I dream of sashimi + Friday Faves

Hi friends! Happy Friday! Latest post on the Family page is here. 

What’s going on this weekend? We don’t have many plans (Livi has more plans than we do between a party and ballet) and it will be nice to relax and get some things done around the house. I’ve already requested to be beach bums all day on Sunday, so that’s where we’ll be.

Beach 1 of 1

I want to float in the water and feel buoyant for a second, especially since I’ve been shuffling around the house lately. I’m also excited to take a barre class and FINALLY hit up the new Cafe Gratitude! I still can’t believe I haven’t been yet, and am so excited.

Last time I was there (at the San Francisco location) was in 2010, and I ate this.

We must meet again.

In standard Friday style, here are some of the things I’m loving from the week and around the web. It’s always fun to hear what you’re enjoying, too, so please feel free to join in the fun in the comments section.

    I actually think that the husky is Shiba Inu! The dog looks just like my Shiba Inu, Hank. He often gets called a husky, just like some people think we are walking a fox when they see our other Shiba Inu, Penny.

      we used to have a shiba, and were often asked if she was a fox 🙂 this one was definitely a husky. it’s hard to tell from the pic but he was HUGE. at least 100 lbs

    I would have a hard time giving up sushi if I were pregnant too, but soon again you will be able to! Have a good weekend and don’t float away!

    I just read about the man braids yesterday. Not a fan. If it has to be anything, I vote for the bun.

    • Fitnessista on September 25, 2015 at 11:13 am

      haha i thought it was super weird, too!

  5. Ashley on September 25, 2015 at 12:40 pm

    Have you seen the manbunsofdisneyland account on Instagram??? It’s definitely good for a smile haha
    Also, your workouts are so inspiring!

      I saw a guy there that had mickey shaved into the back of his head under his man bun!

    Hi Gina! A big Happy Friday to you. That’s pretty funny that Livi has more plans than you. That activewear video KILLS me! SO true. “I buy activewear in my activewear.” Granted, I do work out, but still … it’s really only once a week I change into normal clothes these days. So sad. Have a great weekend, friend! 🙂

  7. Alex @ True Femme on September 25, 2015 at 2:06 pm

    You are such a rockstar for doing all of these workouts while you are so far along! You’re my inspiration 🙂 I’m making another batch of the pumpkin bars you posted last week because those were *insane* and I ate most of the first batch in one sitting. But to be fair, I was studying, so it was brain food 😉

    Cute dog. Have you heard of yoyo mats? Here is the link http://www.self.com/fitness/fitness-gear/2015/09/self-rolling-yoga-mat/

    The video is pretty neat! Have a good weekend!

    I love The Real Real! I got a Mulberry bag from there!

    The Real Real?! Uh oh…..

    That activewear video is hysterical. My life. Standard Mom gear haha.
