Friday Favorites + Wild Fig + Fashion Finds

Happy Friday! We started the week with heavy rain and record low’s here in New York but now we are back to sunshine and warm temperatures! I am excited about my runs and to get outside this weekend. Nothing makes me happier right now than seeing the earlier sunrises and knowing it’s comfortable out there. I really appreciate this time of year, especially when you compare it to the winter months and what those mornings can be like outside.

Favorite Fitness:

I’m probably going to have to say that Monday’s treadmill run was my favorite workout from this week. It was still rainy and cold so I was indoors on the treadmill but no complaints here – I put in a quality speed workout which we will discuss in further detail in Monday’s workout recap post.

Favorite Food:

Two favorite foods from this week to report!

First, my weekly stop at Mario’s for my favorite whole wheat margarita slice. I keep thinking about last summer when my son was away on his teen tour and I truly didn’t have to think about making any form of a dinner. This slice of pizza with a salad happened many nights a week.

Well, it’s almost that time of year again! My countdown to my son leaving to enjoy himself for a month this summer, and my pizza with salad dinners (among other fun things that I will be doing), is official on. 🙂

We stopped at Wild Fig for dinner the other night. I haven’t had Wild Fig in as long as I can remember, and the last mention (I think) here on the blog is in this post from 2016!

At the last second while they were assembling my salad, I had them add the lentil salad to my bowl which was delicious but a little too much if you want to know the truth. I could have used half the amount to make this salad perfect.

Favorite Funny:

Long Island was voted the least sexy accent in the Country. But New York was voted as number 3? Are we separate from New York? Did I miss something? Do we have a totally different accent from the city? And Staten Island doesn’t have a worse accent? Makes no sense but okay.

Favorite Finds:

A whole range of favorite finds to share this week!

With the bright sun back during my runs and the summer season quickly approaching, it was time for me to grab a new bottle of my favorite Skinceuticals sunscreen. I ordered the sunscreen from Blue Mercury and with my order, came a few new to me product samples. One sample, in particular, was this GLAMGLOW Good in Bed Passionfruit Softening Night Cream. I LOVE IT. I never used GLAMGLOW before and now I see what the hype is all about. This night cream is well priced and within one use, I saw such a positive difference in my skin. I think I am going to purchase it as soon as my sample runs out!

From Abercombie, since I loved this caftan coverup so much in the black, I ordered it in the white. I am now set with swim cover-ups for summer. Also, I bought this lace bralette in white. I love how it fits and may get another color. Bralettes are great for summer.

I’m seeing a lot of denim and denim dresses trending for this season. I like this Sanctuary cap sleeve denim shirt dress and also, love these distressed denim joggers from Bella Dahl!

Midi-length dresses are not usually my thing but I keep looking at this black spaghetti strap midi dress from Aqua.

Totally love these metallic heart print leggings with matching sports bra (on sale!) – perfect for Pure Barre.
