Lest we forget that these lists started as a result of a global lockdown, let this article on the “Patchwork Pandemic” give you great perspective.
Workouts
- Free 30-minute pilates class/challenge for 6 days this week (started Monday, but turns out you’re supposed to do the same class all 6 days anyway?) Details at 100WITHME.COM
- BFree is opening back up for limited yoga classes at social distance! I cannot wait to go back … yoga at home is hard.
- I built the squat rack. Naysayers, it works great:
Entertainment
- LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST/watch the YouTube of my bestie being a complete badass talking about her venture-backed tech company—she’s CEO!
- No new football and dating podcast link for you YET because we’re recording tonight, so catch up on the last five Sacks and the City pods here.
- I can’t wait to watch Emily in Paris.
- AND Bachelorette premieres next Tuesday!
Wine
- Y’all, October is Texas Wine Month. Idk how long it will last, but right now Central Market is doing 20% off of Texas wine. Wines I love from local wineries like Austin Winery and Southold Farm + Cellar are already cheaper at CM, so at an every further discount they are a steal. Texans, get to Central Market stat.
- On the other hand, my beloved Balanza Vineyard in Willamette is putting their fabulous rosé on sale for $198 per case + $20 shipping ($218 = $18/bottle which is a screamin’ deal) AND donating $20 per purchase to support wildfire relief efforts in Oregon. BUY IT NOW HERE.
Shop, Shoppin’ away…
- Can’t decide if I’m embarrassed or if this is just normal pandemic behavior: literally purchased 4 pairs of joggers from Senita. Love them all. I mean, honestly, what other pants am I gonna wear this winter anyway? Post coming soon with pics but in the meantime, 10% off Senita here.
- Love Schitt’s Creek? I’m diggin’ this Rose Apothecary (which is my dream store to run) sweatshirt.
Shopping update: a couple weeks ago I recommended Wondercide dirty hippie mosquito spray, but upon further review, for some reason the Cedarwood scent does NOT work for me. Lemongrass still does. But just in case you’re like my dad and about to order three bottles of Cedarwood, maybe take a think on that one…
