, a dinner, or even dress down for work. The fabric was so dreamy, too. In stock here in black.
Read, watch, listen:
Plucking my way through Outlive. It’s very good, and I love how thorough it is, but it’s verryyyyyy dry so far. I like when authors inject a little personality, wit or humor into their work, and this one is taking me forever. Definitely ready for some fluffy fiction after this one. 😉
What tattoo would you get? I’m definitely one and done over here… and honestly regret mine a little. I like it sometimes, but also wish I could remove it for fancier events. Usually my hair hides it.
Updating your life and career to match who you are now.
Fitness, health, life, and good eats:
These bars! They were out of stock for a while because EquiLife was sourcing a new baker… and now they’re back and the texture is even better. They’re soft and cake-like, with all real ingredients, and the kids love them, too.
The chocolate is my fave, but we all love the apple cinnamon as well. If you place an order here over $149, you get a box for free! I would do a detox kit to prepare for our January detox, a full-spectrum magnesium, and an extra container of Daily Nutritional Support (I have this every single day). My code is FITNESSISTA10 if it’s your first time ordering!
The Therasage weighted blanket. I don’t think I’ve ever given this one a proper shout out on the blog, but I LOVE this thing, especially in the colder weather. I’m the type of person who can’t sleep without a real duvet – I always ask for extra blankets when hotels have just sheets on the bed, and I pack my travel weighed blanket- and the extra weight helps me get better sleep at night. If you’re an anxious person, or find yourself tossing and turning, I can’t recommend it enough. This one has crystals instead of beads, and added EMF protection. Use the code FITNESSISTA for a discount!
It just stays on my side of the bed like this:
GLP-1 impact on muscle retention.
Thank you so much for stopping by the blog today!
