Friday night we celebrated my father-in-law’s birthday at his home with his closest family and friends. We had a really good time, and the highlight of the evening was watching old family slides projected on his living room’s wall. Really special. Another highlight? Reconnecting with cousins that we love very very much.
This concept is just killer. I am always looking for new, fun and unique ways to work out. Unfortunately, bobbing on an elliptical machine for 45 minutes just does not do it for me. I get bored and restless at about the 6 minute mark. Cue Derby Lite! It’s a workout based on roller derby, only without the aggressive hits. Each 2-hour workout includes off-skates conditioning, dynamic warm-ups, on-skates skills and drills, upper body strength exercises and cool-down stretching (aka; not boring). Unfortunately, Derby Lite is not offered in Miami (wah!), but you can submit a form requesting that your city be added. I did, and you should too!
I have a whole lot of beautiful, wonderful and talented friends in California. One of the many reasons I head over there a whole lot. I just can’t handle not seeing them on a regular basis. I’m greedy like that. Anywho, one of their friends, Todd, filled me in on his hysterical online series, Dealership. The site is chock-full of funny little skits starring Todd (I mean, Freebrook) and his buddies that revolve around their work days adventures at a car dealership.
After watching a few episodes, I was cracking up (need me some of those powerblinds) – definitely reminded me of some sort of spin-off of The Office (that’s a compliment). So check it out, spend some quality time watching the gang and shoot them a line or two about how much you loved it (I know you will!).
Because I never say no to my lovely readers, I decided to also feature the second most popular dude in my open vote for hump day hotties: Jon Hamm! Now I really tried to get into Mad Men, I did. But for some reason, I just couldn’t. I think it’s because all the characters didn’t have any redeeming qualities to them – I just couldn’t find any of them all that lovable. But it appears I’m the only one! America is completely enamored with the show and its leading man, Mr. Jon Hamm. And I can’t say I really blame them on that tip. He’s quite the stunner. See evidence below! 😉
Since a few of you expressed that you didn’t want me to stop my outfit posts, I decided to occasionally feature one from time to time. It’s very time-consuming to make these kind of posts every day, so I totally give all my favorite fashion bloggers major props for the dedication.
But I digress.
On St. Patrick’s Day, I was inspired by the lovely Kendi and her recent jean stylings. I adored how she was able to pair exaggerated flares with a tucked in top; something I had never thought of doing…until now! I also attempted to rock the messy “sex hair” – AKA; I was too lazy to straighten my hair. Don’t know if I was able to pull it off though – I think it looked more like I needed to be gifted a brush.
