A special section for special times. This is what kept me covidtained? this week. Can you believe it’s week 6? Last week’s list here. Week 4 here. Week 3’s here. Week 2’s here. There is no Week 1 because we didn’t know back then.
Workouts…
- BASKETBALL. I have gotten to shoot every day and it makes me so happy. Still don’t have a backboard.
- Greasing the Groove … love the idea of picking one thing to work on (handstands) throughout the day.
- OrangeTheory free workouts! (*Ha we all know I don’t cardio but just sayin’ IF you like this shizz it’s another resource)
Challenge
- I think it’s helpful to have challenges during the pandemic time, so this week’s challenge shall be dancing every day. Dance class, dance break, dance around the kitchen, just dancing done every day for at least 10 minutes. It’s hard to be sad/mad/upset whilst dancing! Check back in next week.
Community
- MOMA art classes fo free online? Sign me up.
- Discovered this cool art site Art in Res … hope they accept my submissions!
Entertainment
- Listen to this particular podcast ep from Sorinex’s Be Legendary podcast with Justin Lascek, who I adore, or admire, and have posted about here.
- I’ve had internet issues all week, so believe it or not, I have not been watching any shows! I did watch the first two eps of the MJ doc, and like everyone else, love it. Can’t wait for this Sunday.
- I did read a beach read that shall not be named because while I loved it for all its cheese I do not recommend you read it, and I started two books, finished one I didn’t particularly like, so no recs for ya in books either.
- What have I been doing? Trying to get internet for three straight days. Dealing with Spectrum is literally more than a full-time job!!!!
Feed Me: Recipe Chain Letter
OK friends, are we really still sending me this?!
- I tried three deliveries of Hungryroot, which all but solved my grocery delivery conundrum during quarantine. The premise is that they send you groceries each week, and help you cook them with 10-minute recipes. Cool, cool. I want to love it, but it didn’t feel much different than my regular dinner combos. Sauces seemed to be hit or miss. I did love the cauliflower pasta (no surprise there) and grassfed meatballs, but the veggies aren’t organic and only some of the chicken free range. Ultimately I stopped the weekly deliveries, but I might pick them back up again at some point. Wanna try? $15 off at this link.
Other: Ecomm & Wine
Ordering food from Better Half the other night, I added a bottle of wine that I didn’t intend to drink then but wanted to have on hand. My neighbor said, “I just realized you order wine like I order clothes.” Fact.
- Austin Winery pickup! So easy and they’re so happy you’re supporting them. 20% OFF with code PICKUP, assuming you’re picking up (they’ll deliver free but bottles will be full price). I just love them so much.
- I decided to update all the mats in my house. Bath mats, door mats, all new. Random, but fresh! Loving this bathmat upgrade, and this hilarious-because-there-is-no-beach mat.
