I’m doing this thing where I take two full days off from everything workout-related most weeks, and I think it will be a key part of my plan to run forever. In my 20s, there were times I would run 7 days a week, and running ‘easy’ wasn’t part of my vocabulary. Injuries ended that type of training! I love rest days sprinkled in whenever I want now, and they make me even more eager for my runs.
I went to breakfast yesterday with two of my college best friends. Kneader’s French Toast is something you need to experience at least once in your life.

Every lego we own is out currently.

For dinner, we had sweet potato bowls with avocado, ground beef, this corn salsa, cucumbers, and spinach.

Now for the favorites:
*I have such a good code for American Eagle–> use AESHOPMY20 for 20% off, and it is stackable with other discounts/sales. Right now ALL shorts are 30-50% off! All Tees & Tanks are on sale starting at $9.99! Plus, 40% Off All Women’s Dresses! I love these shorts, and these shorts, this tee (below), this tank. Brooke has this tank in almost every pattern and this dress in both colors. #ad

*THESE TANKS FROM MADEWELL ARE SO GREAT.

*Try to name a better gummy bear. It’s impossible.

*The softest Amazon pajamas you will ever own. Top and Bottom. I need more colors. They are so lightweight (I am a hot sleeper!) that even I can sleep in them.

*I came across this gorgeous jewelry store (here is their site) and wanted each and every thing they had. If I had to explain them in a few words, it would be-> summer, beachy, unique, amazing quality. I just wanted to tell you about them because I’m mad I hadn’t heard of them for 40 years of my life. Huggies that I bought.

*You know you are 40 when you are really excited about new cutting boards. These beauties clean up so easily, grip well, and don’t contain any microplastics. Your knife doesn’t leave any marks on the board (my previous ones did with a butter knife ((slight exaggeration)). Here is the mini one and the larger one.

*This book is playing in my ears every moment of yard work and house work this week. One of our friends doesn’t have much time left here due to breast cancer, and when I heard this is her favorite book, I started listening right away.
