It felt like life back to normal this week. Plus The Bachelor started again! Are you watching? Any favorites so far?
I spent all week working on a presentation for work that was due Friday and I’m happy to report I got it done and it went well! Since that took up basically all my time, I skipped book club this week. I also didn’t read the book so it wasn’t like I was going to be participating a whole lot. The next book they picked is called The Joy of Movement by Kelly McGonigal. I’m not sure I’ll read this one either but we’ll see. It’s about how exercise helps us find happiness, hope, connection and courage. TBD.
ICYMI — I shared the best of 2019 this week. My favorites and yours!
best sellers
Soft A&F Tee — a great basic that I wear almost every day 🤷🏼♀️
Tula Purifying Face Cleanser — the best face wash. I’m working on an updated skincare routine to share, and this is my go-to daily cleanser.

recipes we tried
Upside Down Loaded Chicken Nachos — so good 🙌🏼 but I also LOVE nachos. These used salsa chicken, beans and cheese. Super basic and super delicious.
Barbecue Chicken — made on the cast iron skillet; it had the char of a barbecue without all the extra work.
Hamburgers with Mac n Cheese — we did the burgers on the skillet (amazing!) and the mac-n-cheese was in the pressure cooker. It was the easiest homemade macaroni and cheese ever. And it was really delicious — even for the next few days as left overs.
