Happy, happy Friday!

Y’all, I can’t remember the last time I was able to get five posts up in a week! I didn’t think I was going to be able to pull it off, but the ideas kept coming. I have a feeling next week will be slightly different as I am heading to Chicago this weekend for my cousin’s bachelorette party! (Aka, there will be no time to blog—only time to celebrate the bride!) My sister and two other cousins will also be there, and I am excited to have a fun girls weekend on the town and eat some deep dish pizza. I’ll be sharing more over on Instagram throughout the weekend, so be sure to follow along there.

This week was super busy and the first part of the week was a little rough because I stayed up late two nights in a row to finish Eligible. And by late, I mean like 2 am. So I definitely paid the price, but after going to bed at 9 pm the subsequent evening, I got back on track and feel well rested going into what sure is to be a sleep-light weekend. I was also able to try out Brine in Mosaic, and if you’re local, I can’t recommend it enough! My bff from forever and I enjoyed a Monday night catch up session here and since it was the first day of spring, I obviously opted for the rosé.

Another highlight was that I took a spin class at a studio on the way home from my office and loved it. Well, let’s be real, I hated a lot of it in the moment, but felt so good after that I am going to try to make it a weekly thing. I’ll keep y’all posted on how that goes! I won’t keep you from the links any longer, but I hope whatever you’re up to this weekend, it’s a good one! x
