Hello friends! Happy Friday! What are you planning to do this weekend?
Aloha from one of our favorite places! We’re here for a couple of weeks to enjoy the beach, go shopping, go to Hawaiian parties, and enjoy all the poke bowls. 🙂
I’ll share all the details in a future post, but here are some photos from the adventures.
(Here’s a recap of our last trip to Waikiki. If you have any recommendations, I’d love to hear them! Especially if you know of any gluten-free malasadas. Thanks, folks!)
It’s time for the weekly Friday Favorites Party! This is where I share my favorite finds from the week and from around the internet. I always love to hear what your favorites are too, so please mention something you like in the comments section below.
Before we begin, congratulations to our giveaway winners!
Amy D. and Julia! (I will be contacting our winners to send them their gift packages.)
Stay tuned for our August giveaway! 🙂
7.26 Friday Favorites
Fashion + beauty + random:
I bought the kids their new lunch boxes. This is the one I use for Liv and this is P’s. We have been fans of Bentgo lunch boxes for years and they last a long time and don’t leak.
This is a very random but exciting purchase of the week: I got a prescription snorkel mask on Amazon. I can actually see the fish when we snorkel! Because of my experience with my eyes, I learned that you should never swim with contact lenses, which is fine because I wear prescription sunglasses, but I can never go underwater and see anything. This was a total game changer!
(I’ll spare you the ridiculous photo the pilot took of me wearing the mask and laughing out loud with joy.)
Peeling olivesI’ve been using this as a gentle exfoliator. It’s unscented and works well, but it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin.
Amazon Favorites. Here are this year’s Prime Day bestsellers!
This camera – It’s a great gift for pre-teens.
These are the Pilot’s everyday shoes. (They are SO light and I kind of want some lol)
This fool of the Free People. I get compliments every time I use this.
Read, watch, listen:
I started this a couple days ago and it’s everything I like in a book. It’s a historical novel inspired by a true story, with deep character development and beautiful writing. I feel like I can’t read it fast enough.
Don’t forget to check out this week’s podcast episode here.
Lots of summer book recommendations here.
What do you like most about your childhood home?
Fitness, health, life and good nutrition:
Last week we celebrated my grandmother’s birthday. We had lunch with her at Little Anthony’s and the next day we had an amazing 85th birthday celebration at Tanque Verde Ranch. The food was even better than usual (which says a lot because we love their food) and we loved celebrating the birthday girl.
No-rep HIIT workout.
Maybe a short workout before bed isn’t a bad idea?
Have a great weekend and see you soon! Have a wonderful weekend, friends!
hugs and kisses
