Hiiii! Happy Friday! How are you? I hope you\u2019ve had a lovely week. It\u2019s been a busy one over here. Behind the scenes, I\u2019ve been working on a new program (more to come soon), subbed a barre class, and have the wrangling the crew. The girls are busy and thriving with school and their extracurricular activities, Lola is\u2026 on her doggy period (joy lol), and the Pilot has been traveling a lot.<\/p>\n

We were able to get in a brunch date this week at the Hills, which was amazing. They have great food and a cozy vibe.<\/p>\n

The rest of the weekend will be spent poolside, prepping for a content shoot on Monday, NCL event, and my dad\u2019s bday dinner.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time for the weekly Friday Faves roundup! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love hearing about your faves, too, so please shout out something you\u2019re loving in the comments section below.<\/p>\n

8.28 Friday Faves<\/h2>\n

Fashion, beauty, random:<\/h3>\n

Girls\u2019 night! The perfect night of wine, chatting, and creme brulee at Fleming\u2019s. The funny thing is that I hated creme brulee for YEARS and now that I\u2019ve been gluten-free for three years and it\u2019s usually one of the only gf desserts on the menu, I\u2019m now a huge fan.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

(skirt is old from Anthro but shoes are here!<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Another Olive & June nontoxic gel mani<\/a> for the win. (It only lasts about 5 days but perfect in a pinch)<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Fishing with the cousins. They came over for swimming last weekend and we went fishing at a nearby lake afterwards. It\u2019s apparently stocked with bass, catfish and trout, but we didn\u2019t catch anything. It doesn\u2019t matter; the kids still loved it.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Say Good Luck<\/em> on Netflix. I don\u2019t know if I can call it a fave because I cried like a baby, but it was beautiful and well done. Liv loved it, too.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Read, watch, listen:<\/h3>\n

I\u2019m reading this book<\/a> after one of the mediums at Miraval recommended it (after our past life regression<\/a>!) and it\u2019s blowing,my.mind.<\/p>\n

On the same note, this was an incredible podcast episode<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ok friends, who are you cheering for in Dancing with the Stars: the Next Pro<\/em>? I\u2019m team Adele but think that all of the finalists are insanely talented.<\/p>\n

Unpopular trainer opinion.<\/a><\/p>\n

Fitness, health, and good eats:<\/h3>\n

Your dog told me it would like some of this healthy homemade dog food.<\/a><\/p>\n

This fruit tart<\/a> is always a hit. I need to make one this weekend for the fam!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Interesting study about beta-glucan.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends! Have an amazing weekend and I\u2019ll see ya soon!<\/p>\n

xoxo<\/p>\n
