Hello and happy Friday!
Are you waking up with that post-holiday, all-the-potluck-eats, in-need-of sunburn relief, fireworks-bangin’ hangover? If so, it’s likely you’re also feeling the need to loosen the belt a notch after my mom’s best potato salad (that I couldn’t let the 4th fly by without making at 8 pm last night), burgers, and dogs with a side of leftover sparkler sulfur-ish smell.
Me too. And nothing makes me happier.
Last Friday I talked about taking a phone-free weekend for less temptation to fall down the social media rabbit hole. And guess what? We made it! It was such a great experience with a whole lot more freedom and time to connect one on one. It’s one exercise we’ll be doing when I things are feeling out of balance.
But for now, we are back. So let’s dig into this week’s Friday Faves.
