Hey, hey! I’m coming to you from the passenger seat on the road just north of Portland. We are Bend bound for another birthday weekend – Cameron turns 26 on Tuesday and we are going to celebrate with lots of hikes and Bend Ale Trail check-ins this weekend. I hope you are have a great weekend planned with plenty of ways to stay dry; fall has definitively arrived in the PNW this week.
Thought: Some wise words that will always ring true, coming to you from my favorite online workout duo.
Gist: As someone who is very much a logical nerd at heart, I LOVE finding articles that provide scientific evidence for a concept that I already just knew. This article is very approachable read about why it helps our brains to sleep on a challenging problem or difficult decision. I can’t tell you how many times I was stuck on a tough issue at work, slept on it, and had an idea that led me right to the solution in the morning.
Image: Enjoying a Friday night pizza date downtown last week at La Gitana. When we went shortly after opening in May it was pretty quiet and each time that we’ve returned since it’s been busier and busier – awesome to see local businesses thriving downtown .
Find: I was lucky enough to fine a rose gold iPhone 7 this week so, naturally, I needed a new case. I was thrilled to find a pink sparkly case BUT the glitter is suspended in water making it somehow even better. A phone case is such a simple thing but this ones makes me smile each time I pull it out of my purse.
Soul-food Saturday: Try something new in your town this weekend – if that’s taking a walk around a local park you’ve never been too, going to a local festival, or hitting up Yelp for a highly-rated restaurant you’ve never heard of. Be a tourist in your hometown!
