Weston talks about his birthday 365 days of the year. That's not an exaggeration.
Needless to say, when it became clear that he would be among the Covid birthdays, I knew I had to up my game. A drive by car parade was too much for my brain to coordinate, so...
Enter Stage Right: This balloon arch.
Easy to assemble. Perfectly lovely in its rainbow glory.
The only problem was that I hung it from an awning with some exposed nails, so it doubled as decor and a party thrill when occasionally a balloon would pop, and everyone would scream.
I used a hand pump for the balloons which took quite some time, but my sister in law sent a link to this balloon pump yesterday saying it's a must-have. She's pretty much a balloon arch aficionado, so let's trust her and all get one.
Anyone else perfected this move?
That's right. They don't pull your hair out!! They'll slide up on your head and back down to your face, nary a hair out of line.
A simple search of aviators with closed nosepiece brought me to these. Two weeks in now and zero complaints. I'm digging' 'em. And I'm super into their affordability compared to the Oakleys.
This shampoo (and conditioner, not shown) makes my hair feel great. Soft and silky and gives my bottle blond hue a tish of a pop.
I'm not sure what the purple has to do with it. It's likely the hair product version of Red40 and I'm lathering myself straight into the path of hair cancer. But if silky, fragrant hair is your goal, look no further.
Lemonade Spritzer from Chick Fil A
(no link provided because if you don't know how to find a Chick Fil A, I'm not sure why you're even here.)
I've Pinterested enough to come across the "Secret Starbucks Menu" posts. I'm always intrigued but never bold enough to give it a whirl. I envision the barista eye rolling me like "just order a dang Americana so I can go ahead and spell your name like this: Aaron."
Here's how I order it on my app:
Fill out the special instructions like this:
I used to wear those strappy, armband, phone holder thingies when I ran, but I couldn't find the right tightness to keep it from falling while not cutting my circulation off.
I just use it for my phone, but there are enough hideaways to tuck your lipgloss, keys, pepper spray, Cheese Its, gummy bears, ID (in case you fall out) and any other running essentials.
Perfect size. El cheapo price. Glitter. A straw. Fits the car cup holder.
That's a wrap, folks!
Go get that Lemonade Spritzer and report back.
Ah, I just fought summer traffic to make it to Chick-fil-A BEFORE reading this blog. Dana is a genius because this lemonade spritzer sounds perfect, so next time I’m crazy enough to head towards Destin, I’m ordering this!
Say whaaaat?!? That’s awesome you know the owner! Please pass along how much I have the heart eyes for these new rims of mine!
I love your blog this week! I can’t wait to try the spritzer! I am friends with the owner of JiMarti sunglasses so just know that by buying from him you’re getting a great product AND you are supporting a local business.
