A special section for special times. This is what kept me covidtained? this week. HOW IS IT WEEK 7? Week 6. Week 5 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…
- Still hitting up long walks with Nali, Third Monkey workouts, yoga with King Yoga & MJ’s yoga (subscribe to her youtube), and daily basketball shooting sessions.
- Added sweaty dance parties with Ryan Heffington, which are SO. FUN.
Challenge
- I’m gonna call surviving NECK POISON IVY let me repeat that is poison ivy wrapping around my neck in thick ropes my challenge for this week. PSA: It’s out in full force in Austin (got it from Nali’s LEASH). Zanfel is a miracle, just keep using it as long as it itches.
Community
- Tomorrow’s Leaders created the Crowd-Sourced COVID-19 Survival Guide in partnership with all the participants of our High-Def Happy Hour a couple of weeks ago!
Entertainment
- I am still loving absolutely nerding out on wine with the Intoxicating Conversations series, like this about aging in concrete.
- Gettin’ crafty … art just isn’t enough. Making my own hanging planters from items I found in my house (rope basket + braided suede I used to wear as a belt?) for my new indoor plant obsession, gluing random shit together that maybe shouldn’t be glued together (bird + pot = cool sculpture, right?), and backboard (to square or not to square?) coming soon!
- Just the latest in a long line of virtual events, but make it fasihon: the legendary French Vogue EIC Carine Roitfeld hosts a fashion show tomorrow.
Feed Me
- LMNT electrolytes are my new fave. More salty than my (still recommended) TruWild electrolytes, the flavors are like ocean if ocean was good for you and slightly fruity. I dilute them pretty far down but that just means each stick pack goes further!
Other: Ecomm & Wine
- Collecting wine recs throughout this and trying to figure out if Vivino + Pinterest is the best way to keep track of wines I want to try? Is there a better tool out there? Help a sister get all the good glouglou!
- Inflatable SUPs … apparently a thing I HAVE TO GET IN ON now that we’re in quarantine and can stay six feet apart but in water together. I’ve held out for awhile, but now I want this one.
- TropicFeel (yes weird name) is releasing their second style, an even-lighter-weight shoe called Cala. I backed their first style, Canyon, years ago on kickstarter and absolutely love it as a regular shoe, walking shoe, adventure shoe, travel shoe. Plus, it gets tons of compliments! You can pre-order the new Cala here. The really neat color of green I have the original Canyons in isn’t available, but peep the other colors here.
