I dream of sashimi + Friday Faves

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

Whatโ€™s going on this weekend? We donโ€™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. Iโ€™ve already requested to be beach bums all day on Sunday, so thatโ€™s where weโ€™ll be.

Beach 1 of 1

I want to float in the water and feel buoyant for a second, especially since Iโ€™ve been shuffling around the house lately. Iโ€™m also excited to take a barre class and FINALLY hit up the new Cafe Gratitude! I still canโ€™t believe I havenโ€™t been yet, and am so excited.

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

Tart

We must meet again.

In standard Friday style, here are some of the things Iโ€™m loving from the week and around the web. Itโ€™s always fun to hear what youโ€™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 ๐Ÿ™‚ 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!

      sushi and wine party is happening ๐Ÿ™‚
      hope you have a great weekend!

    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! ๐Ÿ™‚

  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 ๐Ÿ™‚ 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 ๐Ÿ˜‰

    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!

  9. Erin @ Her Heartland Soul on September 25, 2015 at 3:41 pm

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

  10. Shaina Anderson on September 28, 2015 at 12:29 am

    The Real Real?! Uh oh…..

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